Liquid compositions containing one or more anionic surfactants in combination with one or more polydiallyl dialkyl ammonium compounds or derivatives or copolymers thereof, these compositions being suitable for the production of liquid laundry detergents, preferably for dye-transfer-inhibiting liquid color-protecting detergents.

Liquid detergent comprising anionic and nonionic surfactant mixtures

A method for treating fibers, yarns or textiles to improve the sensory effect for a user or weaver of a fabric article. The method treats the fiber, yarns or textiles with an emulsion containing 15-30% by weight of a mixture of waxes having melting points in the range of 35&#xb0; C. to 60&#xb0; C. including a lipophilic wax matrix; 10%-20% by weight of emulsifier which are at least one of alkyl or alkenyl oligoglycosides or alkyl ether sulfates, 1%-10% by weight of a crystal regulator which can be partial esters of Cfatty acids with at least one of glycerol, polyglycerol and sorbitan. The mean particle size of the wax crystals is not greater than 6 &#x3bc;m. The emulsion includes water and auxiliaries and additives.

Textile finishing agents for imparting a sensory effect during use

Decorative cosmetic preparations that contain water-soluble &#x3b2;-(1,3) glucans, which have intact &#x3b2;-(1,3) side-chains and are free from repetitive &#x3b2;-(1,6) linkages and a method of producing the same are disclosed.

Decorative cosmetic preparations

A deodorizing composition containing an ingredient selected from the group consisting of a nanoscale chitosan having a particle diameter of from about 1 to 300 nm, a nanoscale chitosan derivative having a particle diameter of from about 1 to 300 nm, and mixtures thereof.

Deodorizing preparations containing nanosacle chitosans and/or chitosan derivatives

The invention relates to the use of water soluble &#x3b2;-(1,3) glucans, which are essentially free from (1,6) links as active ingredients agents for producing therapeutic skin treatment agents. Said products strengthen the skin's immune system, counteract the formation of wrinkles and can be used to treat psoriasis and eczemic conditions.

Use of water-soluble &#x3b2;-(1,3) glucans as agents for producing therapeutic skin treatment agents

The invention relates to cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical preparations containing (a) water soluble &bgr;-(1,3) glucans that are substantially devoid of &bgr;-(1,6) links, and (b) deoxyribonucleic acids and their breakdown and degradation products.

Cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical preparations

The use of phase inversion temperature emulsions containing a non-aqueous phase of (a) one or more C fatty acid alkyl esters, (b) one or more C fatty alcohols, (c) one or more C alcohol polyglycol ethers, and (d) one or more C fatty acid partial glycerides, and an aqueous phase; as softening formulations for substrates such as papers, nonwovens, tissues and cloths is described.

PIT emulsions, methods of softening paper using the same, and paper substrates treated therewith

The invention relates to the use of surfactant mixtures, comprising (a) anionic and/or nonionic surfactants and (b) water soluble &bgr;-(1,3) glucans, which are substantially free of &bgr;-(1,6) links. Said mixtures are used to produce oral hygiene and dental hygiene products in particulars, toothpastes. The preparations are characterized in that the mucous membranes in the mouth have a particularly high degree of tolerability with regard thereto, by exhibiting exceptional foaming properties and a stable distribution of the abrasive substances.

Use of surfactant mixtures

A process for treating human skin by inhibiting serine protease formation involving contacting the skin with a composition containing a sterol sulfate.

Use of sterolsulfates as active substances for producing means to inhibit serin proteases

The invention relates to sun-protection agents containing (a) water soluble &bgr;-(1,3) glucans that are substantially devoid of &bgr;-(1,6) links, and (b) UV sun-protection factors.

Sun protection agents

The invention relates to cosmetic hair care preparations containing: (a) water soluble &bgr;-(1,3) glucans which are substantially devoid of &bgr;-(1,6) links, and (b) polymers. The addition of the special glucans to the polymers reduces the formation of stress-cracking in the polymer films when the preparation is absorbed by the hair.

Cosmetic hair care preparations

The invention relates to novel deodorizing preparations that have an effect that is enhanced by synergy and that contain (a) water-soluble &bgr;-(1,3)-glucans that are substantially free from &bgr;-(1,6) links, (b) aluminum chlorohydrate, (c) esterase inhibitors and/or (d) bactericidal or bacteriostatic active substances.

Deodorizing preparations

A composition for treating acneiform eruption containing: (a) a chitosan having a molecular weight ranging from about 500,000 to about 5,000,000 g/mole and a degree of deacylation greater than 80%; (b) an acid-form active ingredient for treating acne; and (c) water.

Chitosan formulation with azelaic acid and other actives for the treatment of acne

A hair cosmetic formulation containing a cationic bipolymer and a polyvinylpyrrolidone/viny acetate copolymer in a weight ratio from 1:10 to 1:50.
