Not in every listWhat this means
Found in the text, but not every source lists it — the text comparison found this change; the EU's own amendment metadata does not list it. The source that does not name it is the EU's own amendment metadata. Both are shown; neither is overruled.
No explanation shipped — the difference between the two versions lies beyond the characters this stage can show, so no explanation was requested.
Each CAS and EC number in these tables links to its own page, which lists every entry that prints it across the acts this record holds.

Annex V LIST OF PRESERVATIVES ALLOWED IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS, Modified§
Explanation, written by a model and checked against the cited text
In entry 39's footnote, the reference to entry 39 was clarified by adding "of Annex V" and by changing the capitalisation of methylchloroisothiazolinone to lower case.
In entry 57, the product type/body parts column was changed from being blank to specifying "Rinse-off products" alongside the unchanged maximum concentration of 0,01 %.
