Dois-je éviter silver pendant la grossesse ? | VeriMom
Silver (CAS 7440-22-4) has a harmonised CLP classification in Annex VI as Repr. Cat. 2 H361f (suspected of damaging fertility) for multiple physical forms, so reproductive hazard is indicated (h=2). Animal and mechanistic data (ionic silver/Ag+ and nanosilver biodistribution; PBPK and developmental/reproductive studies with silver salts and nanoparticles) show demonstrated systemic distribution and effects in rodents, supporting a mechanistic concern (m=2). For routine topical cosmetic use, skin absorption of particle forms is low (SCCS notes micron-sized particulate silver does not penetrate intact skin), so exposure from typical topical use is low but measurable (elevated for soluble/ionic forms and some nanoparticles) (e=1).

- Silver (CAS 7440-22-4) has a harmonised CLP classification in Annex VI as Repr.

- silver est-il sûr pendant l'allaitement ?
- Harmonised classification (H361f) and animal data justify a suspected reproductive hazard also relevant to lactation exposures (h=2). Mechanistic and PK literature document systemic absorption/distribution of ionic silver and some nanoparticle transformation with potential for transfer to tissues (m=2). Available data on topical cosmetics indicate low dermal absorption for particulate silver, so milk exposure from typical topical use is expected to be low but not zero (e=1).
- silver est-il sûr pour la peau de bébé ?
- Hazard scoring remains based on the harmonised H361f classification and supporting animal/mechanistic evidence (h=2, m=2). Because infant skin has a higher surface-area-to-weight ratio and an immature barrier, exposure from topical application is increased by +1 compared with adults when measurable absorption exists; therefore exposure for baby skin is scored e=2. There is limited evidence for direct infant-specific developmental effects from topical cosmetic exposures, but systemic ionic silver and some nanosilver forms have produced reproductive/developmental effects in animal studies.
