Frequently asked questions
- Is deoxyribonuclease safe for baby skin?
- No infant‑specific reproductive or developmental hazard data were found; hazard and mechanism remain 0. Exposure was rated 1 for baby skin because while adult topical absorption is expected negligible, infants have immature barrier and higher surface‑area/weight so small proteins with any measurable absorption get a +1 exposure uplift per the requested rules. No data show infant systemic uptake from cosmetic use. (ECHA product/registration listings; EWG ingredient page; lack of SCCS/CIR evaluations.).
