GC/MS Quantitative Analysis of Allergens in Cosmetics Using OPTIC-4

Because an estimated 1 to 2 percent of the population has allergies, in 2003 the EU began regulating the use of perfumes and flavour materials that can cause allergic reactions. These substances are restricted to 0.01 % for cosmetic products that are rinsed away (such as shampoo) and 0.001 % for products that are left applied (such as hand creams). Due to these regulations, manufacturers now must quantitatively analyze the concentration of such allergens.
