Methylchloroisothiazolinone (and) methylisothiazolinone Methylchloroisothiazolinone (and) methylisothiazolinone (MCl/MI ; Kathon CG, Euxyl K100) The isothiazolinones are, perhaps the most potent allergens on the consumer market. They are very effective preservatives. However, under suitable dilution and exposure conditions, even the most potent allergen can be used safely. The commercial product (Kathon CG) contains only 1.5% of the active ingredients (the ratio of which is 3:1) with the remainder being water and magnesium salts that stabilise the system. The patch test concentration of the actives is 100ppm in water. The preservative was responsible for an epidemic of contact sensitivity, in some geographical areas, in the 1980s and early 1990s. The patent on the original system is expiring. Methylchloroisothiazolinone (and) methylisothiazolinone is the INCI name for the preservative and this is the name that must appear on cosmetic ingredient listing in the European and USA markets if a product contains it.
