At the request of the Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Marshals have seized all skin sanitizers and skin protectants at Clarcon Biological Laboratory's Roy, Utah facility, the FDA announced August 1.  
  
The measure was taken because Clarcon products were found to contain harmful bacteria. The FDA warns consumers not to use any product manufactured by the company. But the agency said no case had been reported.  
  
Clarcon promotes its products as antimicrobial agents that claim to treat open wounds, damaged skin, and protect against various infectious diseases.  
  
The beauty products company already voluntarily recalled the affected products in June 2009 after the FDA revealed high levels of potentially disease-causing bacteria in the products.  
  
Products that need to be discarded include the following:  
  
Citrushield Lotion  
Dermasentials DermaBarrier  
Dermassentials by Clarcon Antimicrobial Hand Sanitizer  
Iron Fist Barrier Hand Treatment  
Skin Shield Restaurant  
Skin Shield Industrial  
Skin Shield Beauty Salon Lotion  
Total Skin Care Beauty
