Babyganics has issued a voluntary recall of two products due to possible bacterial contamination, according to the company and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The San Francisco-based company said internal testing found that two batches of Babyganics 20 oz. Chamomile verbena bubble bath contained the bacterium Pluralibacter gergoviae.

The products have been sold at select US retailers for the past two months, the company said in a statement, adding that tests had not shown and other products were contaminated.
The company said the bacterium doesn’t usually make healthy people sick, but it could pose a risk of infection for those who are immune-compromised or have irritated skin like diaper rash. Infants can be more susceptible than adults.
