:D thanks! God Bless!Help!assignment describe the duties of a quality control chemist working in a cosmetic manufacturing compnay?
You have all the key words needed to do a detailed search - use any advance search (i.e. google, dog pile, etc)
In the search all words: ';quality control, chemist, cosmetic';
You will find things as:
Responsibilities:
1. Formulate from concept to finish
2. Duplicate prototype
3. Understand each ingredient function and use
4. Understand regulatory requirements and perform CTFA search
5. Interact closely with Marketing and customers to develop formulas
6. Test product performance
7. Troubleshoot scale-up issues
8. Supervise pilot and first three production batches
9. Perform stability and troubleshoot unstable formulas
Chemist Responsibilities:
- Analytical chemistry testing on raw materials
- Operate all lab instruments to perform analytical test methods, troubleshoot problems with instruments.
- Drug Stability Program and active testing on OTC drug products.
Of course - individual companies will have their own set of requirements. You could also search of some of the big csometic companies to see what type of chemistry they do.
Another source of information is the American Society for Quality (ASQ) 800-248-1946 or http://www.asq.org
If you call them, ask for a contact person with the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Division. Contact that person and they can direct you to a lot of information.
The ASQ also has a number of professional certification exams - one of the top level exams is the ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE). Any chemist who wants to be the top in quality control should consider taking that exam. The Body of Knowledge (or skills needed is a long list of technical stuff). - http://www.asq.org/certification/quality鈥?/a> - it is far to long to type here so go to the website.
This should get you started on the homework
