Yes these are the academic articles I’m referring to - do formulators generally actually apply this science in real life when they’re formulating antidandruff shampoos?

Please weigh in if you’ve formulated anti-dandruff shampoo(s) with piroctone olamine 🙂

Yes there isn’t much material on piroctone olamine and coacervation.

Ketchito and PhilGeis, have either of you developed antidandruff shampoos with piroctone olamine using coacervation?

Or any other formulators here at Chemists Corner?

If formulators on this forum are not skilled in this art, then maybe it’s not commonly done with piroctone. How the formulas are then made to ensure enough piroctone deposits on the scalp, hopefully it’s not just marketing claims with the right ingredients.

Some good points there, thank you. It’s nice to learn from people in the know.

It could also be because many anti-dandruff shampoos are now made with piroctone olamine, I understand particle dissolution kinetics doesn’t play much of a role there, but perhaps the coacervation is not as important in these formulas?

I’m going to order the Mikrocount
kits from Schulke and repeat

These dipslides have 2 sides - one side is Rose Bengal for fungi, and the other side is TTC for bacteria.
