Abstract:

In response to people’s skin allergies and inflammation during the process of using cosmetics, high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) was used to quickly screen 8 prohibited drugs (minoxidil, estriol, spironolactone, canrenone, estrone, estradiol, diethylstilbestrol, progesterone prog) in cosmetics. The cosmetic samples were extracted by methanol water mixed solution with a certain volume ratio. HLB solid phase extraction column is used to purify cosmetic samples. The chromatographic column was used to separate the reconstituted sample solution. Methanol-water with a concentration of 10 mmol/L was used as the mobile phase for gradient elution. 8 kinds of prohibited drugs in cosmetics were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Experiments have detected that the recovery rate of 8 kinds of cosmetics are between 80% and 96%. The relative standard deviations of 8 kinds of cosmetics are between 3.7% and 8.2%, which can meet the screening requirements of prohibited drugs in cosmetics and improve the accuracy of rapid screening of prohibited drugs in cosmetics.

Key words: high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, cosmetics, prohibited drugs, rapid screening
