“…According to the Scientific Committee on Cosmetic Products and Non-Food Products Intended for Consumer (SCCNFP), a scientific advisory body of the European Commission, Hexamidine has a molecular weight of 354.54 Da and is soluble in water and insoluble in organic solvents (SCCNFP 2002). The antimicrobial activity of Hexamidine is optimum at pH 5 to 9 and may be inactivated by chloride or sulfate ions and some proteins (Hill 1995).…”

“…Many of these products are complex formulations in which preservative activity may be reduced or, possibly potentiated by the other ingredients. Such product ingredients include ethylenediamine tetra‐acetic acid (EDTA) [12], which enhances preservative activity, especially against Gram‐negative bacteria [13], and non‐ionic surfactants, which reduce activity of preservatives such as parabens and quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) [14].…”

“…Cosmetic preservatives include alcohols, QACs, benzoic, dehydroacetic and sorbic acids, parabens, triclosan, formaldehyde and chlorhexidine [12]. A knowledge of their antimicrobial, chemical and physical properties is essential for proper formulation of cosmetic products and also when undertaking PETs.…”

“…Isopropyl and n-propyl alcohols are more effective bactericides than ethanol (Anon., 1965;Kelsey & Maurer, 1972), but are not sporicidal. They are miscible with water in all proportions, but isopropanol has a less objectionable odour than n-propanol and is considered as a suitable alternative to ethanol in various cosmetic products, either as a solvent or as a preservative (Bandelin, 1977;Hill, 1995). Isopropanol has viricidal activity, but not towards 'hydrophilic' (non-lipid-enveloped) viruses (Rutala, 1990).…”

“…Subsequent chapters will discuss the factors influencing their activity and their role as disinfectants and antiseptics and as preservatives in a wide range of products or materials (Akers, 1984;Fels et al, 1987;Eklund, 1989;Gould & Jones, 1989;Wilkins & Board, 1989;Russell & Gould, 1991a,b;Kabara & Eklund, 1991;Seiler & Russell, 1991). Lists of preservatives are provided by Denyer and Wallhäusser (1990) and by Hill (1995). Additional information is provided on their mechanism of action and on the ways in which microorganisms show resistance.…”
