Detection of Fluorescent Whitening Agents in
Pharmaceutical Packaging Materials
Fluorescent whitening agents (FWAs) are organic compounds that can absorb
invisible ultraviolet light and excite visible blue-violet fluorescence, increasing the
total amount of light reflection to achieve whitening and brightening effects.
Numerous medical tests have proved that FWAs are potential carcinogenic factors
and can be harmful to human health, while FWAs are also potentially harmful to the
environment. Therefore, there is a need to test drug packaging materials for
fluorescent whitening agents. CD Formulation can provide relevant testing services
and test data to help customers provide safer and more environmentally friendly drug
packaging and promote the process of drug commercialization.
