Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new polypeptide and composition having high affinity to keratin or keratin-containing substances, for example, skin, fingernail or hair and/or mucosa and/or teeth.SOLUTION: A composition contains at least one kind of the hydrophobin polypeptide sequence (i) shown below. X-C-X-C-X-C-X-C-X-C-X-C-X-C-X-C-X(I) [In the formula, X may be any of 20 natural amino acids, the variable of X represents the number of amino acid, variable n and m are numbers in the range of 0 to 500, C is cysteine, alanine, serine, glycine, methionine or threonine, and at least four of the residues designated by C are cysteine.]
Abstract:
Non-therapeutic use, of beta-(1,3)-beta-(1,4) glucan with a mean molecular weight of from 5.000 to 150.000 Da, preferably 13.000 to 60.000 Da, particularly 20.000 to 0.000 Da, for the increase of synthesis of collagen.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of hydrophobin for non-permanent dyeing of keratin and keratin-containing materials, in particular of hair, and a corresponding method for non-permanent dyeing of keratin and keratin-containing materials, in particular of hair. The invention further relates to means of non-permanent dyeing of keratin and keratin-containing materials, in particular, hair, which contain hydrophobin.
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.
