Household products database

The "Household Products Database" from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is a useful database for both consumer and business information needs. The database includes health and safety information on household products such as cleaners, pesticides, home office, personal care, and automotive care. You can search or browse by product name, types of products, manufacturers, or ingredients. Direct links to the National Library of Medicine TOXNET database for toxicity information on specific ingredients is also provided.

So, if you need a list of products that contain "attapulgite"; or if you'd like to know if the Elmer's glue stick contains toxic ingredients, this database will answer those questions.
