Efficacy of antimicrobial preservation and acceptance criteria for preparations for cutaneous use2 and the specialty literature. The sample under study was forcedly contaminated with suspensions (105/mL) of Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans and Aspergillus brasiliensis and the times studied were 0, 2, 7, 14, 21, 28 days. Results: Acceptance criteria for antimicrobial efficacy are presented as a logarithmic reduction in the number of viable microorganisms, calculate the ratio between the number of UFC/ mL from baseline (T0) and the number of UFC/ mL determined for each test time and have been fully met. Conclusions: The pharmacopoeia requirements were entirely met for the gel product, and the cream did not prove efficacy on the Candida albicans microorganism.
