Abstract
At present, the addition of dimethylcyclosiloxanes (DMCs) in cosmetics is being debated and no substantial progress has been made in their safety risk assessment because of the lack of a suitable analytical method. Therefore, it is of theoretical and practical significance to establish a method suitable for the determination of DMCs in cosmetics with different formulation systems. Accordingly, a method based on gel permeation chromatography (GPC) purification combined with gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) was developed for the determination of seven DMCs in cosmetics. The cosmetic samples were extracted by ethyl acetate-cyclohexane (1∶1, v/v), purified by gel permeation chromatography, separated on a DB-5ms column (30.0 m×0.25 mm×0.25 μm), confirmed and detected by gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode, and quantified by the internal standard method with n-hexadecane as the internal standard. Experiments were carried out using n-tetradecane, n-hexadecane, and n-octadecane as the internal standards, and based on the retention time in GPC and GC, n-hexadecane was found to be the suitable choice for further analyses. The extraction efficiency for the target compounds was tested in different solvents such as methanol, n-hexane, acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, and ethyl acetate-cyclohexane (1∶1, v/v). Given the high recovery, ethyl acetate-cyclohexane (1∶1, v/v) was selected as the extraction solvent for analyses. Among the three purification methods (analysis without purification, solid-phase extraction (SPE), and GPC purification), GPC was selected as the best method because of the minimal matrix interference to the target compounds. Under the optimized conditions, the seven DMCs showed good linearities in the range of 0.05-1.0 mg/L. The correlation coefficients (r) were 0.994-0.998, which were greater than the required of the specification (r≥0.990). The limits of detection (LODs, S/N=3) were 0.04-0.08 mg/kg, and the limits of quantification (LOQs, S/N=3) were 0.12-0.24 mg/kg. According to the cosmetic matrix in different formulation systems, standard addition recovery tests at three levels of low, medium, and high were carried out. The average recovery rates of the targets were 85.3%-108.8%. The relative standard deviations (RSDs, n=6) were 3.1%-9.4%. The established method was also employed for the analysis of cosmetics in the market, and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4) and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) were detected at various levels in the cosmetics. The method established in this study has the advantages of operational simplicity, high sensitivity, and good reproducibility, and it allows for the determination of seven DMCs in cosmetics with different formulation systems. The establishment of this method provides a basis for the quality supervision and inspection of DMCs in cosmetics in China, in addition to providing technical support for follow-up health and safety evaluation.Entities:
