Frequently asked questions

Is dilauryl citrate safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR reproductive safety restriction found for dilauryl citrate (CAS 25637-88-1). Searches of regulatory databases (CosIng, PubChem) and the literature (PubMed) reveal no reproductive toxicity or teratogenicity studies indicating hazard; EWG lists minimal data/low concern. Therefore default 'no evidence of reproductive hazard' applies.
Is dilauryl citrate safe while breastfeeding?
No data found on lactation/breastmilk transfer or reproductive hazards. No regulatory flags (CIR/SCCS/harmonised CLP). Given the lack of evidence, no breastfeeding-specific hazard or mechanism is identified.
Is dilauryl citrate safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific data. Dilauryl citrate is a relatively large esterified emollient agent (low intrinsic reactivity) with no published dermal systemic/toxicity signals; no harmonised classification or SCCS/CIR concerns. Dermal absorption data for adults or infants were not found, so default 'no evidence of hazard' is used. (No increase in exposure score applied due to absence of measurable absorption data.)
