Hazard Class 3 substances were found in aroma inhalers
Aroma inhalers have been found to contain substances of the 3rd class of hazard. This follows from Rospotrebnadzor's response to Ivan Sukharev, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Property, Land and Property Relations from the LDPR faction. He had earlier asked the federal service to conduct an inspection of goods popular with the population.
In the course of monitoring, the service revealed the sale of such products on the Internet under the guise of medical devices, according to the document, which is available at Izvestia. The description of the goods may mislead the consumer about consumer properties. In particular, it is found that these goods are often accompanied by declarations of conformity to the requirements of the technical regulations of the Customs Union "On the safety of perfumes and cosmetics" (TR CU 009/2011), not confirmed by the grounds for the issuance of such declarations, or there is no information about the accompanying documents.
It is also reported that the research of samples of aroma-inhalers was conducted in FBUZ "Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in Moscow". The composition revealed menthol, declared on the labeling, as well as unspecified substances - camphor and compounds characteristic of both natural essential oils and synthetic flavorings.
"Detected and identified substances of the third class of danger, not declared on the labeling of products, having irritant effect, effect on the central and peripheral nervous system, respiratory system, liver, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, morphological composition of peripheral blood (toluene, xylene isomers, diethyl phthalate)", - reported in the document.
