“Toughen Up”: Tattoo Experience and Secretory Immunoglobulin A
AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HUMAN BIOLOGY 00:00–00 (2016) Original Research Article Tattooing to “Toughen Up”: Tattoo Experience and Secretory Immunoglobulin A CHRISTOPHER D. LYNN,* JOHNNA T. DOMINGUEZ, AND JASON A. DECARO Department of Anthropology, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487 Objectives: A costly signaling model suggests tattooing inoculates the immune system to heightened vigilance against stressors associated with soft tissue damage. We sought to investigate this “inoculation hypothesis” of tattooing as a costly honest signal of fitness. We hypothesized that the immune system habituates to the tattooing stressor in repeatedly tattooed individuals and that immune response to the stress of the tattooing process would correlate with lifetime tattoo experience. Methods: Participants were 24 women and 5 men (aged 18–47). We measured immune function using secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) and cortisol (sCORT) in saliva collected before and after tattoo sessions. We measured tattoo experience as a sum of number of tattoos, lifetime hours tattooed, years since first tattoo, percent of body covered, and number of tattoo sessions. We predicted an inverse relationship between SIgA and sCORT and less SIgA immunosup- pression among those with more tattoo experience. We used hierarchical multiple regression to test for a main effect of tattoo experience on post-tattoo SIgA, controlling for pretest SIgA, tattoo session duration, body mass, and the interac- tion between tattoo experience and test session duration. Results: The regression model was significant (P 5 0.006) with a large effect size (r2 5 0.711) and significant and pos- itive main (P 5 0.03) and interaction effects (P 5 0.014).

Tattoo Ink and Permanent Makeup Safety John Misock, Senior Consultant [email protected] July 13, 2020 Overview • TI and PMU are cosmetics…with a twist. • TI and PMU safety concerns. • Microbiological Contaminants in TI and PMU. • Color additives…what are the issues? • Body Art Committee Charge 2: Color Additive Petition for Titanium Dioxide for Intradermal Tattooing • Body Art Committee Charge 4: Tattoo Ink and PMU Sterilization Standard of Best Practices • What can artists do to protect themselves. FDA Regulation of Tattoo Ink and Permanent Makeup • Regulated as cosmetics – Never specifically mentioned in FD&C Act. – As popularity grew and problems arose FDA declared that products used to alter the appearance that are placed into the dermis are Cosmetics. – Carbon black regulated as a medical device for use in tattooing during medical procedures. – In Europe, tattoo ink pigments are regulated as chemicals under Reach, not as cosmetics. – Are tanning chemicals any different? More on this later. TI and PMU Safety Concerns • Microbiological – Contain water thus capable of sustaining growth – When placed into the dermis should be sterile – Presence of some microorganisms can cause disease • Chemical – Color additives not approved for use in TI and PMU – Presence of contaminants Color additives…what are the issues? • FDA has not exercised authority to regulate color additives in TI and PMU. • Color additives in TI and PMU have not been approved by FDA. • The law is clear that color additives require pre-market approval. • No regulations specific to TI and PMU have been promulgated. • In comes the Body Art Committee to the rescue! Color Additive Amendments of 1960 • In the fall of 1950, many children became ill from eating an orange Halloween candy containing 1-2% FD&C Orange No.

DETERMINATION of HEAVY METALS in BLACK TATTOO INK SOLD Supported by WITHIN ZARIA, NIGERIA
DETERMINATION OF HEAVY METALS IN BLACK TATTOO INK SOLD Supported by WITHIN ZARIA, NIGERIA Zakka Israila Yashim Department of Chemistry, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria Nigeria [email protected] Received: December 14, 2016 Accepted: March 18, 2017 Abstract: The aim of this study is to determine the concentration of cadmium, lead, nickel, mercury and zinc in three different imported black tattoo ink sold in Zaria, Nigeria. Three commonly different brands of black tattoo ink coded BTN1, BTN2 and BTN3 being sold in Zaria town were randomly purchased. Each brand of the tattoo ink was mixed, sample taken and digested using a mixture of concentrated acids (HNO3/HClO4/H2SO4/H2O2 ratio 3:2:1:1).The concentrations of the metals were determined using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS).One- Way Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was done at 95% confidence limit on the data obtained.The results of the analysis indicated that the concentrations of Cd, Pb, Ni, Hg and Zn were found to be in the range of 2.357 – 2.554 mg/Kg, 3.640 – 6.514 mg/Kg, 1.859 – 2.837 mg/Kg, 0.499 – 0.638 mg/ kg, and 36.272 – 47.008 mg/Kg, respectively. These values (except that of Zn) were higher than the given EPA’s Guidelines in 2012. The one-way ANOVA showed that there was no significant difference (P > 05) between the metal levels in the different brands of black ink. This result reveals that the type of pigment used in tattoo inks contributes to its heavy metal content.The use of tattoo inks could result in an increase in the heavy metal level in human body which could lead to health problems.

