Résumé : |
Part I (SOFW Journal, No. 1, 2016) showed how microbiological risks connected with cosmetic products can be evaluated and how such risks can be avoided using conceptual and target-oriented measures. In this regard, the safety assessment represents a measure to check for unacceptable risks.
Even after selection, verification and application of counter-measures for avoiding microbiological risks, contamination may occur, which will be detected in the course of product checks during manufacture or when complaint samples are tested. In such cases, an evaluation must be performed regarding the hazards for the product and the user during the application period. Consequently, appropriate corrections and corrective actions must be taken. Even though regulatory requirements already set out guidelines for the prevention of risks, case-by-case decisions are also necessary.
Hazard estimation and evaluation in the case of microbial contamination should be done in a systematic, professionally justifiable and traceable way. It has been explained (Part 1) that a risk is defined through the severity and probability of damage. However, in the absence of usable data on microbiological risks as-sociated with cosmetic products, a model should be used which works with contributory factors that influence probability.
The application of this model is described in the following text. The undoubted limitations of this approach are discussed at the end of this article. |
