Germall PLUS is an ideal preservative system for shampoos, hair
conditioners and emulsion products. Germall PLUS minimizes the
problems associated with incorporating solid Parabans. It
dissolves completely in cosmetic formulations
concentration over a wide pH range. It can be conveniently
incorporated into cold processed shampoos and into creams and
lotions during their manufacture. The preferred method of
addition of Germall PLUS is to add it slowly to the product with
good stirring just prior to the addition of the fragrance.
Germall PLUS has also been successfully used to preserve
troublesome formulations containing nonionic surfactants,
proteins, soluble collagen, aloe vera extracts and herbal
extracts. The broad spectrum of activity obtained by the
combination of Germall PLUS with methylparaben and propylparaben
provides the preservation protection necessary for sophisticated
personal care products.
