EN ISO 22718 - Detection of Staphylococcus aureus

The most important issue in cosmetics and personal care products is that they should be of a quality that will not affect the health of the skin during the shelf life. Many physical, chemical and microbiological analyzes are carried out in cosmetic products. Microbiological analyzes performed within the scope of legal regulations and related regulations are mandatory tests.

Microbiological analyzes are carried out within the scope of stability and quality tests in cosmetic products. One of the tests performed within the scope of microbiology analyzes in cosmetic products is "Searching for Staphylococcus aureus".
