An Abstract of Evaluating UVB and UVA Boosting Technologies for Chemical and Physical Sunscreens by An Ngoc Hiep Huynh Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences Industrial Pharmacy The University of Toledo May 2020 There are currently 14 organic and 2 inorganic UV filters approved in the United States. Due to coral reef safety concerns, octinoxate and oxybenzone have been banned in Hawaii, Key West, FL and the US Virgin Islands; and octocrylene is also being studied for its potential impact on coral reef safety, leaving 11 organic UV filters as viable options for sunscreen manufacturers – with limitations on their combination. Since consumers are always looking for sunscreens with high SPF and broad-spectrum protection, the need for UVB and UVA protection boosting technologies is greater than ever. In a preliminary study, about two dozen emollients were scanned for their SPF boosting capability with selected organic UV filters. -

FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019
FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates sunscreens to ensure they meet safety and eectiveness standards. To improve the quality, safety, and eectiveness of sunscreens, FDA issued a proposed rule that describes updated proposed requirements for sunscreens. Given the recognized public health benets of sunscreen use, Americans should continue to use broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher with other sun protective measures as this important rulemaking eort moves forward. Highlights of FDA’s Proposals Sunscreen active ingredient safety and eectiveness Two ingredients (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) are proposed to be safe and eective for sunscreen use and two (aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and trolamine salicylate) are 1 proposed as not safe and eective for sunscreen use. FDA proposes that it needs more safety information for the remaining 12 sunscreen ingredients (cinoxate, dioxybenzone, ensulizole, homosalate, meradimate, octinoxate, octisalate, octocrylene, padimate O, sulisobenzone, oxybenzone, avobenzone). New proposed sun protection factor Sunscreen dosage forms (SPF) and broad spectrum Sunscreen sprays, oils, lotions, creams, gels, butters, pastes, ointments, and sticks are requirements 2 proposed as safe and eective. FDA 3 • Raise the maximum proposed labeled SPF proposes that it needs more data for from SPF 50+ to SPF 60+ sunscreen powders. • Require any sunscreen SPF 15 or higher to be broad spectrum • Require for all broad spectrum products SPF 15 and above, as SPF increases, broad spectrum protection increases New proposed label requirements • Include alphabetical listing of active ingredients on the front panel • Require sunscreens with SPF below 15 to include “See Skin Cancer/Skin Aging alert” on the front panel 4 • Require font and placement changes to ensure SPF, broad spectrum, and water resistance statements stand out Sunscreen-insect repellent combination 5 products proposed not safe and eective www.fda.gov. -

EWG Petitions CDC to Conduct Biomonitoring Studies for Common Sunscreen Chemicals
EWG Petitions CDC To Conduct Biomonitoring Studies for Common Sunscreen Chemicals May 22, 2019 To: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Center for Environmental Health Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry 4770 Buford Hwy, NE Atlanta, GA 30341 Patrick Breysse, Ph.D., CIH Environmental Working Group (EWG), a nonprofit research and advocacy organization with headquarters in Washington, D.C., is petitioning the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to add common sunscreen chemicals to the CDC’s Biomonitoring Program. EWG has been doing research on sunscreen ingredients since 2007, helping to educate the public about the importance of using sunscreens for health protection, as well as providing information about health risks that may be associated with certain ingredients used in sunscreen products. In response to a significant increase in the use of sunscreens in the United States and the associated increased potential for systemic exposure to the ingredients in these products, in February 2019, the Food and Drug Administration proposed a new rule for sunscreen products.1 The proposed rule would require sunscreen active ingredients to be assessed for their propensity to absorb through the skin and overall safety. Recently, the FDA completed tests on the absorbance of four common sunscreen active ingredients: avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocrylene, and ecamsule. As reported in a study published by the Journal of American Medical Association in May 2019,2 application of all four tested sunscreen ingredients resulted in plasma concentrations that exceeded the 0.5 ng/mL threshold proposed by the FDA for waiving systemic carcinogenicity studies as well as developmental and reproductive toxicity studies. -
