Frequently asked questions
- Is sutilains safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism: no infant-specific toxicology found. Exposure: scored +1 vs adult because adult topical absorption is negligible for a large proteolytic enzyme, but infant skin has an immature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight — so a low but measurable relative exposure risk is plausible even when adult absorption is negligible. Note: enzymes can cause local irritation or sensitisation (not scored here because this rubric addresses reproductive hazard/mechanism), and infant skin may be more reactive.
