Abstract:
Provided herein is a mouthwash comprising partially hydrolyzed plant protein, which is useful, e.g., in methods of repairing or inhibiting dental erosion, promoting dental remineralization, and/or enhancing the anti-cavity effects of fluoride.
Abstract:
Provided herein are oral care compositions comprising antifreeze proteins (AFPs) useful in methods of repairing or inhibiting dental erosion, promoting dental remineralization, and/or enhancing the anti-cavity effects of fluoride.
Abstract:
The invention relates to expandable or expanded thermoplastic polymer particles provided with a coating containing hydrophobin, especially proteins of general structural formula (I): X n -C 1 -X 1-50 -C 2 -X 0-5 -C 3 -X 1-100 -C 4 -X 1-100 -C 5 -X 1-50 -C 6 -X 0-5 -C 7 -X 1-50 -C 8 -X m wherein X represents each of the 20 naturally occurring amino acids, n and m represent numbers between 0 and 500, and C represents cysteine. The invention also relates to the use of said particles as an antistatic agent.
Abstract:
Method for the production of dry, free-flowing, stable hydrophobin preparations by spraying and drying of aqueous hydrophobin solutions in a spray device, optionally containing additives.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of a hydrophobin or a derivative thereof as an antifoaming agent in additive compositions or in fuels, to a method for defoaming fuels, to an additive and fuel composition containing a hydrophobin or derivative thereof and at least one additional fuel additive, and to a method for producing a fuel composition.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cosmetic composition for treating materials containing keratin, mucous membranes and teeth, said composition containing at least one hydrophobin polypeptide sequence (i) Xn-C1-X1-50-C2-X0-5-C3-Xp-C4-X1-100-C5-X1-50-C6-X0-5-C7-X1-50-C8-Xm (I).
Abstract:
The invention relates to polypeptides of general structural formula (I) Xn-C1-X1-50-C2-X0-5-C3-XP-C4-X1-100-C5-X1-50-C6-X0-5-C7-X1-50-C8-Xm, to their production and use thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to copolymers which are formed from specific amounts of (a) ethylene and (b) monomer(s) selected from propylheptylacrylate and propylheptyl-methacrylate, and optionally at least one further monomer. Said copolymers are useful as oil soluble additives for cosmetic formulations and especially oil depositioning enhancers for rinse-off formulations.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of hydrophobin as a spreading agent, in particular in cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions. The invention further relates to compositions for treating surfaces, in particular cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions for topical use, that contain hydrophobin as a spreading agent.
