Recent investigations have revealed a concerning issue regarding the safety of nylon kitchen utensils. The migration of primary aromatic amines, which are known contaminants, has been detected in these utensils.

Primary aromatic amines are organic compounds that can pose health risks if they migrate from food contact materials into food items.
