Frequently asked questions

Is c12-18 acid triglyceride safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification for reproductive toxicity, no SCCS or CIR finding of reproductive hazard for triglyceride-type emollients, and no peer-reviewed data indicating teratogenicity for C12–C18 triglycerides; therefore default hazard=0. (Sources consulted: ECHA Annex VI/C&L — no harmonised H360/H361 entries; CIR general safety conclusions on fatty esters/triglycerides; PubChem/GHS shows no reproductive classification.)
Is c12-18 acid triglyceride safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity, and triglycerides are metabolized to common dietary fatty acids and glycerol; breastmilk transfer or toxic effects via lactation have not been reported for C12–C18 triglycerides. (Sources: CIR, PubChem, CosIng/EU database — no warnings.)
Is c12-18 acid triglyceride safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism remain 0 (no evidence of reproductive or endocrine activity). Exposure rated higher (+1) versus adults because triglycerides are not completely non‑absorbable and infant skin has higher permeability and surface‑area‑to‑weight; thus modest measurable absorption is plausible. (Sources: general safety entries in CIR/CosIng and PubChem; no harmonised CLP reproductive flags.)
