Hazard

The products contains arsenic, lead, aromatic amine 4-methyl-m-phenylendiamine, cooper and nickel above the permitted levels (measured values: arsenic: up to 8.78 mg/kg; lead: up to 14.2 mg/kg; aromatic amines: up to 3600 mg/kg; copper: up to 163 mg/kg; nickel:36.1 mg/kg).According to the Council of Europe Resolution ResAP (2008) on requirements and criteria for the safety of tattoos and permanent make-up, the levels of lead and arsenic should not exceed 2 mg/kg, whereas the nickel levels in tattoo inks must be as low as technically achievable as nickel has a high allergenic potential. Aromatic Amines as 4-methyl-m-phenylendiamine with carcinogenic effects should neither be present in tattoos and permanent make-up products nor released from azo-colourants.
