Revision as of 10:25, 12 May 2011


Scope

Di-methyl fumarate concentrations in consumer products that are sold in Europe.

Definition

Data

According to the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) shoes, sofas and chair account for more than 90% of the total DMF products entered in EU (Hong Kong Trade Development Council, 2009). Other consumer products include toys and helmets (reported in the RAPEX database). A case of occupational exposure after contact with working trousers has also been reported (Foti et al. 2009).

The European RAPEX database (RAPEX 2011) provided 185 results (2005-2011) of products which were contaminated with DMF (Table 1).
