VeriMom¿Debo evitar basic green 4 durante el embarazo? | VeriMom
ECHA has a harmonised CLP entry for malachite green (Basic Green 4, CAS 569-64-2) with a reproductive/developmental suspect classification (H361d — 'suspected of damaging the unborn child'), so reproductive hazard is judged as 'suspected'. Animal and in vitro studies report developmental effects and show that the metabolite leucomalachite green (LMG) is present in dam plasma and amniotic fluid, supporting a plausible mechanism (placental exposure). Topical/cosmetic exposure would likely give low but measurable systemic exposure if used, so exposure score is 1. (ECHA Annex/CLP; rat developmental study).

- ¿Es basic green 4 seguro durante la lactancia?
- Harmonised classification for developmental hazard (H361d) and animal data demonstrating maternal systemic exposure and placental/biological transfer (LMG detected in amniotic fluid) indicate suspected risk to the developing offspring; while direct human lactation studies are lacking, demonstrated maternal systemic absorption/metabolism supports a plausible mechanism for transfer into milk. Typical topical cosmetic use would likely give low but measurable maternal exposure (score 1).
- ¿Es basic green 4 seguro para la piel del bebé?
- Hazard (H361d) and animal developmental/toxicity data justify the same hazard score for infant skin exposure (do not escalate h/m without infant-specific toxicity data). Mechanistic evidence (LMG in maternal plasma/amniotic fluid) supports m=2. Because infant skin has higher absorption/surface-area-to-weight, exposure score is increased by +1 versus adult topical (adult e=1 → infant e=2). Note: the substance is listed as prohibited in EU cosmetic Annex II / disallowed in baby products in multiple lists, reflecting regulatory precaution.
