摘要

我们最感兴趣的是最近一篇题为“炭黑-苯并(a)芘复合物诱导大鼠肺泡巨噬细胞凋亡和自噬阻断”的文章(Meng et al. 2020)。我们想指出文章中的一个重要错误,作者错误地指出,炭黑存在于烹饪食物和燃烧生物质和化石燃料形成的烟雾中。作者在他们的摘要中引用了以下错误的陈述:“烹饪食物以及在炉子中燃烧生物质和化石燃料是烹饪烟雾的主要来源,炭黑和多环芳烃是主要成分。”与作者的断言相反,炭黑(CAS 1333-86-4)不是通过烹饪形成的,而是一种定义明确的化学物质,是在工业规模上有意制造的。它是在严格控制的工艺条件下,由碳氢原料在高温下热解而成。在制造炭黑的封闭炉黑过程中(这是主要的制造过程),预热的原料(通常是从汽油生产中滗出的油),预热的空气和气体进入一个封闭的反应器,其中在1400-1800℃发生部分燃烧。富含碳的产品用水淬火,并通过热交换器预热燃烧空气。改变反应器温度和/或停留时间会产生不同等级的炭黑(Wang et al. 2003;McCunney et al. 2012)。在我们看来,Meng等人(2020)将炭黑与黑碳(也称为煤烟)混淆了,根据定义,黑碳是化石燃料和生物质不完全燃烧时不希望产生的含碳副产品。黑碳或煤烟的人为来源包括住宅燃烧源,如发达国家的油炉、壁炉和柴炉,以及发展中国家的简单炉灶和明火。虽然炭黑几乎完全由纯元素碳组成(>97%),但黑碳或煤烟是一种非均质材料,由不到60%的元素碳,大部分无机杂质(灰分和金属)和一系列有机碳组成(Watson和Valberg 2001;Long, Nascarella, and Valberg 2013)。因此,声称使用工业生产的炭黑进行的毒理学研究在任何方面都反映了烹饪油烟的潜在毒性,这是一种误导。

Carbon black is not black carbon
We were most interested to read the recent article entitled ‘Carbon black-benzo(a)pyrene complex-induced apoptosis and autophagy blockage in rat alveolar macrophages’ (Meng et al. 2020). We would like to point out an important error in the article, in which the authors incorrectly state that carbon black is present in fumes formed by cooking foods and the burning of biomass and fossil fuels. The authors lead their abstract with the following incorrect statement: ‘Cooking of foods and the burning of biomass and fossil fuels in stoves are the main sources of cooking fumes, with carbon black and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as main components.’ Contrary to the authors’ assertions, carbon black (CAS 1333-86-4) is not formed from cooking, but instead is a well-defined chemical substance that is intentionally manufactured on an industrial scale. It is formed by the pyrolysis of hydrocarbon feedstocks at high temperatures under strictly controlled process conditions. In the enclosed furnace black process of manufacturing carbon black (which is the major manufacturing process), preheated feedstock (typically decant oil from gasoline production), preheated air, and gas enter a closed reactor in which partial combustion at 1400–1800 C takes place. The carbon-rich product is quenched with water and passed through heat exchangers that preheat the combustion air. Altering the reactor temperatures and/or residence times produces the different grades of carbon black (Wang et al. 2003; McCunney et al. 2012). In our view, Meng et al. (2020) are mistaking carbon black with black carbon – also referred to as soot – which by definition, is an undesired carbonaceous byproduct of incomplete combustion of fossil fuels and biomass. Anthropogenic sources of black carbon or soot include residential combustion sources, such as oil furnaces, fireplaces, and woodstoves in developed countries, and simple cookstoves and open fires in developing countries. While carbon black consists almost exclusively of pure elemental carbon (>97%), black carbon or soot is a heterogeneous material consisting of less than 60% elemental carbon, a large portion of inorganic impurities (ash and metals) and a range of organic carbon species (Watson and Valberg 2001; Long, Nascarella, and Valberg 2013). Therefore, it is misleading to state that the toxicology studies conducted using industrially-produced carbon black are in any way reflective of the potential toxicity of cooking fumes.
