1 508 SYMMETRY FOAMING HAND SANITIZER with Aloe & Vitamin E Technical Data Physical Properties Active Ingredient: Ethyl Alcohol 62% (70% v/v) Appearance: Clear, Colorless Solution Fragrance: Floral Form: Liquid ph: Preservative Testing Determination of the effectiveness of the preservative system against repeated bacterial, yeast, and mold challenges. United States Pharmacopeia/ National Formulary Antimicrobial Effectiveness (Preservative) Test <51> bacteria, yeast, and mold to confirm the preservative system will kill these contaminants. The USF/NF protocol was modified to include repeat challenges. The study included all appropriate sterility and neutralization controls. Test Organisms: Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 Escherichia coli ATCC 8739 Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027 Candida albicans ATCC Aspergillus niger ATCC (continued on back of page) Clinical Research Laboratories, Inc. (Piscataway, NJ) Met and exceeded USP/NF performance requirements after each challenge.
2 Repeat Insult Patch Test Determination of potential for dermal irritation or sensitization. Repeat Insult Patch Test Shelanski Method Nine applications of product were conducted during the Induction Phase. Applications included applying the product to the same skin site of at least 50 human subjects for 24 hours. Sites were evaluated for irritation throughout the study. After a day rest period, product application was repeated on a new skin area to assess the potential for sensitization. Clinical Research Laboratories, Inc. (Piscataway, NJ) No irritation or sensitization reactions were observed throughout the study. Antimicrobial Effectiveness Studies Laboratory: Evaluation of antimicrobial effectiveness when challenged with a broad spectrum of microorganisms.
