Abstract
Inhibitors of esterase-producing micro-organisms, primarily for use in dermatology and cosmetics and with particular application to personal deodorants and to anti-fungal agents and other preparations for the treatment of acne, dandruff and tinea pedis. The active ingredient of the inhibitor comprises an aromatic acid ester of a phenol or of an aromatic alcohol, the phenol or aromatic alcohol being sufficiently water-soluble to impart an anti-microbial action and the aromatic acid being sufficiently water-soluble to impart an anti-microbial action and/or to lower the pH of liquid body-secretions to a level which at least inhibits the growth of micro-organisms in the liquid body-secretions.
