Opinion on Bismuth Citrate ______ SCCS/1499/12 Version S Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety SCCS OPINION ON Bismuth citrate The SCCS adopted this opinion at its 4th plenary meeting on 12 December 2013 SCCS/1499/12 Opinion on bismuth citrate ___________________________________________________________________________________________ About the Scientific Committees Three independent non-food Scientific Committees provide the Commission with the scientific advice it needs when preparing policy and proposals relating to consumer safety, public health and the environment. The Committees also draw the Commission's attention to the new or emerging problems which may pose an actual or potential threat. They are: the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS), the Scientific Committee on Health and Environmental Risks (SCHER) and the Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks (SCENIHR) and are made up of external experts. In addition, the Commission relies upon the work of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA), the European Centre for Disease prevention and Control (ECDC) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). SCCS The Committee shall provide opinions on questions concerning all types of health and safety risks (notably chemical, biological, mechanical and other physical risks) of non-food consumer products (for example: cosmetic products and their ingredients, toys, textiles, clothing, personal care and household products such as detergents, etc.) and services (for example: tattooing, artificial sun tanning, etc.).

BACKGROUND The chemical Bismuth Citrate (CAS 813-93-4) (EC 212-390-1) is a new substance in connection with the hair dye strategy. The first submission for this substance was received by end of January 2009. The present submission I includes a complete dossier according to the hair dye strategy and the applicant ask for its safety evaluation when used in non-oxidative , but progressive hair dye formulation at a concentration up to 2.0% in the finished cosmetic product. Progressive hair dyes work - according to the dossier - gradually, with colour build-up over a period of two to three weeks of daily application. With such application, the hair gradually darkens until the required shade is achieved. Thereafter, colour is maintained by up to 3 applications per week. The product is intended for use by middle-aged and older people, principally men. Bismuth preparations are commonly used to treat a variety of gastrointestinal disorders, including peptic ulcers and dyspepsia. According to the current US Code of Federal Regulation1, bismuth citrate may be safely used in cosmetics intended for colouring hair on the scalp, subject to the following restrictions: - the amount of bismuth citrate in the cosmetic shall not be in excess of 0.5% (w/v); - the cosmetic may not be used for colouring eyelashes, eyebrows or hair on parts of the body other than the scalp. 2. TERMS OF REFERENCE 1. Does SCCS consider that the use of bismuth citrate as an hair dye substance in cosmetic products is safe for the consumers when used in a concentration up to maximum 2.0 % taken into account the provided scientific data? 2. Does SCCS have any other scientific concerns for the safe use of bismuth citrate in finished cosmetic products? 1 21CFR73, 2110, April 1, page 375, 2002 5 SCCS/1499/12 Opinion on bismuth citrate ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 3. OPINION Preamble The quality of the dossier is poor and contains the following major shortcomings: - Although a concentration of 2% of bismuth citrate in cosmetic formulations is applied for, all of the studies submitted for local toxicity testing were performed with a concentration of 0.5%. In addition, supporting data for the concentration claimed was not provided. - Data on identity and/or characterization of bismuth citrate in batches, lots, and formulations was often missing or inadequate. - Data on solubility and/or stability of bismuth citrate in solvents was missing, partly conflicting or inadequate. - The list of references was poorly sorted, titles of the pdf files were partly misleading (e.g., ref. 58), and several copies were only partly legible. - The only certificate of analysis (CoA) provided was only partly legible. 3.1 Chemical and Physical Specifications 3.1.1 Chemical identity 3.1.1.1 Primary

  • XVL-Organo-Derivatives of Bismuth. Part V. the Stability of Halogen, Cyano-, and Thiocyano- Derivatives of Tertiary Aromatic Bismuthines
    View Article Online / Journal Homepage / Table of Contents for this issue ORGANO-DERIVATIVES OF BISMUTH. PART V. 91 XVL-Organo-derivatives of Bismuth. Part V. The Stability of Halogen, Cyano-, and Thiocyano- derivatives of Tertiary Aromatic Bismuthines. By FREDERICKCHALLENGER and JOHNFREDERICK WILKINSON. THE dihaloids of triphenylbismuthine show diminished stability with increase in the positive character of the halogen until, with iodine, the di-iodide, Ph,BiI,, has not been isolated but immediately decomposes, giving iodobenzene and diphenyliodobismuthine (Challenger and Allpress, T., 1915, 107, 21 ; Gillmeister, Ber., 1897, 30, 2843). As a result of work described in this and in previous communications, the relations existing between the dihaloids and similar derivatives may be summarised thus- 31. p. Temp. of Decomposition. Difluoride ........................ 159" 190-200" Dichloride ........................ 141" 150°, and slowly in boiling benzene. Dibromide ........................ 122" looo, and easily in boiling benzene. Di-iodide, not isolated, unstable, yielding Ph,BiI and PhI. Dicyanide, not isolated, unstable, yielding Ph,Bi.CN and Ph-CN. Dithiocyanate, not isolated, unstable, yielding Ph,Bi. SCN and Ph-SCN. The decomposition of the dihaloids may be represented by the equations- (i) Ph,BiX, = Ph,BiX + PhX or (ii) 2Ph,BiX, = Ph,Bi + PhBiX, + 2PhX and at a higher temperature, Published on 01 January 1922. Downloaded by University of Western Ontario 31/10/2014 11:40:05. (iii) 2Ph,Bi = 3Ph, + 2Bi. When triphenylbismuthine dichloride is treated with potassium fluoride in aqueous-alcoholic solution, triphenylbismuthine dijluoride, m. p. 159", is produced. This decomposes when heated, giving fluorobenzene, triphenylbismuthine ,diphenyl, and probably bismuth fluoride. Although no tetraphenylbismuthonium haloids have so far been obtained, the stability of the difluoride led us to hope that, by interaction with magnesium phenyl bromide, tetraphenyl- bismuthonium fluoride might possibly be formed, but only triphenyl- bismuthine was isolated.

  • Nitrogen Group
    Nitrogen group The nitrogen group is a periodic table group consisting of nitrogen ( N), phosphorus (P), arsenic ( As ), antimony ( Sb ), bismuth ( Bi ) and ununpentium ( Uup ) (unconfirmed. In modern IUPAC notation, it is called Group 15 . In the old IUPAC, it was called Group VB and Group VA , respectively (pronounced "group five B" and "group five A", because "V" is a Roman numeral. In the field of semiconductor physics, it You are using demo version You are using demo version is still universally called Group V . It is also collectively named the pnictogens .The "five" ("V") in the historical names comes from the fact that these elements have five valence electrons.

They are therefore 3 electrons short of filling their outermost electron shell in their non-ionized state.

We overviewed the complex chemical behavior of bismuth during the transformation of its compounds to oxide and bismuth oxide phase transitions. Afterward, we summarized the more relevant studies regrouped into three categories based on the use of bismuth species: (i) active drugs, (ii) diagnostic and (iii) theragnostic. We hope to provide a complete overview of the great potential of bismuth oxides in biological environments. Keywords: bismuth oxide; nanoparticles; radiopacity; chemotherapy; theragnostic 1. Introduction Recently, the concerns for human healthiness have risen day by day. Pharma industries and the research community have committed themselves to improve both the knowledge and on-field real application of newly designed drugs and protocols. Despite the numerous available established treatments, there is still an urgent need to develop new and innovative technologies that could help to delineate tumor margins, identify residual tumor cells and eventually eliminate them [1–3].
