¿Es ceratonia siliqua gum seguro durante el embarazo?
Ceratonia siliqua gum (locust bean/ carob gum) is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide used as a topical thickener/emulsifier and is not listed in ECHA Annex VI with any harmonised reproductive classifications; no CIR or SCCS safety assessments identify reproductive hazard and peer-reviewed literature does not report reproductive or teratogenic effects from topical use. Given very low percutaneous absorption of large polysaccharides, systemic exposure in pregnancy from cosmetic topical use is negligible (CosIng, PubChem, CIR).

- ¿Es ceratonia siliqua gum seguro durante el embarazo?
- Ceratonia siliqua gum (locust bean/ carob gum) is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide used as a topical thickener/emulsifier and is not listed in ECHA Annex VI with any harmonised reproductive classifications; no CIR or SCCS safety assessments identify reproductive hazard and peer-reviewed literature does not report reproductive or teratogenic effects from topical use. Given very low percutaneous absorption of large polysaccharides, systemic exposure in pregnancy from cosmetic topical use is negligible (CosIng, PubChem, CIR).
- ¿Es ceratonia siliqua gum seguro durante la lactancia?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity in authoritative reviews; mechanism for mammary gland transfer or effects is not described in the literature and the ingredient’s large molecular size predicts negligible oral/systemic bioavailability from topical use (CosIng, PubChem, CIR).
- ¿Es ceratonia siliqua gum seguro para la piel del bebé?
- No data indicating developmental or dermal toxicity in infants; ingredient is generally considered safe as a cosmetic thickener (CIR/CosIng) and not systemically hazardous. However, because infant skin has higher permeability and surface-area-to-weight ratio, a conservative increase in exposure score (+1) is applied despite negligible adult absorption; no infant-specific adverse effects reported in available sources.
