Biodegradability Testing of Cosmetic Microplastics
The biodegradability testing of cosmetic microplastics is a critical service that ensures products meet stringent environmental and regulatory standards. In recent years, the global cosmetics industry has faced increasing scrutiny regarding the environmental impact of microplastic particles used in various formulations. These tiny plastic particles are often found in exfoliants, toothpaste, and other personal care products, and their persistence in natural environments poses significant ecological risks.
The primary focus of biodegradability testing is to assess whether these microplastics can be broken down by microorganisms into less harmful substances over a specified period. This service aligns with the broader goal of sustainable product development, where manufacturers aim to reduce the environmental footprint of their products without compromising efficacy or consumer satisfaction.
At [Laboratory Name], we employ advanced analytical techniques and adhere to international standards such as ISO 14976:2018 for biodegradability testing.
