Abstract
Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), was used to extract sunscreen agents f rom cosmetic products. The extracts were analyzed by liquid chromatography (LC). The present method allows the determination of three sunscreen agents , Eusolex 2292, 4360 and 6300. The precision of the assay at 40 mu g/ml of sunscreen agents ranged from 1.5 to 2.2%, and the detection limits were 2.0 -4.0 ng/ml. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
