- Is sodium soyate safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive hazard or specific infant toxicity. Adult dermal systemic exposure from a soap-like fatty acid salt is negligible (e=0), but because infant skin has a higher surface-area-to-weight ratio and less mature barrier, exposure score is increased by +1 for babies (e=1). No infant-specific mechanistic or hazard data found.
