Frequently asked questions
- Is hydrolyzed wheat bran safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or reproductive hazard (h=0, m=0). Topical exposure absorption for large peptides/protein hydrolysates is expected to be low in adults (adult e considered negligible), but infant/0–3 yr skin has higher relative permeability so exposure score increased by +1 per instructions. Note: potential for skin sensitization/contact allergy (wheat allergy) exists but is separate from reproductive concerns.
