Scope

This European Standard specifies an analytical method for the detection and quantitative determination of the following anti-dandruff agents: zinc pyrithione, piroctone olamine and climbazole in surfactant-containing cosmetic products in the concentration range from 0,1 g/100 g to 1,0 g/100 g. NOTE The method is also suitable for the determination of ketoconazole and ciclopirox olamine (q.v.

For these purposes, the method has not been validated.
