[Simultaneous determination of six polyhydroxyl compounds in cosmetics and toothpaste using high performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light-scattering detection].

With the full implementation of the cosmetic formula ingredient registration system and the standardized management of labels and identification, the ingredients registered and declared on the label must be consistent with the actual ingredients contained in the product. Further, cosmetic manufacturers require accurate determination of the ingredients in cosmetics for formula analysis. Therefore, a method for the simultaneous determination of six polyhydroxyl compounds, Pro-Xylane, xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol, sucrose, and inositol, in cosmetics and toothpaste was established.
