Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising an antibacterial agent and a dissolvable film comprising a pigment which provide a color change signal after a sufficient period of brushing, wherein the dentifrice base has water activity less than 0.78 and comprises anionic polymer in free or salt form 10-25% by weight of the dentifrice base, and anionic surfactant less than 3% by weight; together with methods of making and using the compositions.
Abstract:
The invention encompasses liquid cleaning compositions, for example, dish washing liquids, and methods of their manufacture and use, which possess enhanced cleaning ability. The cleaning compositions of the invention include acidic light duty liquid cleaning compositions with low toxicity and antibacterial efficacy on surfaces, for example, hard surfaces.
Abstract:
A soluble zinc polyphosphate complex made by combining ingredients which include an inorganic zinc salt and a plurality of long chain polyphosphates having 6 or more phosphate polymer units, the relative amount of inorganic zinc salt and long chain polyphosphates providing a phosphorus to zinc mole ratio of at least 6:1. Further provided is a method of making this soluble zinc polyphosphate.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are dentifrices comprising a zinc amino acid complex together with soluble phosphate salts. Methods of making and using the dentifrices are also provided.
Abstract:
Described herein are aqueous oral compositions comprising a cationic steroidal compound and a quaternary ammonium compound; and methods of making and using the same.
Abstract:
Described herein are dentifrices comprising a first formulation and a second formulation, wherein the formulations are coaxially extruded, so that the first formulation enrobes the second formulation, wherein the first formulation is opaque and wherein the second formulation comprises dissolvable film fragments, together with methods of making and using the same and containers for providing the same.
Abstract:
Oral care compositions and methods are described in which the composition includes a chalcone color change component, which may be phenyl-3-methoxy-4-hydroxystyryl ketone. The color change component is induced to change colors by addition of saliva and/or by a change in pH of the composition. The composition and methods provide benefits including providing visual cues to the user.
Abstract:
Disclosed are oral care compositions and the use of such oral care compositions for treating conditions caused by biofilm formation. Also disclosed are methods for inhibiting biofilm formation and/or degrading biofilm. The oral care composition includes a sesquiterpenoid and an antimicrobial agent, in which the sesquiterpenoid and the antimicrobial agent are present in an amount effective to inhibit and/or degrade a biofilm in the oral cavity.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a cleaning composition that contains at least two surfactants selected from a cationic surfactant, a nonionic surfactants, a linear alkyl benzene sulfonate salt, a sulfated alcohol ethoxylate, an amine oxide, and an amphoteric surfactant; and a fragrance compound. The cleaning composition has a Cup test value of at least about 70% of the standard reference formula and a QFR value of at least about 20%. Also disclosed are related methods of fragrance delivery including application and use of the composition.
