Abstract:
Objective To establish a method for determination of 7 preservatives, benzyl alechol, sorbic acid, benzoic acid, methyl-paraben, ethyl-paraben, propyl-paraben, butyl-paraben, in cosmetics in one time by gas chromatography. Methods The cosmetic sample was dissolved by methanol, extracted by ultrasonic and separated by packed column of DB1, the optimized experimental condition was explored also. Results The concentrations of 7 preservatives showed a positive correlation with the peak heights at the following ranges, 100-500 ?g/ml for benzyl alechol, 200-600 ?g/ml for sorbic acid, 25-500 ?g/ml for benzoic acid, methyl-paraben, ethyl-paraben, propyl-paraben and butyl-paraben, the correlative coefficients were 0.998 3-0.999 9. The detection limits were 5.5, 57.1, 29.6, 6.2, 5.5, 6.2, 6.2 ng/ml respectively. The recovery rates were 91.6%-102.7%. RSDs were 2.2%-10.2%. Conclusion The present method can perfectly separate the seven preservatives in cosmetics mentioned above with some advantages, such as simple, accurate, sensitive and quick.
