  • Health Effects: Mercury mainly affects the nervous system. Exposure to high levels of metallic, inorganic, or organic mercury can permanently damage the brain, kidneys, and developing fetus. Effects on brain functioning may result in irritability, shyness, tremors, changes in vision or hearing, and memory problems. Acrodynia, a type of mercury poisoning in children, is characterized by pain and pink discoloration of the hands and feet. Mercury poisoning can also cause Hunter-Russell syndrome and Minamata disease. (L7) Source: Toxin and Toxin Target Database (T3DB)
  • Toxicity Summary: High-affinity binding of the divalent mercuric ion to thiol or sulfhydryl groups of proteins is believed to be the major mechanism for the activity of mercury. Through alterations in intracellular thiol status, mercury can promote oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and changes in heme metabolism. Mercury is known to bind to microsomal and mitochondrial enzymes, resulting in cell injury and death. For example, mercury is known to inhibit aquaporins, halting water flow across the cell membrane. It also inhibits the protein LCK, which causes decreased T-cell signalling and immune system depression. Mercury is also believed to inhibit neuronal excitability by acting on the postsynaptic neuronal membrane. It also affects the nervous system by inhibiting protein kinase C and alkaline phosphatase, which impairs brain microvascular formation and function, as well as alters the blood-brain barrier. Organic mercury exerts developmental effects by binding to tubulin, preventing microtubule assembly and causing mitotic inhibition. Mercury also produces an autoimmune response, likely by modification of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules, self Source: Toxin and Toxin Target Database (T3DB)

  • Toxicity Summary: The inorganic borates display low acute toxicity. They are either not irritant or mild skin and eye irritants. They are not skin sensitisers, nor are they mutagenic or carcinogenic. The most sensitive endpoints of toxicity are considered to be effects on the reproductive organs, fertility in males, and developmental effects. The doses that cause these effects are far higher than any levels to which the human population could be exposed... /Inorganic borates/ Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)

  • Cosmetic Ingredient Review Conclusion: The Expert Panel concludes that Sodium Borate and Boric Acid, in concentrations less than or equal to 5 percent, are safe as cosmetic ingredients when used as currently recommended; however, cosmetic formulations containing free Sodium Borate or Boric Acid at this concentration should not be used on infant skin or injured skin. Note: In 2003, the CIR Expert Panel considered available new data on these ingredients and reaffirmed the above conclusion. Source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR)
  • Cosmetic Ingredient Review Finding(s): Safe for use in cosmetics, with qualifications Source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR)
  • Environmental Bioconcentration: In a greenhouse experiment with sandy loam soil treated with 0-8.0 ppm boron as borax, boron toxicity symptoms appeared earliest in lentil plants and barley seedlings exposed to 8.0 ppm boron. In barley the severity of boron toxicity decreased with the decrease in boron levels, whereas in lentil the severity of the symptoms eventually reached the same level in 2 and 4 ppm boron treatments as with the highest concentration. Dry matter yield decreased 38.6% in lentil and 23.4% in barley exposed to 8.0 ppm boron in comparison with controls. Boron contents of lentil and barley plants on soil treated with 8 ppm boron were approximately 7- and approximately 8-fold those of control plants, respectively.

  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Boron is naturally occurring and ubiquitous in the environment. No microbial degradation. Disappearance from soil is by washing out. Persistence in soil is about 2 years, depending on rainfall and soil structure. Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)

  • Sources/Uses: Used as a preservative, antiseptic and fungicide; also used to manufacture glazes, enamels, soldering fluxes and cleaning compounds and to fireproof textiles and wood; [ACGIH] Boric acid and borates as tablets or powder are used to kill larvae in barns and other insects in houses. Rarely, they are sprayed as herbicides. [EPA: Recognition of Pesticide Poisonings] Used in photo developing bath; [www.ci.tucson.az.us/arthazards/medium.html] Borax (borax decahydrate) is found naturally in some salt lakes and alkaline soils. Boric acid is formed by crystallizing a solution of hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid and borax. [Hawley] Source: Haz-Map, Information on Hazardous Chemicals and Occupational Diseases

Continue the compliance check

1. Confirm identity

Match the supplier specification, CAS/EC identifiers and composition to this official label name. Similar wording is not proof of chemical equivalence.

2. Review restrictions

Check every exact Annex record shown above, plus CMR, nanomaterial, SCCS and later-amendment requirements that may apply.

3. Verify the formula

Evaluate concentration, product type, purity, warnings, claims and each target market before making a compliance decision.
