Overview

The EN ISO 22717:2015/A1:2022 standard is a critical amendment to the existing ISO 22717:2015, addressing the microbiological detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cosmetics. Developed collaboratively by ISO/TC 217 and CEN/TC 392 under the supervision of CEN, it was officially approved in September 2022 and published to harmonize cosmetic microbiology testing across European nations and beyond.

This amendment introduces vital updates in the methodology, specifically revising enrichment broths used to detect Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a common and potentially harmful pathogen in cosmetics. Compliance with this standard ensures product safety, regulatory adherence, and maintenance of consumer health by facilitating accurate and reliable microbiological analysis.

Key Topics

• Scope of Amendment
  EN ISO 22717:2015/A1:2022 modifies the detection procedure for Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cosmetic products, an essential pathogen monitoring parameter in cosmetic microbiology.

• New Enrichment Medium: Modified Eugon LT Broth
  The amendment introduces an alternative enrichment broth named Modified Eugon LT broth, detailing its specific composition and preparation method:

  • Composition includes pancreatic digest of casein, papaic digest of soybean meal, sodium chloride, L-cystine, sodium sulphite, glucose, egg lecithin, polysorbate 80, sodium lauryl ether sulfate, and water.
  • Preparation instructions prescribe dissolving ingredients in boiling water, sterilization at 121 °C for 15 minutes, and pH adjustment to 7.0 ± 0.2. This new broth offers improved or alternative conditions for the selective growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa during microbiological testing.

• Methodological Updates
  The amendment lays out precise technical changes to the microbiological methods section, specifically enhancing subsection 5.3.3 to include the Modified Eugon LT broth as a validated alternative, expanding testing flexibility.

• Regulatory Implementation
  The standard has been mandated for adoption by CEN members, including all European Union countries plus the UK, Turkey, and others, with a compliance deadline by March 2023 to replace any conflicting national standards.

Applications

• Cosmetic Product Safety Testing
  Laboratories and manufacturers apply this standard during routine microbiological quality control to detect Pseudomonas aeruginosa, preventing contaminated products from reaching consumers.

• Regulatory Compliance
  Helps companies meet European regulatory requirements and international safety expectations in microbiological testing of cosmetics.

• Quality Assurance in Production
  Incorporation of the modified broth medium enhances robustness and reliability of microbial detection, supporting better quality assurance practices.

• Research and Development
  Cosmetic formulators and microbiologists use this standard as a reference to optimize preservation and formulation strategies to inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa contamination.

Related Standards

• ISO 22716: Cosmetics - Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)
  Complements ISO 22717 by outlining hygienic practices in cosmetic production to mitigate microbial contamination risk.

• EN ISO 11930:2019 Cosmetics - Microbiology - Evaluation of antimicrobial protection of a cosmetic product
  Assesses preservative efficacy relevant to controlling microbial contaminants such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

• ISO 18416:2007 Cosmetics - Microbiology - Detection of specified microorganisms
  Provides methodologies for identifying microbial species including pathogens relevant to cosmetics.

• CEN/TC 392 Technical Standards for Cosmetics
  The European framework ensuring harmonization and enforcement of cosmetic product safety and testing requirements.
