Over 1,000 Bottles of Tec Italy Shampoo Recalled Due to Dangerous Bacteria
Henkel, the Germany-based manufacturer, has voluntarily recalled 1,068 bottles of Tec Italy Shampoo for Dry and Damaged Hair after tests revealed contamination with Klebsiella oxytoca — a bacterium that, while normally harmless in the gut, can cause serious illness if it spreads elsewhere in the body.
What Is Klebsiella Oxytoca and Why Is It Dangerous?
Klebsiella oxytoca is typically found in the mouth, nose, and intestinal tract, where it does not pose a threat. However, if it enters the bloodstream or lungs, it can lead to potentially life-threatening infections such as:
Pneumonia
Sepsis
Urinary tract infections
Lower abdominal pain and vomiting
“While rare in the U.S., bloodstream infections from *Klebsiella oxytoca* can be fatal, with an estimated death rate of 10–20%,” health experts caution.
Details of the Shampoo Recall
According to the FDA, the recalled products were distributed from a facility in Mexico to U.S. salons through:
C&R Beauty
Caesar’s Professional Items Inc.
Vero Beauty Distributors
The affected batch can be identified by:
Lot Code: 1G27542266
Expiration Date: May 27, 2027
