Cosmetic products, which hold an
important place in human life, are products that do not have to be sterile in
terms of microbiology. However, these products can be contaminated with
microorganisms due to various reasons. For this reason, the microbiological
suitability of cosmetic products is very important for consumer health. In this
study, the suitability of hand and facial creams used for cosmetic purposes, which
are not opened at all, and belonging to different firms, to microbiological
criteria have been investigated. For this purpose, a total of 30 cream creams
including 24 hand creams and 6 hand and face creams were used. The number of
total microorganisms in creams was determined by classical counting method, and
selective media were sown. Accordingly, it has been determined that 3 of the 30
cream samples contain more than 1000 microorganisms, which is the permitted
value in the cosmetic regulation. There have also been no cases of the presence
of pathogenic microorganisms such as Escherichia
coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans, which are not desired
to be present in cosmetics at all. However, there were many microorganisms with
or without various pathogens in 16 of the 24 handcreams and 5 of the 6 hands
and facecreams. It has also been observed that some of the creams may contain
many pathogenic and opportunistic pathogenic microorganisms. For this reason,
it is suggested to manufacture in facilities suitable for good manufacturing
conditions in order to prevent contamination in unused products, to protect
consumer's health, to increase product quality and reliability in
microbiological terms. In addition, from the point of view of public health,
inspections of these products and microbial risk analyzes should be done
absolutely.
