Abstract:
Provided are compositions, e.g., oral and personal care products, comprising (i) a tetrabasic zinc-amino acid or trialkyl glycine-halide complex, and (ii) cysteine in free or in orally or cosmetically acceptable salt form, together with methods of making and using the same.
Abstract:
Provided are compositions, e.g., oral and personal care products, comprising (i) a zinc amino acid halide complex, and (ii) cysteine in free or in orally or cosmetically acceptable salt form, together with methods of making and using the same.
Abstract:
A personal care composition for application to the skin or hair comprising a cosmetically acceptable carrier and zinc X halide precursors wherein the precursors are a zinc ion source, an X source, and a halide source, wherein the halide source can be part of the zinc ion source, the X source, or a halogen acid, wherein the precursors can complex into the zinc X halide when the composition is applied to the skin or hair, wherein X is an amino acid or trimethylglycine. Methods of making and using the compositions are also provided. When the precursors complex into a zinc X halide, the complex can be used to deliver zinc salts to block perspiration and provide antibacterial effects.
Abstract:
A method of making the antiperspirant active compositions having SEC chromatogram exhibiting high SEC peak 4 intensity, which are described in PCT/US2007/087145 (Published as WO2009/075678) and PCT/US2008/086556 (Published as WO2009/076591). The method uses a combination of sodium hydroxide with a source of calcium ions.
Abstract:
A process for preparing oxo-hexameric zirconium-octaamino acid, such as glycine, salt comprising: mixing zirconium (Zr): amino acid : and mineral acid, in a molar ratio of 1 : about 1 to about 15: about 1.5 to about 3 to form a mixture; optionally, filtering the mixture; and optionally, drying the mixture. An oxo-hexameric zirconium-octaamino acid salt of the molecular formula: oxo- [Zr 6 Amino Acid 8 ]•X y • nH 2 O, wherein Zr is zirconium, X is an anion of a mineral acid, and n and y are numerical values from 0 to 20. A method of making an antiperspirant active zirconium-aluminum-amino acid compound comprising mixing an oxo- hexameric zirconium-octaamino acid salt with aluminum chlorohydrex and/or aluminum chloride, and drying the mixture. The smallest oxo-hexameric zirconium-octaamino acid salt of this invention provides stability, efficacy, and shelf life of zirconium-amino acid species for formulations in antiperspirant and/or deodorant compositions.
Abstract:
This invention relates to compositions, including oral care compositions, comprising naringin-loaded metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), such as naringin-loaded MIL-101(Fe), as well as methods of using and of making these compositions.
Abstract:
Methods for measuring pH of gel, paste, colloid, and aqueous solutions, such as a consumer product, a food product, a pet food product, a beverage product, a pharmaceutical product, and/or a medical product, are provided. The method may include preparing a calibration curve of a chemical species including or having an acid dissociation constant. Preparing the calibration curve may include plotting a chemical shift of the chemical species relative to pH. The method may also include determining a chemical shift of a gel, paste, and colloid, aqueous solutions, such as a consumer product, a food product, a pet food product, a beverage product, a pharmaceutical product, and/or a medical product, including the chemical species. The method may further include determining the pH of the gel, paste, colloid, and aqueous solutions, such as a consumer product, a food product, a pet food product, a beverage product, a pharmaceutical product, and/or a medical product, with the chemical shift of the product and the calibration curve.
