Receipt papers, particularly thermal paper, often contain Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical utilized for its color-developing properties. When BPA is present in receipt papers, it is not bound or fixed in the material, leading to its easy transfer upon contact. This is a concern as BPA is known to be an endocrine disruptor, capable of mimicking the body's hormones and potentially leading to negative health effects including reproductive issues, brain development problems in children, and an increased risk of certain types of cancers. Handling receipt papers with clean hands increases the likelihood of BPA absorption through the skin. Moreover, clean hands, especially if they are moist or oily, can enhance this absorption rate.
