One part of this review looks at the environmental properties of the ingredients in the chosen products. EnviroPlanning has been hired to assess the environmental properties of the ingredients in order to identify and list ten or more of the most un-wanted ingredients. Severe health aspects of the ingredients are also taken into account when establishing the list. The following ingredients are considered as the most unwanted in the examined 27 soaps: BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) Methylchloroisothiazolinone Zinc Oxide Methylisothiazolinone Limonene Lauric Acid 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol Benzyl Benzoate Butylphenyl Methylpropional Disodium EDTA Formaldehyde The review shows that the liquid soaps on the Italian market have a wide range of ingredients. It is possible to find liquid soaps containing both very few and very many hazardous ingredients. The following soaps are the best choices for consumers wanting to avoid hazardous ingredients.

One part of this review looks at the environmental properties of the ingredients in the chosen products. EnviroPlanning has been hired to assess the environmental properties of the ingredients in order to identify and list ten or more of the most un-wanted ingredients. Severe health aspects of the ingredients are also taken into account when establishing the list. 2 Legislation for soaps Soaps are considered as cosmetics in the European legislation. Currently, there is a European directive (76/768/EEC) which all cosmetics products should live up to. This directive will in 2013 be replaced by a European regulation (EC No 1223/2009). Both current and future legislation cover health aspects and require that safety assessment is carried out for all cosmetic products to ensure safe products. The regulation however does not cover the environmental properties of the ingredients used. Regarding preservatives, UV filters and colouring agents the directive contains lists of those substances allowed to be used in cosmetic products. The directive as well as the regulation also contains lists of prohibited ingredients, which is present on the cosmetics packaging. 3 Environmental hazard and risk evaluation of liquid soaps A total of 24 different types and brands of liquid soaps and three soap bars were evaluated in regards to environmental hazardous properties. In total all the soaps contained 141 chemical substances (ingredients). Each of the soaps contained between 12 and 27 ingredients. The ingredients were compiled in a database in Microsoft Excel™. The CAS-number (Chemical Abstract Services) for each substance was retrieved from the CosIng database (the European Commission database with information on cosmetic substances and ingredients). The list of all the reviewed liquid soaps and ingredients is shown in Appendix A. U:\4084-01\10-udo\01-utr\Report 4084-01.doc 1 (15) Worst Ingredients in Liquid Soap Date Dec 9, 2011 Italian products Version Final Doc.no 4084-01\10\01\Report.doc Out of the 27 soaps that were evaluated, nine included one or several colorants. Colorants are a group of substances that are not biodegradable and may therefore pose an environmental hazard. Colorants do not contribute to the function of the soaps, and it can be argued that they are undesirable from an environmental perspective. However, many of the colorants are accepted as food additives and the available information on their environmental properties is very scarce. Therefor further investigation will not be made on these substances in this report. 3.1 Screening for environmentally hazardous properties An initial screening of the ingredients was performed to separate suspected environmentally hazardous substances from those that can be assumed to have no, or negligible, environmental effect. The CAS-number for each chemical was used to search in the REACH registration dossier on the website of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA, 2011) and the database Chemical Substances (Prevent, 2011). The information retrieved from these databases regarding environmental fate and biological effect of the chemicals was used in the screening process. Soap is a product for which the different ingredients are likely to end up in the aquatic environment after use. Therefore, all chemicals that were classified as harmful or toxic to aquatic organisms were included in the list of suspected environmentally hazardous chemicals. Furthermore, chemicals with high acute or chronic toxicity to aquatic organisms were also included in the list, even if they were not officially classified as harmful or toxic to aquatic organisms. For substances where toxicity data from different species were available, the most sensitive species has been used for the evaluation. Besides biological effect (toxicity), the environmental fate of the chemical is important for the environmental hazard. Chemicals that are not biodegradable (persistent) can accumulate in the environment so that also substances with relatively low toxicity may reach concentrations with toxic effects. Many substances may also accumulate in biological tissue (bioaccumulation), so that high concentrations are reached within the organism. The most classical example of such a chemical is the pesticide DDT, which is relatively non-toxic to vertebrates, but due to low biodegradability and bioaccumulating properties eventually reached concentrations where it had effects on several predatory bird species. Chemicals with such properties should, therefore, be avoided even if they have low toxicity.

However, when there were only persistence OR bioaccumulation, the chemical was not included on the list. Table 1 shows the checklist used to determine if a substance should be placed on the list with potentially environmentally hazardous chemicals. Table 1. The properties examined, and criteria used, to include a substance on the list of chemicals with potential environmental hazard.

  • 7 EDTA, Tetraso
    REPORT Safety Assessment of EDTA, Calcium Disodium EDTA. Diammonium EDTA, Dipotassium EDTA. 7 Disodium EDTA, TEA- EDTA, Tetrasod=um EDTA, Tripotassium EDTA, Trisodium EDTA, HEDTA and Trisodium HEDTA ABSTRACT EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) and its salts are substituted diamines. HEDTA (hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine triacetic acid) and its trisodium salt are substituted amines. These ingredients function as chelating agents in cosmetic formulations. The typical concentration of use of EDTA is less than 2%, with the other salts in current use at even lower concentrations. The lowest dose reported to cause a toxic effect in animals was 750 mg/kg/day. These chelating agents are cytotoxic and weakly genotoxic, but not carcinogenic. Oral exposures to EDTA produced adverse reproductive and developmental effects in animals. Clinical tests reported no absorption of an EDTA salt through the skin. These ingredients, are likely, however, to affect the passage of other chemicals into the skin because they will chelate calcium. Exposure to ED TA in most cosmetic formulations, therefore, would produce systemic exposure levels well below those seen to be toxic in oral dosing studies. Exposure to EDTA in cosmetic formulations that may be inhaled, however, was a concern. An exposure assessment done using conservative assumptions predicted that the maximum EDTA dose via inhalation of an aerosolized cosmetic formulation is below that which has been shown to produce reproductive or developmental toxicity. Because of the potential to increase the penetration of other chemicals, formulators should continue to be aware of this when combining these ingredients with ingredients that previously have been determined to be safe primarily because they were not significanUy absorbed.
