Abstract:

A high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) method was established for the determination of methyl methylanthranilate in sunscreen cosmetics. After extraction, sonication and filtration, the samples were separated by Welch Xtimate® C18 chromatographic column, and qualitative and quantitative analysis were carried out by HPLC with PDA detector. Under the experimental conditions, there is a good linear relationship between peak areas and methyl methylanthranilate concentrations with the r value is 0.999 6. The detection limit is 0.009%, and the limit of quantification is 0.029%. The average recoveries are in the range of 99.33%-111.5% and the relative standard deviations are in the range of 0.3%-3.0%. This accurate and exclusive method is suitable for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of methyl methylanthranilate in sunscreen cosmetics.

Key words: methyl methylanthranilate, sunscreen cosmetics, high performance liquid chromatography
