A new study, the first of its kind, examining flame retardants in foam samples collected from 101 commonly used baby products yeilded some very unnerving results; eighty samples contained an identifiable flame retardant additive, and all but one of these was either chlorinated or brominated. As such, the authors of the study predict that infants may receive greater exposure to these chemicals than children or adults, at a higher than acceptable daily intake level set by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). For this reason the authors suggest that future studies are warranted to determine if there are any associated health concerns.
