Triclosan Alternatives
-
In my opinion the FDA is just a shill for massive manufacturers and isn’t fit for purpose. There is plenty of evidence for other more natural antibacterial ingredients but the FDA wants us to “prove” that? They won’t, it seems, accept published scientific papers.
This hostile attitude is exactly the opposite of that of most other countries. -
What do you think about Triclocarban?
-
@Eli That’s a good question and since it’s a urea derivative I am guessing it would impart some moisturization also. But again it depends on the formula compatibility and its killer properties
-
Thanks @milliachemist ! I have data that shows it has better killer properties than triclosan but about the formula compatibly I don’t know which one is more flexible yet…
-
Since it has been extensively used in soap bars, I am guessing it is supported at higher pH as well but this is totally my thought. I am not sure what is the composition of your recipe but why don’t you just try it out and check.

you’re right! i’ll try ! i need to search in which proportion i have to use it to get negative the test : EN 1276 Chemical Disinfectants Bactericidal Activity Testing.. otherwise i can’t sell the formula. Thanks again
