Nitrosamines are a chemical by-product, or impurity, formed - TopicsExpress



          

Nitrosamines are a chemical by-product, or impurity, formed during the manufacturing process when certain chemical compounds break down into nitrates. As these compounds break down over time, they can recombine to form nitrosamines. The RHTP and CEH study found nitrosamines in one-third of the condoms tested, but they can also form in nearly every kind of personal care product, including mascara, concealer, conditioner, baby shampoo, pain-relief salve and sunless tanning lotion. It is because nitrosamines are so prevalent in our environment that we should take steps to reduce our exposure to them wherever possible. safecosmetics.org/article.php?id=1194&preview=1&cache=0
