Frequently asked questions
- Is isopentane safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of developmental or infant-specific toxicity is available and no reproductive hazard classification exists. However, because infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and a less mature barrier, exposure score is increased by +1: although isopentane is volatile and largely evaporates, measurable dermal/inhalation exposure to a baby (0–3 yr) could occur with inappropriate use (close facial application, aerosol sprays, poor ventilation).
