Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental

Cosmetic products are not expected to be sterile. However they shall not contain excessive amounts of microorganisms nor specified

23、microorganisms that have the potential to affect the product quality or consumer safety. Moreover, some cosmetic products which are considered to have low microbiological risk (see ISO 29621) may not need to be subjected to routine microbiological testing and manufacturers can decide not to test if

24、they can ensure products meet this standard.The manufacturer should follow the Good Manufacturing Practices described in ISO 22716 and take the necessary precautions to limit the introduction of microorganisms from raw materials, processing and packaging. When necessary, microbiological testing may

25、be performed using ISO 21148, ISO 21149, ISO 16212, ISO 18415, ISO 18416, ISO 21150, ISO 22717, and ISO 22718.The objective of this International Standard is to develop acceptable quantitative and qualitative limits for cosmetic finished products.

However, it is considered that particular attention should be paid to cosmetics specifically intended for use in the eye area, for children under three years of age and on mucous membranes where less than or equal to 1 102CFU per gra

34、m or ml of product is considered acceptable. In addition, interpretation of out of limit results shall consider the inherent variability of the plate count method (see Table 1).Additionally it is expected that product shall be free from E. coli, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa and C. albicans in 1 g or 1 m

35、l of product.This International Standard sets microbiological limits for cosmetics. When necessary, International standard test methods (see Annex A) should be used to assess compliance.4 Microbiological limits for cosmeticsTo ensure the quality of the product and consumer safety it is crucial that

36、the number of non-specified microorganisms recovered from the product remains stable or declines over the product life. The presence of non-specified microorganisms shall not be considered as objectionable, provided that they do not have the ability to grow in the product. This can be based on a ris
