Soap question?

1 ⤊

On the back of an antibacterial soap that I bought, it says that it contains 0.6% Triclosan. What is meant by that. Is it 0.6 % of the bottle is troclosan or is it something like weight/volume (0.6g/Liters)

thanks a bajillion!!

They usually mean w/v, as you suggest, but if the densities are quite close to one it doesn't make any serious difference.
