TS 11033 - Determination of Methanol in Cosmetic Products

TS 11033 standard, This standard covers the gas chromatography method used in the determination of methanol in cosmetic products. Methanol, which is basically used as a tool or solvent in cosmetic products, has a simple chemical structure and can easily dissolve many materials for itself. Apart from its solvent feature, it is also used as a denaturant.

The use of methanol in cosmetic products is limited. Methanol, which is a limited toxic substance, has harmful effects on the respiratory tract and mucous membranes. High levels of methanol taken into the body by inhalation or skin absorption may cause health problems. Methanol residues in cosmetic products have become a troubling issue for consumers.

It is thought that the average absorption of 30 ml of methanol is harmful in the studies. In cosmetic products, methanol determination is carried out by Gas Chromatography.
