What is Sodium Tetraborate?
About Sodium Tetraborate
Sodium tetraborate, commonly known as borax, is a chemical compound used in various industrial applications, including as a cleaning agent and insecticide.
In the body, sodium tetraborate can be absorbed through ingestion or dermal exposure. However, it is not a substance that should naturally accumulate at significant levels in the human body.
Ingesting large amounts of sodium tetraborate can be toxic, leading to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal distress.
