NTP Report on Carcinogens Background Document for Disperse Blue 1.

摘要

Disperse Blue 1 is not known to occur as a natural product but is produced and used as a mixture of chemicals. It is an aminoanthraquinone-based dye used in semi-permanent hair color formulations (nonoxidative hair dyes, colors and rinses [Cosmetic Ingredient Review Board, 1995]) and in coloring fabrics and plastics. Commercial preparations of Disperse Blue 1 contain approximately equal amounts of dye and lignosulfonate dispersants. The primary routes of potential human exposure to Disperse Blue 1 are inhalation and dermal contact. Since Disperse Blue 1 is used in hair dyes, potential exposure by these routes exists for personnel producing and applying such products, as well as for those subjected to their administration.
