In the USA: |
Not restricted in any way if used as a cosmetic ingredient. Classified by the FDA as a Category I (safe and effective), OTC drug (skin protectant) if used as an active ingredient. |
In the EU: (76/768/EEC) |
No direct regulations. No limitations; permitted for cosmetic use. |
In Japan: |
Not specifically regulated according to the Standards for Cosmetics, enacted by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. |
APPLICATIONS
In pharmaceuticals and dermatology, allantoin is used in the treatment of ulcers, slow-healing wounds and burns. Addition of it to wound ointments and healing compositions promotes wound cleansing and healing. Allantoin has been classified by the US FDA OTC Topical Analgesic Review Panel as a Category I active ingredient (skin protectant), at use-levels of 0.5-2.0%. The FDA approved applications include minor cuts, scrapes, burns, sunburn, fever blisters, diaper rash and chafed, chapped, cracked or wind burned skin and lips.
In cosmetics, allantoin is used in numerous preparations, where it enhances cell renewal, skin soothing, skin moisturizing, cleansing and healing action. In addition, it has the advantages of being non-toxic, non-irritating and effective in low concentrations. Allantoin promotes cell regeneration in skin exposed to and weakened by environmental factors, and helps to promote and maintain the health of intact skin on the body and face. Addition of it to hand lotions and hand creams helps eliminate rough, chapped skin, and leaves hands smooth and soft. In hair care, because of its extraordinarily good keratolytic properties, allantoin is a valuable additive in various products such as shampoos and hair gels, especially for the treatment of dandruff. Allantoin has been incorporated into various lotions and creams, lipsticks, aftershave balms, suntan products, bath foams, baby products and various aerosol preparations. It has also been used in oral hygiene products such as toothpaste and mouthwash. Its good compatibility with most relevant materials also allows it to be easily incorporated into existing formulations.
The recommended use level in cosmetics is 0.1-0.5%.
The information in this document corresponds to the present state of our knowledge and is intended to describe our products and their possible applications. No warranty is either expressed or implied. The values given are recommended guides. All responsibility for determining the most effective use-level remains with the final product manufacturer.

Applications
The active ingredient of SupGuard GM-115, Imidazolidinyl Urea, is permanently listed by the EU at levels up to 0.6% without restrictions. It is one of the most widely used cosmetic preservatives in the world.
SupGuard GM-115 is an effective antibacterial preservative in a wide range of liquid and powder type cosmetic products. It is compatible with essentially all cosmetic ingredients, such as surfactants, proteins, and other special ingredients. As a result of its high solubility in water,
SupGuard GM-115 can be successfully incorporated into cold mix formulations. It is safe and effective for both leave-on and rinse-off products. The recommended use level is 0.2-0.4%.
The information in this publication corresponds to the present state of our knowledge and is intended to describe our products and their possible applications.
No warranty is either expressed or implied. Every cosmetic formulation requires a tailormade preservative system to meet its special needs.
Every developed or modified product should be challenge tested to assure preservative efficacy.

Antimicrobial Activity
SupGuard GM-A provides a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas species; and some protection against yeast and mold.
Toxicological Data
Acute oral toxicity LD50 (mice):3200mg/kg
Eye irritation (rabbits):Non-irritating at 3% aqueous solution
Primary skin irritation (rabbits):Non-irritating at 3% aqueous solution
Applications
The active ingredient of SupGuard GM-A, Diazolidinyl Urea, is permanently listed by the EU at levels up to 0.5% without restrictions.
SupGuard GM-A is safe for both leave-on and rinse-off products and provides effective protection at low concentration levels. It is typically used at concentrations from 0.1-0.3%.
SupGuard GM-A is compatible with virtually all cosmetic ingredients. It is not inactivated by emulsifiers, proteins or other ingredients that affect other preservative materials.
SupGuard GM-A is an excellent preservative for shampoos and hair conditioners. It is synergistic with other preservative materials, especially parabens and/or Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate (IPBC). This combination is a complete cosmetic preservative systems that is effective at protecting well formulated products from bacterial, yeast and mold contamination during use. The activity against yeast and mold does not decrease while SupGuard GM-A is used in combination with parabens even when paraben effectiveness has been diminished by interaction with nonionics or proteins, or migration into the oil phase.
The information in this publication corresponds to the present state of our knowledge and is intended to describe our products and their possible applications.

Acute dermal toxicity LD50 (rabbits): |
﹥5000mg/kg |
Eye irritation (rabbits): |
Non-irritating at 0.5% aqueous solution |
Primary skin irritation (rabbits): |
Non-irritating at 0.5% aqueous solution |
Applications in Cosmetics
The active ingredients of SupGuard K15 are globally approved as a safe, effective preservative for rinse-off products such as shampoos and conditioners. It is listed in the USA and the EU respectively as an approved cosmetic preservative at levels up to 0.0015% of active ingredients.
SupGuard K15 does not bioaccumulate. It is biodegradable and degrades rapidly to non-toxic, non-persistent substances in the environment. SupGuard K15 is effective and stable up to pH8. It is generally compatible with most components of formulations. However, the presence of a few agents such as thiols, mercaptans, secondary amines, sulfides and other nucleophiles will cause degradation of the active ingredients. Conditions of temperatures in excess of 50℃ for long periods of time and pH above 8 will lead to loss of activity.
The maximum recommended use level is 0.1% by weight of product as supplied in rinse-off products and 0.05% in leave-on products.

Applications in Cosmetics
The active ingredient of SupGuard G, DMDM Hydantoin, is permitted for use in cosmetic and personal care products in the USA and the EU to a maximum concentration of 0.6%.
SupGuard G is compatible with essentially all cosmetic ingredients, such as surfactants, emulsifiers, proteins, aloe and amines. SupGuard G is an excellent preservative for both leave-on and rinse-off products such as shampoos, creams, lotions, bubble baths, rinses, wipes and towelettes. It is easy to handle, very stable and cost-effective. The recommended use level is 0.1~0.6% by weight of product as supplied.
SupGuard G exhibits an excellent synergistic preservative effect in combination with Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate (IPBC), Parabens and Isothiazolinones. It is stable over a wide range of pH and temperature conditions. It does not discolor product when combined with additives or by changes in pH. It can be added at a wide range of temperatures from ambient to elevated 80℃.

Applications in Cosmetics
The active ingredient of SupGuard BN is 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol or Bronopol. It is listed in the USA and the EU respectively as an approved cosmetic preservative at levels up to 0.1%.
SupGuard BN is an excellent preservative for both leave-on and rinse-off products such as creams, lotions, shampoos, rinses, wipes and towelettes. The recommended use level is 0.02~0.05%.
SupGuard BN is compatible with most cosmetic ingredients such as surfactants, emulsifiers, proteins and natural extracts. It is synergistic with other preservatives such as isothiazolinones, parabens and Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate (IPBC). Its optimum pH range of use is 4~8. It should be added as the last ingredient and at the lowest temperature (≤50℃) if possible.
Conditions of high temperatures, alkaline and sunlight will cause degradation of the active ingredient. The presence of a few agents such as sulfhydryl compounds, sulfite, hyposulfite, aluminous and ferreous materials will lead to loss of activity. The use of secondary amines should be avoided in formulations.