FDA Warns Tattoo Artists and Consumers Not to Use Certain Tattoo Inks Fast Facts
FDA Warns Tattoo Artists and Consumers Not to Use Certain Tattoo Inks Fast Facts: The FDA is alerting tattoo artists and consumers that they should not use tattoo inks marketed and distributed by A Thousand Virgins, in grey wash shades labeled G1, G2, and G3 (Lot #129 exp 1/16). Through testing, the agency has found bacterial contamination, including Mycobacterium chelonae, in unopened bottles of these tattoo inks. The FDA tested the inks to assist the Florida Department of Health in its investigation of an outbreak of mycobacterial infections in people who recently got tattoos. On August 4, 2015, A Thousand Virgins recalled certain tattoo inks sold separately and in sets, but the FDA is concerned that artists and consumers are continuing to use these contaminated inks from their current stock. Also, tattoo products with the same lot number manufactured by A Thousand Virgins may still be available online and may be marketed by other distributors. The inks were sold in single units and in sets. Artists who purchase tattoo inks and consumers who purchase tattoo inks or who seek tattooing should check the ink bottles to see if they are included in the recall. If you find inks subject to recall, place the closed bottles of ink into a plastic bag, sealing or tying off the bag to prevent leakage. Put this first bag into a second bag and tie off this bag separately. Check with your local waste management authorities for any disposal requirements in effect in your area. What is the Problem? FDA has identified microbiological contamination in unopened tattoo inks made by A Thousand Virgins, Inc.

Rising Concern Over Cosmetic Tattoos
ORIGINAL ARTICLE Rising Concern over Cosmetic Tattoos † ARISA E. ORTIZ, MD,* AND TINA S. ALSTER,MD BACKGROUND A rise in popularity of cosmetic tattoos has led to an increase in adverse reactions. Due to more pressing concerns, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not traditionally enforced its author- ity over tattoo inks. OBJECTIVE To raise awareness of the dangers of cosmetic tattoos. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed FDA policies regarding tattoo ink, different ink components, adverse reactions, and various treatment options for cosmetic tattoo removal. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION An increase in consumer complaints has prompted FDA investigation into tattoo inks and their safety. It is important that further complications be reported to the FDA to promote regulation of cosmetic tattoo inks.

Tattoo and Body Piercing in Indiana Faqs
Tattoos and Body Piercing in Indiana: FAQs What is a tattoo? By Indiana law, a tattoo is: 1. Any indelible design, letter, scroll, figure, symbol, or other mark placed with the aid of needles or other instruments; or 2. Any design, letter, scroll, figure, symbol done by scarring on or under the skin. What is body piercing? By Indiana law, body piercing is: The perforation of any human body part, other than ear lobe, for the purpose of inserting jewelry or other decoration or for some other nonmedical purpose. How is a tattoo applied? A needle, connected to a small machine with tubes containing dye, repeatedly pricks into the skin. Each needle puncture inserts tiny droplets of ink. The process, which may last several hours for a large tattoo, causes a small amount of bleeding. What laws govern tattooing and body piercing in Indiana? In 1997, Indiana Code (IC) 16-19-3-4.1 required the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) to adopt rules to regulate the sanitary operation of tattoo parlors. The rule, 410 IAC 1-5, became law on June 12, 1998, and was readopted July 21, 2004 and July 15, 2010. IC 25-1-19 prohibits scleral tattooing as 7/1/2018. The following are some requirements of the tattoo rule: • All tattooists must receive yearly training concerning how diseases are spread by contact with blood • To receive a tattoo or body piercing, anyone under 18 years of age must be accompanied by, and have written permission from, a parent or legal guardian • Gloves or other appropriate personal protection must be worn when performing tattooing
