Other surfactant- based products, for example liquid dishwashing detergents, are generally preserved with Phenonip® XB over the range 0.2 %- 0.6 %. Emulsified systems, both O\/W and W\/O types, may be effectively preserved by the addition of Phenonip® XB at 0.6 %- 0.8 %. Phenonip® XB can also be used to preserve emulsions based on nonionic surfactants, but slightly increased concentrations may be required, e.g. 0.8 -1 %.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhenonip® XB can be added to the aqueous phase readily up to its limit of solubility. The relatively low aqueous solubility of Phenonip® XB means that if the water content of the formulation is low, it may not be convenient to add the preservative directly to water during manufacture. Heating the water to 60 – 70°C prior to Phenonip® XB addition will, in most instances, allow the appropriate quantity to be dissolved. For aqueous systems which cannot be heated, Phenonip® XB can be incorporated by preparing a concentrate in a suitable solvent, e.g. Propylene Glycol, and stirring this concentrate into the water to give a final Phenonip® XB concentration below its maximum water solubility. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn emulsified systems, Phenonip® XB is readily dissolved in the lipid phase prior to emulsification although it is often good practice to divide the Phenonip® XB content between the aqueous and the lipid phases during their preparation.

Antioxidants, like those found in elderberries, are excellent additions to skin care regimens as they provide protection from free radicals that contribute to cell damage, aging, and wrinkle formation. Bioflavoinoids, which can also be found in elderberries, exhibit astringent properties that help tighten the skin and provide additional anti-wrinkle benefits. This unique superfruit is also an excellent source of undecylenic acid, an organic fatty acid that provides broad antimicrobial benefits, but is especially effective against fungal microorganisms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhytocide Elderberry OS is ECOCert\/COSMOS approved and Whole Foods compliant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eSuggested Applications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkin Conditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial for anhydrous products (lip balms, lip sticks, scrubs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial for oil-containing cosmetic formulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePhytocide Elderberry OS\u003c\/span\u003e is GMO Free and no ethoxylation, irradiation, sulphonation, hydrogenation, or ethylene oxide is used in processing.  There are no solvents used in its extraction and it contains no added preservatives or antioxidants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eK\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eey Benefits\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOil soluble\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNaturally derived botanical extract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat stable to 75°C (167°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eREACH Status - fully compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelivers anti-aging skin conditioning benefits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural antimicrobial efficacy for cosmetic formulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be used with other antimicrobials for broad spectrum activity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease refer to the Fact Sheet (MSDS\/Tech Data Tab) to download the Technical Data Sheet for more information on Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Double Challenge Tests performed using PhytoCide Elderberry as a preservative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eINCI:\u003c\/span\u003e Sambucus Nigra Fruit Extract\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/8317\/5001\/files\/website-symbols-05_100x100.png?v=1585245040\" alt=\"natural\" align=\"top\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/8317\/5001\/files\/website-symbols-03_61d478b9-f047-44c3-a50a-fa0b2e1199c7_100x100.png?v=1586814816\" alt=\"non-gmo\" align=\"top\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eCalifornia Prop 65 Statement: \u003c\/span\u003eThe following statement is made in order to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986.

It readily dissolves in water where it converts to sorbic acid, its active form, at a low pH. Sorbic acid is very pH dependent. While it shows some activity up to pH 6 (about 6%), it is most active at pH 4.4 (70%). At pH 5.0 it is 37% active. As sorbic acid, it is considered to be active against mold, fair against yeast and poor against most bacteria. Sorbic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid and as such is subject to oxidation (use of an antioxidant like Mixed Tocopherols T50 is recommended). It is also sensitive to UV light and may turn yellow in solution.  Gluconolactone is reported to stabilize potassium sorbate against discoloration and darkening in aqueous solutions and may be useful in stabilizing sorbic acid in the water phase of a product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile sorbic acid is naturally occurring in some fruits (like the berries of the mountain ash), virtually all of the world's production of sorbic acid, from which potassium sorbate is derived, is manufactured synthetically, and is a nature-identical compound chemically equivalent to the molecule found in nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSorbic acid can cause contact dermatitis at concentrations above or below 0.5%.

If potassium sorbate is used as a preservative, the pH of the finished product may need to be reduced for potassium sorbate to be effective.  This is because potassium sorbate is the inactive salt form of sorbic acid.  To be useful, the pH of the formulation must be low enough to release the free acid for useful activity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing is a chart to of the relative activity at various pH:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" height=\"123\" style=\"width: 279px;\"\u003e\n\u003ccaption\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eActivity of Sorbic Acid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/caption\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003epH\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 204px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e% Active Sorbic Acid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 68px;\"\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 204px;\"\u003e98\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 68px;\"\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 204px;\"\u003e85\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 68px;\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 204px;\"\u003e37\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 68px;\"\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 204px;\"\u003e5.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 68px;\"\u003e7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center; width: 204px;\"\u003e0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll cosmetic products should undergo microbial testing to ensure the efficacy of any preservative system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eINCI:\u003c\/span\u003e Potassium Sorbate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eCalifornia Prop 65 Statement: \u003c\/span\u003eThe following statement is made in order to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986.
