Analysis of isothiazolinones in building materials
You want to perform an analysis of isothiazolinones in your building materials
First of all, isothiazolinones are a family of biocides based on a heterocycle, 1,2-thiazol-3-one. Isothiazolinones are used against bacteria and fungi in lacquers, paints, antifoulings and varnishes. Their biocidal effect comes from a two-step mechanism: a rapid inhibition of growth and respiration, followed by irreversible damage to the cell within hours. By reacting with the cell’s proteins, oxygen consumption, and thus respiration, and ATP synthesis, and thus energy production, are inhibited.
Therefore, the support of a competent laboratory for the analysis of building materials is indispensable for the analysis of isothiazolinone in your cosmetic products.
