Abstract:
The present invention provides highly impact-resistant, water-soluble or water dispersible, low-dust granules comprising an active ingredient and methods for obtaining the same.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to coated dehydrated microorganisms comprising a dehydrated microorganism surrounded by at least one coating, said coating comprising by dry weight at least 25% of hygroscopic salt(s) and wherein the pH of the coating is compatible with viability of the coated dehydrated microorganism. The coating can be partially crystalline, the salt(s) in the coating having preferably a crystallinity degree of up to 60% once applied onto the dehydrated microorganism. The present invention also relates to liquid coating compositions, methods for coating and protecting a dehydrated microorganism. Finally, the present invention relates to a method for the preparation of food products, feed products, consumer healthcare products or agri-products as well as to a food product, feed product, a consumer healthcare product or an agri-product containing such coated dehydrated microorgansims.
Abstract:
Systems are provided for the controlled release delivery of active agents through the use of repeat sequence protein polymers. The systems may exist as matrices, gels, hydrogels, films, emulsions or microparticles and are particularly useful for incorporating active agents into personal care product compositions.

Abstract:
A method of providing an active agent topically to the skin is provided and includes providing a topical preparation having an internal phase and an external phase, wherein the internal phase is dispersed within the external phase. The internal phase includes at least one hydrophilic carrier, at least one hydrophilic component, and at least one active agent, and the external phase comprises a silicone matrix. The topical preparation is placed in contact with the skin of a patient such that the active agent is released from the silicone matrix topically onto the skin of the patient.
