FAQ

¿Es diethyl phthalate seguro durante el embarazo?

Phthalates are endocrine disruptors with documented reproductive and developmental effects. Avoid during pregnancy.

¿Es diethyl phthalate seguro durante la lactancia?

Same rationale as pregnancy: animal reproductive/lactational multi‑generation studies show effects at high doses and DEP metabolites are measurable in human matrices; topical cosmetic use gives low but measurable systemic exposure and therefore potential for transfer during lactation. CIR/SCCS found cosmetic uses acceptable, but animal and biomonitoring data support a 'suspected' concern. (See CIR, CICAD/NTP, human placenta/urine studies).

¿Es diethyl phthalate seguro para la piel del bebé?

Hazard and mechanism scores kept same as adults because evidence of reproductive/developmental effects exists in animals and metabolites cross maternal tissues; per instructions exposure (e) increased by +1 for babies due to immature skin barrier and measurable absorption from topical use. Cosmetic exposure to DEP is low but detectable in humans (urinary metabolites), so infant dermal exposure is non‑negligible. (See PubMed multi‑generation studies, placental/metabolite studies, CIR).
