Title: HAIR DYE STABILIZER

Applicant/Assignee: TAKASAGO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Application No.: 12/440624   Filing Date: 10/Jul/2007

Abstract:It is to provide a hair dye stabilizer capable of stably storing a readily oxidizable compound in a hair dye, especially an oxidizing dye intermediate or a coupler and effective for remarkably improving the offensive odor problem. Furthermore, it isto provide a hair dye stabilizer giving improvement in damage on the hair, hardly irritating the skin, and free from adverse effects on the dyeing ability of the hair dye. As the active component constituting the hair dye stabilizer, a compound which is a mercapto-hydrocarbon compound and/or a thiol alcohol compound and does not contain a functional group reactive with a dye intermediate or a coupler is used. A readily oxidizable compound and the like in a hair dye can be stably stored by the use of an extremely small amount of the stabilizer.

Title: USE OF EQUOL FOR TREATING SKIN DISEASES

Applicant/Assignee:

Application No.: 12/533169   Filing Date: 31/Jul/2009

Abstract:Equol (7-hydroxy-3(4'hydroxyphenyl)-chroman), the major metabolite of the phytoestrogen daidzein, specifically binds and blocks the hormonal action of 5[alpha]-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in vitro and in vivo. Equol can bind circulating free DHT and sequester it from the androgen receptor, thus altering growth and physiological hormone responses that are regulated by androgens. These data suggest a novel model to explain equol's biological properties. The significance of equol's ability to specifically bind and sequester DHT from the androgen receptor have important ramifications in health and disease and may indicate a broad and important usage for equol in the treatment and prevention of androgen-mediated pathologies of skin and hair. Thus, equol can specifically bind DHT and prevent DHT's biological actions in physiological and pathophysiological processes affecting skin and hair.

Title: HAIR DYEING OR BLEACHING METHOD

Applicant/Assignee: KAO CORPORATION

Application No.: 12/532934   Filing Date: 25/Apr/2008

Abstract:The present invention is a method for hair dyeing or bleaching by discharging in a foam from a squeeze container 6 a mixed solution of a first agent A1 and a second agent A2 of a two-part hair dye or bleach composition to apply on the hair. In the present invention, the squeeze container which includes a container body 4 and a squeeze foamer 5 is used as the squeeze container 6. At least one of the first agent A1 or the second agent A2 contains a foaming agent. The mixed solution of the first and second agents has a viscosity (25 DEG C.) of from 1 mPas to 100 mPas. The first agent A1 and the second agent A2 are mixed in the container body 4 so as not to produce a foam. Squeezing is carried out with the squeeze container 6 stood upright so that the mixed solution A3 does not reach an air induct path 12 of the squeeze foamer 5. As a result, the mixed solution of the first and second agents of the two-part hair dye or bleach composition can be stably discharged in a fine foam using a squeeze container.

Application No.: 12/632831   Filing Date: 08/Dec/2009

Abstract:Short single chain peptides having affinity for a target surface often lack the binding durability required for certain commercial applications. One way to improve durability is to promote multivalent binding by linking together binding sequences using peptide linkers. However, the resulting single chain binding peptides often suffer from linker entropy. It has been discovered that the use of rigid peptide linkers when linking together multiple binding sequences enhances the binding affinity of the resulting single chain peptide.

Abstract:An apparatus for modifying a keratinous surface having an applicator, a first modification agent

The CPU then calculates the variance between the reading and the baseline value. When that variance exceeds a predetermined threshold the CPU sends a signal to the applicator which is activated to apply a portion of the first modification composition to the same portion of the keratinous surface that had the reading with a variance above the threshold value.

Abstract:An apparatus for modifying a keratinous surface that has a rotatable applicator that is in fluid communication with a first modification composition. The apparatus also has a sensor and a CPU. The sensor is positioned forward of the applicator head such that as the head rolls across the keratinous surface the sensor reads the portion of the keratinous surface in front of the rolling head. The sensor readings are transmitted to the CPU, the CPU analyzes the sensor readings of the keratinous surface, and the CPU sends a signal to the applicator head to treat or not to treat the analyzed surface. When the CPU sends a signal to the applicator to treat the surface, a small portion of the first modification composition is applied to the head such that when the head rolls over the keratinous surface the first modification composition contacts the area of the keratinous surface that needs treatment.
