Abstract

A total of 81 handmade soaps on sale on the market were collected from January to November 2022. To compare quality characteristics, all ingredients were referred to, and the pH, dry reduction, heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, antimony, and mercury), and contents of free alkali were measured. All soaps had a slightly alkaline pH of 7.9 to 11.2, average drying loss was 17.6%, and free alkali was hardly detected. The average values of all heavy metals were 0.104 ㎍/g for lead, 0.035 ㎍/g for arsenic, 0.002 ㎍/g for cadmium, 0.048 ㎍/g for antimony, and 0.0003 ㎍/g for mercury. The results of handmade soap were below the recommended in regulations on safety standards for cosmetics of Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

2022 년 1 월에서 11 월까지 유통 중인 수제비누 총 81 건을 수집하였다. 품질특성을 비교하기 위해 전성분 기재사항을 참조하였으며 pH, 건조감량, 중금속(납, 비소, 카드뮴, 안티몬 및 수은) 및 유리알칼리의 함량을 측정 하였다. 그 결과 pH 7.9 ~ 11.2, 평균 건조감량 17.6% 이었으며 유리알칼리는 거의 검출되지 않았다. 전체 시료의 중금속 평균값은 납 0.104 ㎍/g, 비소 0.035 ㎍/g, 카드뮴 0.002 ㎍/g, 안티몬 0.048 ㎍/g, 수은 0.0003 ㎍/g로 「화장품 안전기준 등에 관한 규정」에서 제시한 허용기준 납 20 ㎍/g, 비소 10 ㎍/g, 카드뮴 5 ㎍/g, 안티몬 10 ㎍/g 및 수은 1 ㎍/g 보다 매우 낮은 수준으로 검출되었다.
