EU Scientific committee: Red hair and risk	03 Jan 11
RED HAIR DYE INGREDIENT POSES RISK says EU scientific committee   The Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) is requesting comments on a number of opinions including one on the hair dye ingredient HC Red No. 16, which it says poses a risk for consumers. According to the opinion, published earlier this week, the ingredient HC Red No. 16 (chemical name: N-(2-nitro-4-aminophenyl)-allylamine (B114) can under current regulation be used in both non oxidative and oxidative hair dye formulations with a concentration limit of 1.5 per cent and 0.75 per cent respectively. However, the committee has concluded after looking at the evidence submitted on a number of endpoints, including acute oral toxicity, skin irritation, skin sensitisation, dermal absorption and genotoxicity, that the ingredient at current use levels poses a risk to the consumer. In addition to the opinion on HC Red No. 16, SCCS published opinions on HC Yellow No.13, HC Red No. 3, HC Red No. 13, and picramic acid/sodium picramate, all used in hair colour preparations. HC Yellow No.13 was deemed to be safe to use at a maximum concentration of 2.5 per cent, although the committee said it should not be used in the presence of a nitrosating agent. HC Red No. 3 was deemed safe for use up to concentrations of 3 per cent, but the committee did acknowledge its sensitising potential. Likewise, HC Red No. 13 was also found to be a moderate skin sensitiser but safe for use under 1.25 per cent in oxidative hair dye formulations and 2.5 per cent in non oxidative. Similarly, picramic acid was found to be safe for use with a maximum concentration of 0.6 per cent.
