Common types of microbial contamination in household care products
The common types of microbial contamination in household care products include bacteria, molds and yeasts.
Bacteria are easy to move in a humid, warm, organic-rich environment. Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other bacteria are common contaminating strains in liquid detergent products. Among them, Pseudomonas aeruginosa exists in large quantities in the water environment, and has repeatedly caused the pollution of toiletries and cosmetics products.
Molds can often survive and multiply in humid environments, and grow various filamentous and other myceliums that are visible to the naked eye. When the product is contaminated by mold visible to the naked eye, it is basically accompanied by a large number of bacteria multiplying. The probability of mold growth in sanitary products is less than that of bacteria, but once it occurs, it is almost impossible to save. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a broad-spectrum and efficient preservative that can simultaneously control bacteria, mold and fungal strains.
Our company has developed and widely used daily chemical series antiseptic preservatives, which can be used in daily chemical products such as cosmetics and personal care products. It is a new generation of antiseptic and antifungal agents.
