¿Es benzalkonium chloride seguro para la piel del bebé?
There is no authoritative reproductive/ developmental classification for benzalkonium chloride. However, as a cationic surfactant with some dermal penetration potential and known skin irritancy/corrosivity hazards (ECHA Annex VI: H314), infant exposure via topical application is of greater concern because infant skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and a less mature barrier. Therefore exposure scoring is increased by one (adult e=1 → infant e=2). Additionally, irritation/corrosion risk is relevant for infant skin even where systemic reproductive hazard is not indicated.
