“…15,18 Individuals with acatalasia lack catalase activity, leading to high endogenous H 2 O 2 levels causing necrosis and ulceration of soft and hard tissues. 19 Hydrogen peroxide toxicity Thirty per cent H 2 O 2 can cause severe irritation or burns on contact with skin or eyes.…”

“…Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) was first isolated in 1818 by reacting barium peroxide with nitric acid (5). Hydrogen peroxide, alone or in combination with salts, has been used in dentistry for over 70 years for instance in the treatment of peri‐coronitis caused by anaerobic microorganisms.…”

“…Peroxide that creates an aerobic atmosphere is destructive to these microorganisms. No hazard is likely to be associated with the long‐term use of H 2 O 2 at concentrations found in oral care products (5).…”
The results of this pilot study showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the H(2)O(2)/glycerol group and the placebo group with respect to plaque inhibition within this study design.
“…Hydrogen peroxide degrades within hours of addition [221][222][223][224], is not considered to be carcinogenic [225] and is unlikely to impact signiicantly upon aquatic biota at the concentrations required for cyanobacterial removal [177,226,227]. Hydrogen peroxide should not pose a risk to ecosystems or humans if treated eluent is discharged to the environment or for reuse.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
