摘要

化妝品無時無刻存在被汙染的可能性，加上台灣氣候潮濕，易滋生微生物，產品若未妥善保存而遭受變質或污染，將嚴重影響化妝品對消費者的衛生安全。本研究歷經兩年之研究與分析，由某檢驗公司委託之化妝品樣品進行微生物之檢驗。受測樣品共34件， 其中包括眼部用品3件、面膜2件、清潔用化妝品14件、面霜乳液類12件及精油髮妝類3件。研究結果顯示其中3件樣品之生菌數含量超出公告標準， 分別為面膜(1件)、洗髮乳及潤髮乳(2件)； 而其中的洗髮乳與潤髮乳並同時檢驗出綠膿桿菌(Pseudomonas aeruginosa)。其他樣品均未檢出大腸桿菌(Escherichia coli) 、綠膿桿菌及金黃色葡萄球菌(Staphylococcusaureus)。不合格率為8.82%，顯示目前市面上販售的化妝品絕大部分皆符合衛生標準。

Cosmetics are contaminated with strong possibility because of high humidity in Taiwan. The climate favors to the bacterial growth in the cosmetic products. If the cosmetic products were contaminated, it would seriously affect the health of consumers. In this study, thirty-four cosmetic samples including three eye-area products, two masks, fourteen cleaning cosmetics, twelve cream/lotion products and three hair treatment products were collected and bacteria numbers in the cosmetic products were also analyzed from 2014 to 2015. Results showed that viable bacteria counts in three cosmetic products were higher than the announced regulation limit: one was mask and others were shampoo/conditioner products. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was also found in the shampoo/conditioner products. As for the other cosmetic products, Escherichia coli, P. aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus were not detected. A failure rate of 8.82% indicates the bacteria concentrations in almost cosmetic products are lower than announced regulation limit in Taiwan.
