Within the framework of a product launch, a process optimization or a regulatory evolution, the development of customized methods allows cosmetic manufacturers to perform specific analyses on their finished products or raw materials. Indeed, several substances at risk are regulated such as :
- Nitrosamines
- Heavy metals,
- Phthalates
- Residual solvents
- Bisphenol A, etc…
However, several parameters must be taken into consideration when developing analytical and dosing methods for the cosmetics industry. Indeed, the main parameters to take into account are the following
- specificity
- repeatability
- reproducibility
- linearity
- detection capacity (LoD and LoQ).
