Whether you can get leukemia from living in a house with formaldehyde is mainly related to the concentration of formaldehyde.
High concentrations of formaldehyde pollution (≥1.0mg/m³) can cause cell mutation, leukemia or other cancer development, and also irritate the respiratory tract with symptoms such as edema and bronchial asthma. Long-term inhalation of low concentrations (≥0.08mg/m³) of formaldehyde can cause chronic poisoning, mucous membrane congestion, skin irritation, allergic dermatitis, pain in the nail bed fingertips, and may be accompanied by headache, fatigue, poor appetite, palpitations, insomnia, weight loss and systemic symptoms such as plant nervous disorders, and may even cause cell mutations and leukemia.
Therefore, we must test the concentration of formaldehyde in the house before moving into the room, and make it clear that the concentration of formaldehyde in the air in the room is less than 0.08mg/m?before moving in.
