Pregunta: ¿Puede considerarse hipoalergénico un gel que sólo contiene metacrilato de bencilo y dimetacrilato de etilenglicol, y su fórmula está realmente libre de HEMA, Di-HEMA, HPMA, TPO e IBOA?
Evaluación de las alegaciones hipoalergénicas de un gel que contiene metacrilato de bencilo y dimetacrilato de etilenglicol
Sí, si un gel sólo contiene metacrilato de bencilo y dimetacrilato de etilenglicol, no contendrá HEMA (metacrilato de 2-hidroxietilo), Di-HEMA (metacrilato de di-2-hidroxietilo), HPMA (metacrilato de hidroxipropilo), TPO (triacrilato de trimetilolpropano) ni IBOA (acrilato de isobornilo).
However, the term “hypoallergenic” means that the product is less likely to cause allergic reactions. Even though it is free from the mentioned allergens, there is still a possibility of allergic reactions to Benzyl Methacrylate and Ethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate, as any chemical can potentially cause an allergy in some individuals. Therefore, while it might be marketed as hypoallergenic due to the absence of more common allergens, it’s important to note that it doesn’t guarantee that it will be completely non-allergenic for everyone.
