Frequently asked questions

Is sodium lauryl glycol carboxylate safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS or CIR safety assessment flagging reproductive hazard, and no clear reproductive toxicity data in available databases searched (PubMed, PubChem, ECHA C&L). Under the calibration rules, absence of evidence and no harmonised flags default to h=0; no mechanism or notable systemic exposure data found so m=0/e=0.
Is sodium lauryl glycol carboxylate safe while breastfeeding?
No authoritative sources (harmonised CLP, SCCS, CIR) indicate toxicity for lactation or transfer to breastmilk. No peer‑reviewed evidence located showing breastmilk transfer or effects on suckling infants, so default scores are 0 per source-priority rules.
Is sodium lauryl glycol carboxylate safe for baby skin?
No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants (h=0, m=0). Exposure score increased to e=1 for babies versus adults because infant skin has higher surface-area‑to‑weight and an immature barrier; in absence of definitive data showing zero dermal absorption, the guidance calls for +1 exposure for 0–3 yr.
