The Regulatory Analysis of Primary Aromatic Amines in Cosmetics and Personal Care Products
The Regulatory Analysis of Primary Aromatic Amines in Cosmetics and Personal Care Products
13 Nov 2015Primary aromatic amines (PAAs) have been broadly used in large amounts as a chemical feedstock within the chemical industry, despite some have either a proven or suspected carcinogenic nature. They are used in the production of many products including pharmaceuticals, pesticides, explosive and dyes. To ensure public safety and product efficacy, the cosmetics and personal care industry is high legislated. Hence, various regulated parameters, such as the presence or absence of PAAs, must be monitored and quantified. This application note describes an accurate, fast and robust alternative method for the rapid analysis of PAAs in cosmetic and personal care products.

ACQUITY QDa Mass Detector
WatersThe ACQUITY QDa® Mass Detector gives you certainty above all else. You can minimize the risk of unexpected coelutions or components and confirms trace components with the analytical confidence of mass detection. The ACQUITY QDa® Detector is a mass detector built around the needs of analytical scientists for chromatographic analysis. Robust, reliable and requiring no sample adjustments, it just integrates with your current LC, ACQUITY UPLC, ACQUITY UPC2 and purification systems. You'll enhance the analytical value and productivity of each analysis, and you won't need to run all the additional assays or time-consuming alternative techniques or even wait for results from specialist labs that cost your laboratory productivity. With the ACQUITY QDa® Detector, you now have information-rich mass spectral data to complement data from your current Waters® optical detectors, including the ACQUITY UPLC PDA, TUV, ELS, and FLR detectors, as well as the ACQUITY UPC² PDA Detector. This mass spectral information integrates seamlessly into the same workflow; routinely giving you more complete separation characterization. Features: Intuitive operation More information from every sample Effortless integration Increased efficiency Resolving complexity Applications: Food & Environment Life Sciences and Pharmaceuticals Chemical
