A mineralization agent, including, by weight: 5-50% of a film-forming protein, 5-40% of an amelogenin peptide, 5-30% of a water-soluble phosphate, 4-20% of a tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine hydrochloride, and 1-10% of a pH regulator. The film-forming protein is selected from the group consisting of lysozyme, bovine serum protein, insulin, α-lactalbumin, or a mixture thereof.

The invention relates to a bracelet or strap, in particular a watch band, comprising at least one organic material based portion intended to be placed in contact with the user's skin, said organic material containing at least one functional agent, such as an antibacterial agent. According to the invention, said organic material also contains a cosmetic agent for the skin, arranged to be able to be in contact with the user's skin when the bracelet is worn.

The invention also concerns methods for manufacturing such a bracelet or strap.

Aspects of the present invention relate to an improved antimicrobial and/or anti-viral composition comprising an antimicrobial and/or anti viral mixture consisting of: H.sub.2O.sub.2 at a final concentration of between 3-7% v/v, and a poloxamer at a concentration of 0.1-10% w/v. The poloxamer is in a composite hydrogel formulation. The composition disclosed herein is antimicrobial and/or anti-viral and is particularly useful for cleaning, sterilizing, disinfecting, sanitizing, decontaminating and/or debriding biological surfaces and surfaces of biomaterials, such as when provided in a hand sanitizer, mouth wash, nasal rinse and/or for wound care and/or chronic ulcer care and use for dental prophylaxis and peri-implant health maintenance.

Anti-aging cosmetic compositions prepared from conditioned medium of adipose-derived stem cells are provided. The cosmetic compositions are preferably ready-to-mix compositions, comprising two separate components: a protein component in a dried form that serves as the cosmetically active ingredient of the product, comprising a protein fraction purified from an adipose-derived stem cell conditioned medium; and a reconstitution component, for reconstituting the lyophilized protein component just before application to the skin.

Silk performance apparel and methods of preparing the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, silk performance apparel includes textiles, fabrics, consumer products, and other materials that are coated with aqueous solutions of pure silk fibroin-based protein fragments. In some embodiments, coated apparel products exhibit surprisingly improved moisture management properties and increased resistance to microbial growth.
