İndigo denim kumaşların renklendirilmesinde kullanılan bir boyarmaddedir. Doğal indigo 6.000 yıldan, sentetik indigo ise 150 yıldan fazla bir süredir tekstil boyası olarak kullanılmasına rağmen indigo'nun yan etkileri ve toksisitesi hakkında çok az araştırma raporu bulunmaktadır. Bu derlemede boyahanelerdeki indigo boyarmadde tozlarının çalışan sağlığı üzerine yapacağı olumsuz sağlık sorunlarının neler olabileceği araştırılmıştır. Dünyada üretilen yaklaşık 25 milyon ton pamuğun yüzde 20’si denim kumaşların üretiminde kullanılıyor olması ve bunların renklendirilmesinde indigo boyarmaddesine ihtiyaç duyulması nedeniyle tonlarca indigo boyarmadde tozları ile çalışanlar üretin sürecinde karşı karşıya kalacak demektir. Bu durumun sonuçlarının halk sağlığı açısından kritik bir öneme sahip olduğu düşünülmektedir. İndigo boyarmadde tozlarının işyeri ortam havasına yayılması sonucu çalışanların karşılaşabileceği sağlık sorunları hakkında literatürde belirtilmiş olan araştırma ve bulguları bir çatı altında toplayarak işverenin, çalışanların, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği uzmanlarının ve işyeri hekimi ve diğer sağlık personellerinin farkındalıklarının artırılması beklenmektedir.

Effect of Indigo Dye Powder on Employee Health of Denim Factory

Öz

Indigo is a dyestuff used to color denim. Although natural indigo has been used as a textile dye for over 6,000 years and synthetic indigo for more than 150 years, there are few research reports on the side effects and toxicity of indigo. In this review, it has been investigated what negative health problems can be caused by indigo dyestuff powders in dyehouses on employee health. Because 20 percent of the world's approximately 25 million tons of cotton is used in the production of denim fabrics and indigo dyestuff is required for coloring them, those who work with tons of dye powder will be confronted during the production process. The consequences of this situation are thought to be of critical importance in terms of public health. It is hoped that the awareness of employers, employees, occupational health and safety specialists and workplace physicians will be increased by gathering the research and findings stated in the literature about the health problems that employees may encounter due to this dust spreading into the workplace.
