Book excerpt: This volume of Current Problems in Dermatology presents the reader with a portrait of the scientific background of the complex process of safety assessment of cosmetics as well as information on European cosmetic legislation. A practical approach to the search for toxicity data on cosmetic ingredients and a compilation of the legally required technical dossier of a finished cosmetic product as well as an in-depth analysis of the safety assessment of cosmetic ingredients performed at the EU level by the Scientific Committee on Consumer Products (SCCP) are available. The current status of 3R alternatives to animal testing and the extent to which they are implemented by the cosmetic industry and considered by the SCCP in the risk assessment process is discussed. As such, guidance is provided in relation to the manifold challenges cosmetic safety assessors are faced with in the current EU regulatory setting.In this valuable handbook, qualified cosmetic safety assessors, suppliers of raw materials, dermatologists and pharmacists, toxicologists as well as EU officials and administrators dealing with cosmetics will find relevant information on the European cosmetic legislation, the compilation of cosmetic technical dossiers, toxicological database searches, and the availability and use of alternative methods in the field of cosmetics.

This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das immer grösser werdende Angebot von Produkten führt dazu, dass der Kunde den Marktüberblick verliert, was durch die Tendenz der Produzenten von Produkten und Dienstleistungen, immer mehr emotionale statt informative Werbung zu produzieren, unterstrichen wird. In dieser Situation schafft der vergleichende Warentest eine verbesserte Übersicht des vorhandenen Marktes und verbessert die Information des Kunden zu relevanten Produkteigenschaften, wie z.B. dem Einfluss auf die Umwelt oder dem persönliche Wohlbefinden. Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war es aus der Sicht eines Kunden anhand einer Conjoint-Analyse von einer Studentengrundgesamtheit an schweizerischen Universitäten, herauszufinden, welchen wahrgenommenen Wert ein Testergebnis hat in Bezug auf das Informationsverhalten des Verbrauchers eines Kosmetikartikels und in Bezug zu anderen Eigenschaften. Um Einblick in die Sicht des Produzenten von Kosmetikprodukten zu erhalten, wurde der erkannte Wert eines Warentests und dessen Einbindung in der Marketingstrategie des Unternehmens beurteilt. Dazu wurde eine qualitative Umfrage bei vier Hauptproduzenten von Kosmetika durchgeführt. Die Conjoint-Analyse konnte bestätigen, dass Testresultate den grössten Beitrag an Nutzen erzeugen und dass sie die wichtigsten Eigenschaften im Vergleich zu anderen hervorheben. Die qualitative Umfrage konnte die positive öffentliche Meinung bezüglich der Warentests darstellen, zeigte aber deren schwache Einbindung in der Marketingstrategie, was den Mangel an Erfahrung der Unternehmen auf diesem Gebiet zeigt. Die segmentspezifische Analyse bestätigte die Notwendigkeit die Kommunikation nach dem zu differenzieren, was die Verbraucher bezüglich ihres Informationsverhaltens am wichtigsten finden, d.h. Testresultate, organische Zusammensetzung, Marke und Preis. Der Autor schloss daraus, dass Warentests die Transparenz des Marktes erhöhen, den Informationsprozess aus der Sicht des Verbrauch.

Download or read book Sensory and Consumer Research in Food Product Design and Development written by Howard R. Moskowitz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-04-03 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past thirty years, companies have recognized the consumer as the key driver for business and product success. This recognition has, in turn, generated its own drivers: sensory analysis and marketing research, leading first to a culture promoting the expert and then evolving into the systematic acquisition of consumer-relevant information to build businesses. Sensory and Consumer Research in Food Product Design and Development is the first book to present, from the business viewpoint, the critical issues faced by business leaders from both the research development and business development perspective. This popular volume, now in an updated and expanded second edition, presents a unique perspective afforded by the author team of Moskowitz, Beckley, and Resurreccion: three leading practitioners in the field who each possess both academic and business acumen. Newcomers to the field will be introduced to systematic experimentation at the very early stages, to newly emerging methods for data acquisition/knowledge development, and to points of view employed by successful food and beverage companies. The advanced reader will find new ideas, backed up by illustrative case histories, to provide another perspective on commonly encountered problems and their practical solutions. This book is aimed at professionals in all sectors of the food and beverage industry. Sensory and Consumer Research in Food Product Design and Development is especially important for those business and research professionals involved in the early stages of product development, where business opportunity is often the greatest.
Download or read book The Evaluation of a Health and Beauty Aid Product by a Hispanic Population written by M. Wong and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional procedures for marketing research need to be reviewed when working with a specialized population. This study's Hispanic test group is distinct from the typical population and diverse internally, with societal and attitudinal idiosyncrasies as well as differing language and cultural backgrounds, that can hamper the execution of basic methodology; for example, a mall intercept. This article explores alternative procedurers necessary to conduct consumer testing among Hispanic women. It is based on a substantial study conducted by a major consumer products company, and a major independent research firm and documents the planning and implementation of the study. It draws conclusions about Hispanics as a marketing and sensory research target, offers general direction for researchers approaching the Hispanic market for the first time and discusses such details as the need for over recruitment, nuances of language and various Spanish dialects, the need to simplify directions and the target audience's difficulty in dealing with the concept of quantifying the degree of liking and disliking.
