Cosmetics

  • Examination of the microbiological purity of products and cosmetics raw materials, process water, packages
  • Performance assessment of preservatives
  • Total antioxidant capacity test
  • Extract obtaining in laboratory scale (method development)
  • Oil in water emulsion preparation in laboratory scale
  • Spray drying of water solution in laboratory scale (method development)
  • Development of cosmetics formulation
  • Comparison analysis of chosen cosmetics compounds
  • Species identification in cosmetics raw materials samples
  • Cyto- and genotoxity tests on cell lines, such as: primary skin fibroblasts and cells sampled from idividual person
  • AMES genotoxity test
  • Alergens determination

Organoleptic assesment (appereance, color, fragnance, consistency)

Qualitative/quantitive analysis or determination of:

  • Preservatives
  • Frangnances in cosmetics products
  • Volatile fatty acids
  • Fatty acids esters
  • Fats iodine index
