Reported risk: Une petite pièce (le bec du canard) peut se détacher facilement du jouet. Les jeunes enfants peuvent la mettre à la bouche et s'étouffer. De plus, la migration de plomb du jouet est trop élevée (valeur mesurée jusqu'à 64 mg/kg). Le plomb est nocif pour les enfants car il peut entraîner une neurotoxicité développementale. Il s'accumule dans le corps et peut également affecter leur future progéniture lorsqu'elle est allaitée ou à naître. En outre, la migration de substances N-nitrosables du jouet est trop élevée (valeur mesurée jusqu'à 2,8 mg/kg). Les substances nitrosables peuvent être converties en nitrosamines, qui peuvent provoquer le cancer par ingestion ou exposition cutanée. Un enfant pourrait y être exposé en touchant ou en mettant le produit à la bouche. Le produit

Product Name (original English): Culbuto empilable
Risk Description (original English): A small part (duck's bill) can easily detach from the toy. Small children may put it in their mouth and choke.
Moreover, the migration of lead from the toy is too high (measured value up to 64 mg/kg). Lead is harmful to children as it can lead to developmental neurotoxicity. It accumulates in the body and may also affect their future progeny when breast-fed or unborn.
In addition, the migration of N-nitrosatable substances from the toy is too high (measured value up to 2.8 mg/kg). Nitrosatable substances can be converted into nitrosamines, which may cause cancer through ingestion or dermal exposure. A child could be exposed to them when touching or putting the product in the mouth.
