On the whole, the evaluation seems to be good, but some doubts were expressed about data presentation and lack of informations about statistical analysis; this aspect may modify the assessment of toxicity itself. The Propylene Oxide\/Propylene Glycols Panel of the American Chemistry Council takes position against these issues, saying that data are detailed enough. Since there is an unresolved dispute, <strong>Bensos prefers to wait for a more endorsed assessment, <\/strong>before considering safe this chemical.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, propylene glycol, as other glycols, seems to be able to <strong>induce or enhance multiple allergies symptoms<\/strong>, as asthma, rhinitis, eczema, and immune IgE sensitization in people with a predisposition.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, Bensos ensures its<strong> commitment in studying thoroughly scientific literature<\/strong> as far as possible and in <strong>selecting the safest ingredients<\/strong>, with the purpose to safeguard both consumers and professional users using its <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bensos.com\/prodotti-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">products<\/a><\/strong>, either detergents, body cleansers or creams.<\/p>\n<p>References: RTECS-NIOSH; OECD-SIDS; <em>NTP-CERHR Monograph on the Potential Human Reproductive and Developmental Effects of Propylene Glycol<\/em>, march 2004; H.
