There’s formaldahyde in baby shampoo? In what quantity? Is it a byproduct from a chemical reaction or side reaction during the manufacturing process? Or is it added on purpose for a reason? Or is it contamination in a feedstock due to sloppy quality control? Exactly how much formaldahyde is in a bottle of baby shampoo? I would like to see the numbers.

I'm guessing its an ingredient of another ingredient.

Thanks. Looks like a preservative. But with all the recalls J&J’s had, and an OTC plant in Pennsylvania being so dirty it’s been shut down for years, my ears go back at the mention of J&J.
