Antiperspirants and Deodorant Technology: Principles and Applications

 
  March 22, 2011  
     
 
CfPA - The Center for Professional Advancement, New Brunswick, NJ
July 20-21, 2011


Who Should Attend
The course should be of value to those working with cosmetic/toiletry products focused on antiperspirants and deodorant applications, as well as to those in industry and research laboratories interested in a basic understanding of the technologies, clinical aspects, and application of these products.

The course is intended for entry and mid level development technologists, and up-to-date refresher for experienced individuals. Chemists, microbiologists, analytical scientists, and process engineers from the field of cosmetics, toiletries, pharmaceuticals, bioengineering, and food industries will also benefit from the opportunity to understand more about regulations, formulations, and process parameters for an FDA regulated product.

Description
This course is intended to provide a comprehensive review of the fundamental aspects of antiperspirants and deodorants. There will be significant emphasis on the chemistry of antiperspirant and deodorant actives, how they function to inhibit odor or restrict sweat production, what are acceptable protocols and statistics for measuring clinical efficacy of these actives, basic parameters for developing functional products that match consumer needs, and technology and market trends. Though the course will be structured, there will be opportunity for open discussion about specific problems and needs of participants.
