My thanks to everyone who responded . I thought I'd get this new information to the list in case I have any biotech / cosmetic chemistry brethren out there with similar needs. I found a good textbook I've been working with at the Allured Publishing site : Title: Beginning Cosmetic Chemistry, Second Edition Authors: Randy Schueller , Perry Romanowski Copyright : 2003 It's addressed to chemists beginning a career in personal care formulation and discusses good practices, the segments of the industry , and many other practical topics in 4 sections. = Orientation, Tools, & Terms = Cosmetic Ingredients and Vehicles = Product Development = Product Testing Lucille Lattanzi Engelhard Corporation ph: 631-689-0200, x 2227 fx: 631-689-6880 lucille.lattanzi at engelhard.com Lucille Lattanzi Engelhard Corporation ph: 631-689-0200, x 2227 fx: 631-689-6880 lucille.lattanzi at engelhard.com
