Title: Derivatives of arabinogalactan and compositions including the same

Applicant: LAREX INC (US)

Application No.: US2000-0727035 Applic. Date: 2000-11-30

Abstract: Derivatized Arabinogalactan can be utilized in a variety of compositions to impart functionality without imparting negative rheological affects when the amount of the derivatized Arabinogalactan is increased in the composition. This is particularly important in the personal care industry, where it is desirable to have the flexibility to adjust the amount of derivatized Arabinogalactan depending upon the results it is desired to deliver to the user without negatively impacting the overall viscosity of the personal care composition.

Abstract: Leave-in hair cosmetic compositions for enhancing hair volume comprise fluid-encapsulated, flexible microspheres exhibiting a mean particle size of less than about 300 mum in diameter, a water-soluble or water-swellable polymer, and an aqueous carrier such that the combination of the polymer and the microspheres results in a solid continuous or semi-continuous film network. Methods for enhancing hair volume, and more particularly for enhancing hair volume, comprise applying leave-in aqueous cosmetic compositions which contain spherical, flexible, fluid-encapsulated particles of less than about 300 mum in diameter, a water-soluble or water-swellable polymer and an aqueous carrier. The compositions provide improved hair volume, body, bounce, fullness, springiness, and texture in addition to providing good hair conditioning and styling benefits.

Title: B complex vitamin compositions that protect against cellular damage caused by ultraviolet light

Application No.: US2001-0900064 Applic. Date: 2001-07-06

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the use of vitamin B12 (cobalamin or cyanocobalamin) alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents, including specifically other vitamins such as vitamin B9 (folic acid or folate) and vitamin B3 (niacin or niacinamide), or any chemical derivative of these vitamins and their salts, as a filter to protect cells against the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) light. The invention is, in one aspect, a method of reducing the rate of UV damage to cells exposed to a UV light source, by treating the celis with the vitamin composition, either alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents.; Other aspects of the invention are compositions comprising effective amounts of vitamin B12 alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents including vitamin B9 and vitamin B3 and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier, that are useful in protecting cells, particularly skin cells, against the burning, genotoxic (mutagenic and carcinogenic), immunosuppressive and photoaging effects of UV light, especially sunlight. The invention has application as a UV light filter in oral preparations including tablets and drinks, topical creams, lotions, sprays, wipes and cosmetics.; The invention also has application as a medicinal treatment for dermatological conditions caused by exposure to sunlight, such as actinic keratoses, photodermatitis, photo-induced (discoid) lupus erythematosus and the photosensitizing effects of a variety of drugs used commonly in clinical practice (e.g. certain antihistamines, ACE inhibitors, and antibiotics such as tetracycline).

Abstract: A therapeutic, cosmetic or cosmeceutic composition for topical application, capable of stabilizing an active ingredient and delivering the active ingredient, comprising a plurality of microcapsules having a core-shell structure. The microcapsules have a diameter of approximately 0.1 to 100 micron. The core of each microcapsule includes at least one active ingredient and is encapsulated within a microcapsular shell. The shell is comprised of at least one inorganic polymer obtained by a sol-gel process, and the shell protects the active ingredient before topical application and is designed to release the active ingredient from the microcapsules following application. The composition is useful in encapsulating active ingredients, such as benzoyl peroxide, that are unstable in other formulation, or are irritating to the skin.

Abstract: Bioadhesive nanoparticulate compositions, comprising active agent particles and one or more cationic surface stabilizers, are described. The cationic surface stabilizers prevent aggregation of the nanoparticles and increase bioadhesion of the nanoparticles to biological substrates, such as an insect, teeth, bone, nails, chitin, feathers, scales, mucous, skin, hair, plant tissue, etc. The particles may consist of pharmacologically active compounds (e.g., drug compounds for human or veterinary use), agricultural chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, and the like), cosmetic agents, consumer products (coloring agents, flavors, or fragrances), or other materials which function by interacting with biological substrates. In addition, the invention relates to methods of preparing and using such bioadhesive nanoparticulate compositions.

Application No.: US2002-0132352 Applic. Date: 2002-04- 25

Abstract: A process is described for making 1,4-diamino-2-methoxymethylbenzene of formula (I), or a physiologically compatible salt of 1,4-diamino-2-methoxy-methylbenzene, of formula (I): wherein n is a number from 0 to 2 and HX represents an inorganic or organic acid. The process includes reacting 2-methoxymethyl-4-nitrophenol with a halogenacetamide to form 2-(2-methoxymethyl-4- nitrophenoxy)acetamide; rearranging the 2-(2-methoxymethyl-4-nitrophenoxy)acetamide to form 2- methoxymethyl-4-nitroaniline and then catalytically hydrogenating the 2-methoxymethyl-4-nitroaniline and, when n=1 or 2, subsequently reacting with the inorganic or organic acid, to form the 1,4-diamino- 2-methoxymethylbenzene of formula (I), or the salt if n=1 or 2. Compositions and methods of dyeing hair containing the 1,4-diamino-2-methoxymethylbenzene or its salt are also described.

Title: New Method for making a water-in-oil emulsion

Application No.: US2001-0045211 Applic. Date: 2001-10- 23

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel water-in-oil compositions which exhibit unexpected storage stability and other characteristics in a high water content composition. The present compositions comprise a combination of dibehenyl fumarate, PEG 1500 dihydroxystearate and monoethanolamine stearamide (also, stearic monoethanolamide) in combination with an oil and water soluble, and optionally, numerous other ingredients or components. The compositions may be used as an emulsifier mixture, or as emulsions for formulating numerous compositions, and in particular, pharmaceutical or personal care products such as cosmetics and dermatological agents. The compositions according to the present invention are particularly useful as additives in dermatological products, including cosmetic compositions.; The compositions exhibit a number of favorable characteristics which are particularly surprising, including one or more of enhanced storage stability, high water content (in certain cases, more than 50% up to about 90% by weight water), high inversion temperature, favorable feel (in certain cases, the compositions which actually exhibit a cooling sensation on the skin), an elegant appearance (shiny and/or smooth) and an ability to be formulated into compositions which are useful for unusual applications.

The optically-activated particles include a plurality of substrate particles selected from the group consisting of nylons, acrylics, polyesters, other plastic polymers, natural materials, regenerated cellulose, metals and minerals; an optical brightener chemically bonded to each of the plurality of substrate particles to form integral units in the form of optically-activated particles for diffusing light to reduce the visual perception of skin imperfections, including cellulite, shadows, skin discolorations, and wrinkles; and each of the optically-activated particles are encapsulated with a UV transparent coating to increase the diffusion light to further reduce the visual perception of the skin imperfections. The encapsulated optically-activated particles are able to absorb ultraviolet radiation and emit visible light; and the encapsulated optically-activated particles are able to both scatter and absorb light in a diffuse manner in order to reduce the visual perception of skin imperfections, including cellulite, wrinkles, shadows, and skin discolorations, when the optically-activated particles are applied to the skin surface. The encapsulated optically-activated particles are used in the making of cosmetic preparations such as skin lotions, creams, shampoos, body and skin rinses, bath gels, soaps, hair conditioners, color conditioners and rinses, hair color solutions, foundation powders (compressed or loose), tooth pastes, oral rinses, and any acceptable cosmetic vehicle or medium.
