Abstract
Achyrocline satureioides is a South American herb used in traditional medicine to treat a wide range of ailments. The healing and antimicrobial effects of this plant have already been covered by many studies, which have confirmed its beneficial effects on human health. In this study, the antimicrobial effect of A. satureioides hydroalcoholic extract against Escherichia coli ATCC10536, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC12228 and Lactobacillus acidophilus INCQS00076 was determined. The cytotoxicity of the extract was tested on human HaCaT keratinocytes showing very favourable effects on the proliferation and renewal of keratinocytes. According to the results of the HPLC and GC-MS analyses, the lyophilized extract contained only a minimal amount of fragrance allergens. The extract was then used in two cosmetic formulations, and one of them showed a significant synergistic interaction with other cosmetic components. We suggest the use of A.satureioides hydroalcoholic extract as a suitable antimicrobial component of natural origin for cosmetic preparations as a substitute for commonly used preservatives that can cause skin irritation and as a material with its own biological activity.

Abstract
Aromas can give smell and/or flavor to a variety of products in the cosmetic and food industry. They are also used as e-cigarette additives. Some of those substances are recognized as fragrance allergens and can cause allergic reactions so there is a need to control their use. Gas chromatography is the method of choice for analyzing fragrance allergens because of their low boiling points. This study aimed to develop and validate a robust and simple method for the analysis of fragrance allergens in aromas for e-cigarettes. A method using gas chromatography coupled with a flame ionization detector was developed for 25 fragrance allergens. Optimized parameters were sample diluent, internal standard, and carrier gas. The output method was the one previously developed and optimized. The linearity of the method was >0.994 over the range of 0.5-40 μg/mL. Accuracy and precision were within the acceptance range. Limits of detection and quantification were determined, and calibration curves were plotted. The method was applied to three real samples of aromas. Thirteen fragrance allergens were detected. Concentrations varied in the range of dozens to thousands of μg/mL showed that concentrations of fragrances in aromas for e-cigarettes can be high and varies among products.
