Dermal exposure to plasticizers in nail polishes: An
The potential dermal exposure rates of the plasticizers in the nail polishes (ng kg-bw1 day 1) were calculated with ConsExpo using the following parameters: plasticizer concentration in the nail polish (wt%), amount of nail polish applied (g), use frequency (year 1 ), applied surface area (cm 2 ), plasticizer dermal permeation coefficient (cm
Dermal exposure to plasticizers in nail polishes: An
The potential dermal exposure rates for TPhP, estimated using ConsExpo (version 5.0; Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment), were in the range 200 (5%ile)-1700 (50%ile)-5000 (95%ile) ng kg-bw -1 day -1, which is more than 1400 times the reported values for exposure via dust ingestion and inhalation.

- Are plasticizers a problem in nail polish?
- As a result, since many brands now report to exclude DnBP, TPHP, and other plasticizers, regrettable substitution of ingredients in nail polish is a growing concern. This is especially true since nail polish formulations may not be able to eliminate all plasticizer additives without sacrifices to product performance.
- Does nail polish contain plasticizer triphenyl phosphate (TPhP)?
- Some nail polishes contain the plasticizer triphenyl phosphate (TPHP). Urinary metabolites of TPHP increased 7-fold following nail polish application. TPHP exposure from nail polish appears to occur via dermal exposure. TPHP may be a replacement for phthalates in nail polish. Triphenyl 1. Introduction
- How many phthalate and organophosphate plasticizers are in nail polish?
- First, we summarized definitions of labels. Then, we measured 12 phthalate and 10 organophosphate plasticizers in 40 nail polishes from 12 brands selected for popularity and label variety. We found labels ranging from 3- to 13-Free; 10-Free was the most inconsistently de ned (six de nitions).
- Is nail polish exposure to TPhP a primary route of exposure?
- In addition, because the painting of gloves prevented dermal exposure, these results indicate that dermal absorption is likely the primary route of exposure to TPHP from nail polish use.
- Does nail polish cause a high dermal exposure rate?
- The potential dermal exposure rate via nail polish estimated in the present study (1700 ng kg-bw −1 day −1 for 50%ile) was more than 1400 times higher than those via inhalation, dust ingestion, and food consumption.
- How many plasticizers are in nail polish bottles?
- Plasticizer concentrations in the nail polishes According to the labels on the bottles, the nail polish bottles contained ATBC (33 of 45 nail polishes), TPhP (2), trimethyl pentanyl diisobutyrate (2), DBP (1), and sucrose benzoate (1) as primary plasticizers; six nail polishes had no label ( Table S1 ).
