Compliance overview

Scope and applicability

This standard applies to special bath agents and shower agents formulated primarily with surfactants and antimicrobial/bacteriostatic agents that provide cleaning and antibacterial functions. It does not apply to ordinary bath agents without these specific functions. This standard is crucial for manufacturers producing hygiene products intended for public health emergencies.

Technical requirements

The standard specifies material requirements, mandating that raw materials, antimicrobial agents, and preservatives must comply with relevant national regulations. It outlines sensory and physicochemical indicators which must meet the baseline requirements of QB 1994, including its mandatory provisions. The core hygiene indicators (Clause 3.3) are mandatory. It distinguishes between antibacterial and bacteriostatic product types, setting specific bactericidal and bacteriostatic rate limits, as well as microbial control limits (such as total colony count and fecal coliforms). Compliance with these hygiene indicators is mandatory for market access. The standard also requires that the antibacterial and bacteriostatic efficacy remains stable throughout the shelf life, and specifies requirements for quantitative packaging.

Testing methods

The standard references specific testing methodologies, including the determination of bactericidal and bacteriostatic rates according to GB 15979-2002, stability testing as per Chapter C.6 of the same standard, and microbial limit testing following the Cosmetic Hygiene Standards. Net content measurement is conducted according to JJF 1070.
