Health products giant, Johnson and Johnson (J&J,) has been asked in a letter signed by nearly 50 groups, including the American Nurses Association, to remove tiny amounts of 1,4-dioxane along with preservatives that release formaldehyde from the popular J&J Baby Shampoo and other products. Sent to J&J's chief executive, the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics asked the company to reformulate products by the end of August 2009 to remove these 2 chemicals suspected of causing cancer. A J &J spokesman, Bill Price, responded by saying, "The trace levels of certain compounds that were noted by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics can result from processes that make our products gentle for babies and safe from bacteria growth. Many regulatory agencies around the world consider these trace levels safe." Price said that there are no immediate plans to remove the 2 ingredients.
