考虑到对某些成分（例如，邻苯二甲酸酯），类似于30种个人护理产品的使用模式（例如，洗发水、防晒霜、香水等）通过电话访问收集了604个加州家庭的数据。选择产品时的偏好，例如，香味或无味，气溶胶，和品牌忠诚度，也进行了调查。参与者分为三个年龄组，儿童（主要是学龄前儿童），他们的父母和55岁或以上的成年人。各种产品类型的使用频率因性别、年龄段、种族、教育和气候地区而异。产品使用的父母和孩子从同一个家庭是相关的。同类产品的使用频率（例如，护肤品）之间存在中度相关性，这可能会影响总体暴露量。本研究中观察到的使用频率与EPA暴露因子手册中报告的使用频率范围大致相同，但我们发现某些产品存在差异。我们的研究提供了更多的数据，以人口为基础的使用模式的大量收集常用的个人护理产品有关的几个年龄组和社会人口阶层。这一信息对于接触和风险评估将是有价值的。(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Given the concern over the potential for health risks associated with certain ingredients (e.g., phthalates) in personal care products, usage patterns of similar to 30 types of personal care products (e.g., shampoo, sunscreen, fragrance, etc.) were collected in 604 California households through a telephone interview. Preferences in selecting products, e.g., scented or unscented, aerosol, and brand loyalty, were also investigated. Participants were recruited in three age groups, children (mostly preschoolers), their parents, and adults age 55 or older. Use frequencies of various product types varied by sex, age group, race, education, and climatic region. Product use by parent and child from the same household were correlated. Use frequencies of products in the same class (e.g., skincare) were moderately correlated, which may impact aggregate exposures. Use frequencies observed in this study were generally in the same range as those reported in the EPA Exposure Factor Handbook, but we found differences for some individual products. Our study provides additional data on population-based usage patterns of a large collection of commonly used personal care products pertaining to several age groups and socio-demographic strata. This information will be valuable for exposure and risk assessments. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
