Salicylic acid (salicylate derivative) dosage

The dosage of salicylic acid, a derivative of salicylates , is essential to assess the concentration of this compound with keratolytic, antimicrobial and preservative properties. It is mainly sought in cosmetic formulations (lotions, creams, shampoos), plant extracts (such as willow bark), or certain functional agri-food products.

The analysis is generally carried out by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), sometimes coupled with UV or MS detection depending on the complexity of the matrix. This method guarantees high precision and makes it possible to verify compliance with authorized regulatory thresholds. The analysis is also relevant to ensure the stability and efficacy of formulations containing this active ingredient.

At YesWeLab , we collaborate with a rigorously selected network of laboratories, most of which are certified and/or accredited (ISO 17025, COFRAC, etc.). These laboratories are chosen based on your specific needs, the matrices to be analyzed, and the analytical techniques or methods required.
