Ada info dari milist lain dibawah ini, komentar dari staff Kesehatan dan
Keselamatan Kerja (K3) yang biasa berhubungan dengan bahan beracun dan
berbahaya (B3) di perusahaan, walaupun ada perbedaan prosentase kandungan
formalinnya.

Subject: RE: [Lingk] Konfirmasi - Formalin TETAP BERBAHAYA (Toxic &
Carcinogenic!)
Bapak/Ibu, dan Mas Andri, Mudah-mudahan ini bisa membantu
Harap berhati-hati dengan INFORMASI YANG BOHONG (TDK MASUK AKAL) jangan
silau dengan gelar si penulis, jadi informasi tsb bukan teori baru!!!
Sebenarnya artikel yang sama saya dapatkan dari mailist K3LH
(Keselamtan Kerja, Kesehtan Kerja dan Lindungan Lingkungan), kemarin sdh
saya
forward ke mailist tercinta ini, lengkap dgn komentar saya. Namun karena
e-mail saya msh bouncing, jadi entah mental ke mana. Tetapi menurut
pendapat saya formalin (larutan 37% formaldehyde) sangat membahayakan
bagi kesehatan manusia, info di bawah ini perlu pembuktian dengan
penelitian yang valid (bukan asal-asalan), dan bisa menyesatkan. Baik
terhirup
maupun tertelan akan sama-sama berbahayanya. Mayat manusia atau hewan
akan awet bertahun-tahun kalau sdh direndam larutan formalin (37%
larutan formaldehyde), itu saja sdh menjadi bukti bahwa formalin merupakan
senyawa kimia yang stabil (tdk mudah terurai). Waspadalah terhadap info
yang menyesatkan, meski mungkin mengatas-namakan perguruan tinggi. Bukti
bisa dilihat pada MSDS (Material Safety Data sheet)-nya formalin (37%
larutan formaldehyde). Kesimpulan: Larutan Formalin bersifat racun
(toxic) dan dpt menyebabkan kanker (carcinogenic). Dipersilahkan membaca
sendiri MSDS-nya (maaf msh dalam English version). MSDS adalah dokumen
penting suatu bahan kimia (secara Internasional sudah standardized),
lengkap dengan informasi kandungan utamanya, kalau terkena tubuh manusia
atau tertelan apa yang harus dilakukan, ada informasi bahan kimia tsb
beracun, karsinogenik, mudah meledak, mudah terbakar, bagaimana cara
menyimpan, mengangkut, persyaratan wadah, dstnya. Standar di perusahaan
kami, setiap vendor yang akan mengirim bahan kimia wajib dilengkapi
dokumen MSDS, tanpa itu bakal ditolak.

Halo,membaca informasi tersebut cukup menggembirakan bagi masyarakat, tetapi praktek pengawetan makanan dengan menggunakan formalin menurut saya tetaplah tidak bisa dibenarkan. selain itu sekaang yang menjadi masalah apakah benar formalin hanya membahayakan peternak seperti yang dikatakan dalam artikel tersebut ? karena ada proses-proses lain yang juga menggunakan formalin, sekarang yang perlu mendapatkan perhatian adalah para pekerja yang dalam proses produksinya menggunakan formalin. mereka berisiko untuk menghirup uap formalin dan kontak kulit dengan formalin. Jadi jangan terburu-buru mengatakan tidak berbahaya aja...
