The present invention discloses a shaving razor which comprises a razor head, a razor head cartridge having a plurality of razor blades mounted on a razor blade platform and a rear edge portion and a front edge portion facing opposite to each other and a razor handle having a curved profile which is positioned upwards, deviating away from razor body. The razor handle is oriented at any desired angle as required by a user relative to contact surface of the razor head, thereby enabling the user to grab the razor handle with fingers resting close to rear surface of the razor head. The handle has an overall curved profile that is oriented upward. The handle is oriented preferably at a 80° angle relative to the anatomy-contacting surface of the head, the range is 50° to 150°, preferably 60° to 105°, and more preferably 70° to 95°.

A method for producing a fermentate including the steps of obtaining a fruit or vegetable extract, treating the extract with a hydrolytic enzyme, mixing the extract with a fermenting microorganism, water, and a growth media to produce a liquid composition; and incubating the liquid composition at a controlled temperature and a controlled pH to produce a fermentate. A method for killing or inhibiting the growth of a contaminating microorganism on or within a food product, and a food product including a fermentate having a cellular mass component from a fermenting microorganism, a fermented fruit or vegetable extract and a hydrolytic enzyme are disclosed. A fermentate produced by any one of the methods described is contemplated. The fermentate may be a concentrated liquid or a dry powder and has the ability to inhibit the growth of a contaminating microorganism by 100% when diluted to less than 5% (w/v).

To improve the fact that the main components of conventional deodorizing and antimicrobial agents are existing components, the effect and efficacy of which are known to some extent, and do not generate an effect better than predicted. The deodorizing and antimicrobial agent of the present invention has a loquat seed extract including non-volatile fatty acids and at least benzaldehyde and benzoic acid as a main raw material.
