Propylparaben Sodium

What is it?
Propylparaben has been used as an antimicrobial preservative in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries for over 50 years. The chemical formula for propylparaben sodium is NaC10H12O3, it is the sodium salt of propylparaben.

Propylparaben is easily absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and skin, and metabolites are rapidly excreted in the urine. It does not appear to accumulate in the body. It is on the FDA generally regarded as safe list.

Animal toxicity studies suggest propylparaben is relatively nontoxic by both the oral and injectable routes, but may irritate the skin It has not been shown to be carcinogenic, mutagenic or clastogenic.[1][2][3] All parabens have similar structure to estrogen. Studies conducted in the early 2000s located traces of parabens in breast tumors, but evidence has not linked parabens with breast cancer.

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) reviewed the safety of methylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben in 1984 and concluded they were safe for use in cosmetic products at levels up to 25%. Typically parabens are used at levels ranging from 0.01 to 0.3%.

Cosmetic products Data sheets for toxic molecules to avoid


Unwanted compounds are not uncommon in cosmetics. These sheets list the names of those who seem to us to be the most problematic in the current state of scientific knowledge. For each, you can identify the level of risk depending on whether the user is a pregnant woman or a toddler, a child - likely to be more sensitive to irritant compounds in particular -, a teenager or an adult. Endocrine disruptors are particularly to be banned for certain populations, such as pregnant women, toddlers and adolescents.

 
SUMMARY
1. BHA
2. Butylparaben, propylparaben, sodium butylparaben, Sodium Propylparaben, potassium butylparaben, potassium propylparaben

Claiming to be "paraben-free" seems to have become the prerequisite for selling cosmetics or hygiene products. Even if it means replacing these preservatives with others that are not very clear either, such as methylisothiazolinone. In reality, all the members of this family are not to be put in the same basket: those with short chain, ethylparaben and methylparaben (and the compounds which contain this name, like sodium ethylparaben) were bleached by the French and European experts. Conversely, the most dangerous (isobutyl, isopropyl, benzyl, pentyl, phenylparaben) have been banned since 2014. But butylparaben and propylparaben remain authorized (as well as the ingredients whose compound name appends one of these words to "sodium" or “potassium”) while they are considered endocrine disruptors. A mnemonic to remember it? Those that start with P or B are "Not Good"! However, we still find it, including in references intended for toddlers, such as some wipes, children (some toothpastes), or even in the genital sphere. For children under 3 years old, propyl and butylparaben are prohibited in non-rinsed products intended for use in the seat area (cleansers, wipess, creams) but are found in wipes supposed to be used on the face or hands.

Good to know: some products have drug status, even if they are similar to cosmetics. This is the case with some toothpastes or creams. The propylparaben is then called propyl parahydroxybenzoate (or p-hydroxybenzoate), for Sodium Propylparaben, “sodium” is added.

- deodorants and perfumes

- products for babies and children

Natural parabens
Sodium Propylparaben only seems possible to indicate that parabens may exist naturally. However, very few scientific references support these analyzes1. For example, the presence of methyl paraben in vanilla has been demonstrated (Zhang & Mueller, 2012). They are also found in products made by bees (propolis, royal jelly, etc.). They are also naturally present in the human body (precursor of coenzyme Q10) 2.

Sodium Propylparaben (CAS 35285-69-9)
Use of Sodium Propylparaben
Due to their effective antibacterial and antimycotic activity, they are used as preservatives in foods, beverages, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals3. They are found in over 80% of hygiene and toiletry products including shampoos, moisturizers, shaving foams and cleansing gels.

The antimicrobial activity increases with the length of the carbon chain of the esterified alcohol of the paraben; but the most widely used are methylparaben and propylparaben because of their greater solubility and because they have a synergistic effect4.

Specific additives like methyl paraben are added to local anesthetics to increase antibacterial activity. They are added to limit contamination by the entry of different vials [ref. necessary].

Methylparaben is the most widely used preservative in local anesthesia. In its pure state, it is colorless and is not affected by heat or cold. Methylparaben solutions are stable at a pH between 3 and 6, but they are hydrolyzed in an alkaline environment. Propylparaben has similar properties. These preservatives do not replace sterilization techniques but only help to reduce the microbiological load5.

Methylparaben (solid powder) is also used as a plasticizer for certain drugs because of its semiconductor properties [ref. necessary]. Sodium Propylparaben helps control the release of polymer-based drugs and facilitate the thermal process. Plasticizers are important for lowering the glass transition temperature (Tg) and softening polymeric drugs during their extrusion. The Tg of the polymer decreases by increasing the amount of methylparaben, this is due to the increased mobility of molecular chains of the polymer when methylparaben is inserted into the matrix. All this happens under high temperature

Parabens: cream, body milk, deodorants, shower gel, toothpaste ...
Whether it is butylparaben, propylparaben, sodium butylparaben, Sodium propylparaben, potassium butylparaben, potassium propylparaben, these molecules are potentially endocrine disruptors. It is desirable to avoid them in pregnant women, babies and adolescents.
Babies and pregnant women ⇒ significant risk for rinsed and non-rinsed products;
Child ⇒ significant risk for rinsed and non-rinsed products;
Adult ⇒ significant risk for non-rinsed products, medium risk for rinsed products.
