Executive Summary
CIR ISSUES INSUFFICIENT DATA ANNOUNCEMENT FOR DISPERSE YELLOW 3 at its May 23-24 meeting. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review expert panel, concerned about the hair dye ingredient's carcinogenic potential, is requesting information on impurities and dermal absorption. If the ingredient is found not to be absorbed, CIR is asking for data on ocular toxicity, but no longer is seeking the UV absorption, animal dermal toxicity, teratogenicity and human sensitization data listed in its informal data request issued at the previous meeting.
