An aptamer composition is disclosed which has one or more oligonucleotides that include at least one of deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides, derivatives of deoxyribonucleotides, derivatives of ribonucleotides, or mixtures thereof. The aptamer composition has a binding affinity for one or more cellular membrane glycoproteins selected from the group consisting of: intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family members, and cadherin-related family member 3 (CDHR3), preferably intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), and is configured to reduce the binding of one or more human rhinoviruses to the intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1).

Aptamers for personal health care applications

Nucleic acid aptamers having a high binding affinity and specificity for malodorous molecules and the use of such aptamers to reduce the intensity of the undesirable smells in personal care compositions.

Aptamers for odor control applications

The present invention is directed to an aptamer composition comprising at least one oligonucleotide consisting of: deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides, derivatives of deoxyribonucleotides, derivatives of ribonucleotides, and mixtures thereof; wherein said aptamer composition has a binding affinity for one or more fungi species from the genus

Aptamers for personal care applications

A method of cleaning a surface having disposed thereon a soil comprising fatty acid, the method comprising contacting the soil with a consumer product composition comprising a surfactant and a soil transforming enzyme selected from the group consisting of hydroperoxy fatty acid producing enzymes, hydroperoxy fatty acid converting enzymes, multi-domain enzymes, hydroxy fatty acid producing enzymes, and mixtures thereof. The method further comprises converting the fatty acid of the soil into an active fatty acid derivative material selected from the group consisting of hydroperoxy fatty acids, hydroperoxy fatty acid derivatives, hydroxy fatty acids, and mixtures thereof. Consumer product compositions are also provided.

Method and consumer product composition having enzymes for cleaning a surface having soil comprising fatty acid

Hydroxypropionic acid, hydroxypropionic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof are dehydrated using a catalyst and a method to produce bio-acrylic acid, acrylic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof. A method to produce the dehydration catalyst is also provided.

Catalysts for the dehydration of hydroxypropionic acid and its derivatives

A liquid detergent composition, preferably a liquid manual dishwashing detergent composition, comprising one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid producing enzymes selected from the group consisting of: arachidonate lipoxygenases, alpha-dioxygenases, and mixtures thereof, preferably alpha-dioxygenases, a surfactant system and a liquid carrier (i.e., water). Methods of washing comprising the liquid detergent composition are also provided.

Detergent composition

Methods for making acrylic acid, acrylic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof by contacting a stream containing hydroxypropionic acid, hydroxypropionic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof with either an active catalyst containing an amorphous and partially-dehydrated phosphate salt or a precursor catalyst containing a crystalline phosphate salt in a reactor with a low corrosion rate are provided.

Method of making acrylic acid from hydroxypropionic acid

Consumer product compositions comprise a surfactant and a nucleic acid aptamer. The nucleic acid aptamer comprises at least one oligonucleotide comprising: deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides, derivatives of deoxyribonucleotides, derivatives of ribonucleotides, or mixtures thereof. The nucleic acid aptamer has a binding affinity for an epitope of a surface being treated with the consumer product composition.

Aptamers for consumer product compositions

The present invention is directed to a cleaning composition including one or more Class III or Class IV BslA (Biofilm surface layer A) proteins and a surfactant system including one or more anionic surfactants and one or more co-surfactants, in a weight of ratio of less than 9:1. Methods of making and using such compositions are also provided.

Cleaning composition

Bio-based glacial acrylic acid, produced from hydroxypropionic acid, hydroxypropionic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof and having impurities of hydroxypropionic acid, hydroxypropionic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof, is polymerized to poly(acrylic acid) or superabsorbent polymer using the same processes as petroleum-derived glacial acrylic acid.

Poly(acrylic acid) from bio-based acrylic acid and its derivatives

Processes for the catalytic dehydration of hydroxypropionic acid, hydroxypropionic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof to acrylic acid, acrylic acid derivatives, or mixtures thereof with high yield and selectivity and without significant conversion to undesired side products, such as, acetaldehyde, propanoic acid, and acetic acid, are provided. The processes can be carried out either in a gas phase or in a liquid phase.
