john_markanich Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 <p>If you think chemicals are bad, do an inventory of what substances are contained in computers, monitors, printers and cameras (which are really nothing more than computers with a lens hanging off the front). Put them in a landfill, ferment with some rain water so it gets down real deep in the aquifers and get back to us.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_rockwood Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 <p>Are there epidemiological studies on users vs. non-users of dark room chemicals? Are there other valid scientific studies on the health hazards of properly used darkroom chemicals?</p> <p>That is the information that is really relevant to the conversation. All else is anecdote and speculation. Interesting conversation perhaps, but not enlightening.</p> <p>By the way, I am referring to proper use of the chemicals. Getting people to use chemical properly is not always easy and is another story.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowland_mowrey Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Triethanol Amine is found in skin creams and lotions, Alum is used in making pickles, p-phenylene diamines are used in hair dyes, etc etc.. This is a "scare" site. Ron Mowrey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfcole Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 <p>William,<br> Why would you have a reason to fear shampoo? If there were an epidemic of scalp cancer or dermatitis I'd understand, but it doesn't seem to be an issue for most people. I'm still more worried about texting drivers.<br> Scott</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowland_mowrey Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Alan; There are studies at Kodak on the subject of "users vs non-users" of photographic chemicals. All of us at EK had blood work done about every 6 months. There was no correlation with any particular cancer. We got it or didn't just like the rest of the population.
