RESUMO
An analytical method was developed for the determination of the preservative of chlorphenesin in cosmetics by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A C18 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) and a photodiode array detector were used. The mobile phase was methanol-water (55:45, v/v) with a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 280 nm and the column temperature was 25 degrees C. The limit of detection was 3 ng. A good linear relationship was obtained between the peak area and the mass concentration of chlorphenesin in the range of 1 - 500 mg/L and the correlation coefficient was 1.000 0. The recoveries of chlorphenesin at different spiked levels were 99.0% - 103% with the relative standard deviations (RSD) < or = 1.2%. Interference test and sample test were also applied meanwhile and validation experiments were performed by three laboratories. The method is simple, sensitive, accurate, stable and suitable for the determination of chlorphenesin in cosmetics.

A simple determination method for preservative chlorphenesin in cosmetics was developed. Cosmetic samples were dissolved in methanol. The sample solution was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ODS column, using water-methanol (55:45) or water-acetonitrile (3:1) adjusted to pH 2.5 with phosphoric acid as the mobile phase. Chlorphenesin was detected with ultraviolet light detection at 280 nm. A linear relation was obtained between the peak areas and the concentrations of chlorphenesin in the range of 1-500 microg/ml. The determination limit of chlorphenesin was 1-2 microg/ml. Recoveries of chlorphenesin spiked in lotion and milky lotion at the levels of 0.03% and 0.3% were 98.8-100.0%. This method was applied for cosmetics including 0.03% and 0.3% of chlorphenesin and their content corresponded with the determined values.

A high-pressure liquid chromatographic assay was developed for the determination of chlorphenesin carbamate and its beta-isomeric carbamate. A single 4-mm i.d. X 30-cm column, prepacked with 10 micrometer fully porous silica gel particles, is used with 3% methanol in 50% water-saturated butyl chloride as the mobile phase. The procedure separates chlorphenesin carbamate from several possible impurities in addition to the beta-isomeric carbamate. The assay was applied to bulk drug and compressed tablets. The relative standard deviations for the assays of chlorphenesin carbamate and the beta-isomer are approximately 1 and 2%, respectively.
