Photodegradation of Tattoo Pigment - Methyl Orange Example

Learn how pigments degrade in light! The example pigment was shown because it was the easiest to draw but this breakdown happens with tons of other like substances.
Red 112, Orange 13, and other AZO dyes all act like this and can result in nasty stuff getting into our drinking water, and into our bodies.
Be sure to start storing your tattoo pigments in a dark cabinet after watching this!

This is legit. Question, would storing your tattoo pigments in a display cabinet with say a polarized glass or something work? Ya know, for shop aesthetics.

[@BetterTattooing]

Good question! Using the same type of glass or filters they use to protect works of art (like in museums) can absolutely work! Here is an article that talks about exposed pigments outside of suspensions/dried -> www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0143720822009214 This may also give us a better understanding as to why melanin is so good at decreasing the breakdown of certain colors🤘
