Embodiments are directed to a stable composition comprising stabilized hydrogen peroxide and 2-propanol and applicators configured to store, dispense, and apply such stable compositions. Such compositions may be used to treat skin conditions such as warts, condyloma accuminatum, molluscum contagiosum, acrochordons, seborrheic keratosis, or a combination thereof. Some embodiments also describe take home compositions, in office compositions, over-the-counter compositions, and kits for the use of such compositions.

The present invention provides a sheet-type beauty pack having a convenient use and expected to provide moisture and nutrients to the skin of the face and the like, has a sufficient far infrared ray effect due to a natural material containing minerals, removes impurities, and has a wrinkle alleviation effect due to skin lifting, by applying a beauty pack, which uses a cosmetic material of a natural material containing minerals, in a paste state to a sheet such as nonwoven fabric. The sheet-type beauty pack comprises: a first release paper; a nonwoven fabric of which one surface is laminated with the first release paper and of which the other surface is coated with a cosmetic material in the paste state; and a second release paper laminated on the other surface, coated with the cosmetic material, of the nonwoven fabric.

Methods and compositions related to the selective, specific disruption of multiple ligand-receptor signaling interactions, such as ligand-receptor interactions implicated in disease, are disclosed. These interactions may involve multiple cytokines in a single receptor family or multiple ligand receptor interactions from at least two distinct ligand-receptor families. The compositions may comprise polypeptides having composite sequences that comprise sequence fragments of two or more ligand binding sites. The methods and compositions may involve sequence fragments of two or more ligand binding sites that are arranged to conserve the secondary structure of each of the ligands from which the sequence fragments were taken.

The invention relates to a method for the stabilization of a polysaccharide (hyaluronic acid) with a biomolecule—amino acid—through crosslinking, to generate a bionic hydrogel based on physiological building blocks for applications in regenerative medicine. The designed biosimilar hydrogel is intended to be used in regenerative medicine for the purpose of regenerate, rejuvenate and/or restore the structure or function of impaired or damaged tissues, and to promote healing. The manufacture method is composed of a single step that includes mixing L-lysine and hyaluronic acid sodium salt in an aqueous saline solution with either EDC/NHS as coupling agent.

The invention relates to a botulinum neurotoxin-encoding nucleic acid for therapeutic use. The invention further relates to the transfection of skeletal muscle cells and smooth muscle cells and the glands of the skin, and of other skin cells with botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT)-encoding nucleic acids (RNA or DNA) with or without the use of a secretory signal, for therapeutic and/or cosmetic purposes.

Methods of forming cross-linked polysaccharides are disclosed in which one or more polysaccharides are dissolved in solution, gelled, modified to have a desired concentration, and subsequently irradiated. The irradiation of the gel crosslinks the polysaccharide(s) present. The disclosed techniques may be applied to various polysaccharides, including but not limited to agarose and/or hyaluronic acid.
