22、lity and safety for consumers. Microbiological risk analysis depends on several parameters such as: potential alteration of cosmetic products; pathogenicity of microorganisms; site of application of the cosmetic product (hair, skin, eyes, mucous membranes); type of user (adults, children, including
23、under 3 years). For cosmetics and other topical products, the detection of Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans may be relevant because they can cause skin or eye infections. The detection of other kinds of microorganism might be of interest since those microorganisms (
24、including indicators of faecal contamination, e.g. Escherichia coli) suggest hygienic failure during the manufacturing process.

25、ense from IHS-,-,-1Cosmetics Microbiology Detection of Candida albicans 1 Scope This International Standard gives general guidelines for the detection and identification of the specified microorganism Candida albicans in cosmetic products. Microorganisms considered as specified in this International
26、 Standard might differ from country to country according to national practices or regulations. In order to ensure product quality and safety for consumers, it is advisable to perform an appropriate microbiological risk analysis so as to determine the types of cosmetic product to which this Internati
27、onal Standard is applicable. Products considered to present a low microbiological risk include those with low water activity, hydro-alcoholic products, those with extreme pH values, etc. The method described in this International Standard is based on the detection of Candida albicans in a non-select
28、ive liquid medium (enrichment broth), followed by isolation on a selective agar medium. Other methods may be appropriate dependent on the level of detection required. NOTE For the detection of Candida albicans, subcultures can be performed on non-selective culture media followed by suitable identifi
29、cation steps (e.g. using identification kits). Because of the large variety of cosmetic products within this field of application, this method might not be suited in every detail to some products (e.g. certain water-immiscible products). Other International Standards (e.g. ISO 18415) might be approp
30、riate. Other methods (e.g. automated) can be substituted for the test presented here provided that their equivalence has been demonstrated or the method has been otherwise validated. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

35、 product because it can cause skin or eye infections or is an indication of hygienic failure 3.6 Candida albicans yeast that form white to beige, creamy and convex colonies on the surface of a selective medium NOTE The main characteristic for identification is the production of germ tube and/or pseu
36、domycelium and chlamydospore when the test is performed following the method specified in this International Standard. 3.7 enrichment broth non-selective liquid medium containing suitable neutralizers and/or dispersing agents and validated for the product under test 4 Principle The first step of the
37、 procedure is to perform an enrichment by using a non-selective broth medium to increase the number of microorganisms without the risk of inhibition by the selective ingredients that are present in selective/differential growth media. The second step (isolation) of the test is performed on a selecti
38、ve medium followed by identification tests. To prevent the possible inhibition of microbial growth by the sample it shall be neutralized to allow the detection of viable microorganisms 1. In all cases and whatever the methodology, the neutralization of the antimicrobial properties of the product sha
39、ll be checked and validated 2, 3, 4. 5 Diluents and culture media 5.1 General General instructions are given in ISO 21148. When water is mentioned in this International Standard, use distilled water or purified water as specified in ISO 21148. The enrichment broth is used to disperse the sample and
40、to increase the initial microbial population. It may contain neutralizers if the specimen to be tested has antimicrobial properties. The efficacy of the neutralization shall be demonstrated (see Clause 11). Information relative to suitable neutralizers is given in Annex B. The enrichment broth (5.3.
41、3.1), or any of the ones listed in Annex A, is suitable for checking the presence of Candida albicans in accordance with this International Standard provided that it is validated in accordance with Clause 11. Other diluents and culture media may be used if it has been demonstrated that they are suit
42、able for use.
