A biofilm targeting microcapsule, suitable for deposition onto a biofilm from an aqueous dispersion, comprising a solid microparticle with average diameter from 1 to 100 micron, the microparticle carrying a non-volatile functional material to be delivered to the biofilm after the microparticle has been deposited onto the biofilm, characterised in that the microparticle has attached to its outer surface from 0.5 to 5 wt %, based on the microparticle weight, of nonionic polysaccharide polymer.

Biofilm targeting microcapsule carrying a non-volatile functional material

The invention provides a use of a particle to absorb and retain odiferous compounds, wherein the particle comprises: &#x2014;(a) a solid core comprising a first hydrophobic polymer, and (b) a shell comprising a second hydrophobic polymer wherein the Tg of the first hydrophobic polymer is lower than the Tg of the second hydrophobic polymer; wherein the particles have a mean particle size of less than 1 micron, preferably from 0.1 to 0.3 microns, and wherein the odiferous compound is a malodor compound.

Use of a benefit delivery particle for malodour benefit

Stabilized cationic ammonium compounds are described. The compounds are stabilized with metal chelators that impede the generation of nitrogen comprising groups from the cationic ammonium compounds.

Stabilized cationic ammonium compounds for topical compositions

Stabilized cationic ammonium compounds and compositions comprising the same

The present invention concerns deodorant products based on a synergistically active antimicrobial mixture of picolinic acid and a peroxyl species or equivalent source thereof. Also described is the cosmetic use of such products to treat malodour on the human body.

Antimicrobial deodorant compositions

An oral composition comprising picolinic acid and a peroxyl species or equivalent source thereof, characterised in that the molar ratio of picolinic acid to peroxyl species or equivalent source thereof is from 1:30 to 100:1.

Oral composition

Multiple component bleaching compositions

The invention provides a bleaching composition of pH 8-14 which comprises an oxygen transfer agent and hypochlorite or a source thereof and a method for bleaching a stained substrate which comprises the step of treating the substrate with a bleaching composition of pH 8-14 which bleaching composition comprises an oxygen transfer agent and hypochlorite or a source thereof. Particularly preferred oxygen transfer agents are imine quaternary ammonium salts such as N-methyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolinium salts. Where these salts are used, suitable counter-ions include halides, sulphate, methosulphate, sulphonate, p-toluene sulphonate and phosphate. Oxygen transfer agents which comprise a quaternary nitrogen atom are preferred. In the alternative, the oxygen transfer agent can be a sulphonimine.
