영문 초록

Objectives: Children are exposed to various environmental pollutants through contact with children’s products. We investigated the KC mark, certification number, and contained substances labeled on children’s products through market research and collected the toxicological data on these substances. Methods: The environmentally hazardous substances labeled on children’s products (n=6576), including toys (n=2812), personal care products (n=2212), stationary/books (n=1333), and playground equipment (n=219) were examined. For the components that could be identified by CAS number, toxicological data on oral, inhalation, and dermal routes, cancer slope factor, and reference dose were collected. Results: Among the investigated products, KC marks or certification numbers were found for 4557 products (69.3%). Except for cosmetics and cleansers, the material information was labeled on most of the products. The frequency of labeling substance information in toys and stationary/books was low since this information could be omitted if KC certification was obtained. In the target products, 617 substances were identified by CAS number, and polypropylene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, and polyester were the most frequently displayed. Chronic toxicity data was found for only 32.4% of individual components, and information on toxicity through the dermal route was also highly limited. Conclusion: Our study suggested that labeling guidelines should be required to identify the environmentally hazardous substances contained in children s products. In addition, the toxicological data on many ingredients in children’s products were insufficient. The data gap for toxicity data should be filled for future risk assessment.
