Moderate riskSmall brush sets designed for cleaning sippy cup straws, bottle nipples, and pacifiers, featuring antimicrobial-treated nylon bristles.
What is this product?
Small brush sets designed for cleaning sippy cup straws, bottle nipples, and pacifiers, featuring antimicrobial-treated nylon bristles. Antimicrobial agents (triclosan, zinc pyrithione, or nano-silver) are embedded in the bristle material and transfer to surfaces that children then put in their mouths. Residue on straw interiors and nipple surfaces creates direct oral exposure pathways. Nylon bristles also shed microplastic fibers that lodge in hard-to-rinse straw interiors, creating ongoing microplastic ingestion risk.
