The
safety of 5-Bromo-5-Nitro-1,3-Dioxane has been assessed by the Cosmetic
Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel. The CIR Expert Panel evaluated
the scientific data and concluded that 5-Bromo-5-Nitro-1,3-Dioxane
was safe as a cosmetic and personal care products ingredient at
concentrations up to and including 0.1%, except under circumstances
where its action with amines or amides can result in the formation
of nitrosamines or nitrosamides. In 2007, as part of its regular
re-review of cosmetic ingredients, the CIR Expert Panel considered
available new data on this ingredient and reaffirmed the above conclusion.

5-bromo-5-nitro-1,3-dioxane (trade name Bronidox) is a six-membered cyclic
ether, a member of a group of molecules known as –oxanes. This name is easily
confused with the very similar notation used for many silicones:
polydimthylsiloxane. Bronidox is an antimicrobial and preservative that is
especially effective against yeast and fungi. It is slightly less soluble in
water than alcohols, but it is present in hair product formulations in such low
percentages that there is no concern whatsoever about buildup on the hair,
regardless of hair-care routine (no shampoo, low shampoo, etc.)
Local: Bronidox is an effective bactericide, antiseptic and preservative which can be used in cosmetics,household goods, water systems, in paints, cutting oils, and leather process. It is used as a wound protectant for pruning cuts.
