Method for remineralizing teeth or increasing hardness of tooth enamel by application of Brazilian green propolis oil or its components.

A preparation method of a colloidal system of stabilisation and controlled release of royal jelly ingredients, wherein the system is characterized by the extraction of the components of the royal jelly and the simultaneous encapsulation in combinatorial liposome -cyclodextrin carriers for achieving controlled release, taking advantage of the special features of both carriers, namely: the ability of cyclodextrins to encapsulate polyphenols and their enhanced skin penetration ability as well as the ability of liposomes in encapsulating large amounts of components of various degrees of polarity, for local component transport and for controlled release rate.

A formulation for the treatment of hair, in particular for treatment of hair loss and dandruff, useful as a lotion and/or a spray. The formulation comprises at least dates, date seeds, and ethanol from fermented dates and date seeds.

A process for obtaining compositions constituted by propolis nanoparticles is disclosed. The nanoparticles are optionally associated to a substance of interest such as active ingredients, and, optionally, substances of secondary effect such as synergists and adjuvants. The process includes preparing a fraction A, which consists of propolis extract dissolved in an organic solvent, to which stabilizer and/or emulsifier may be added, and, optionally, substances of interest and/or of secondary effect; ii) preparing a fraction B, aqueous phase, constituted by: (ii.1) water; or (ii.2) an aqueous solution or dispersion, to which stabilizer and/or emulsifier may be added; (iii) dropping the fraction A onto the fraction B or vice versa; iv) homogenizing the mixture by stirring and spontaneous formation of nanoparticles with average size from 1 to 1000 nm in a dispersion; and v) optionally (v-1) removing organic solvent and/or (v-2) drying the nanodispersion.

The present invention provides a composition for preventing, improving or treating periodontal diseases comprising extract of mangosteen.

The composition of the present invention has excellent anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects against bacteria inducing periodontal diseases as comprising extract of mangosteen, or alpha-mangosteen or gamma-mangosteen derived from thereof, and thereby it can be widely used for medicines and foods for preventing, improving or treating periodontal diseases.

The disclosure also describes a method for creating a composition, comprising: a) preparing a water phase mixture with a base of deionized water; b) optionally adding thickening or thinning agents into a water phase and mixing until free from lumps; c) optionally adding carrageenan into the mixture and mixing until free of lumps; d) heating the mixture to up to 80° C.; e) adding vegetable glycerin and optionally aloe vera gel or liquid and mixing until completely uniform; f) preparing an oil phase mixture by heating one or more carrier oils to up to 75° C.; g) adding a dispersant, SPF boosting oils and/or waxes, and optionally stearic acid, an anti-oxidant, and vitamin E oil, and mixing until all the solids are dissolved; h) slowly adding sucrose stearate, maintaining temperature; i) adding inorganic sun-block agents while homogenizing until smooth and uniform; j) increasing the temperature to up to 80° C. and adding said water phase mixture; k) mixing until smooth and homogenous; l) cooling the mixture down to 45° C. or less; m) adding aloe vera gel, and optionally a salt, grapefruit seed extract, and ascorbyl palmitate, powdered butter milk, and powdered milk; n) adding preservatives; o) adding essential oils; and finally p) mixing until smooth and homogenous. The compositions of the present disclosure are shown to be capable of protecting skin and mammalian health from the harmful effects of radiation including ultraviolet light or sunlight by inhibiting the loss of skin immunocompetency and eliminating any known or suspected endocrine disrupting agents normally utilized as sun protective agents.

Described herein are compositions in nanofiber form including one or more bioactive compounds releasably incorporated thereon. In one embodiment a composition is described comprising at least one nanofiber and at least one bioactive compound. The nanofibers are formed from a base material that is solubilized with the bioactive or bioactives in an aqueous based solvent solution and the base material and bioactives are together spun via electrospinning to form dry fibers with the bioactives chemically bonded to the nanofibers and the bioactives remaining stable during storage of the composition under ambient conditions substantially free of moisture. On exposure to moisture, the nanofibers dissolve, thereby releasing the bioactives.

Disclosed is a spreadable propolis products which can be used in many sectors such as food, health and cosmetics that offer them for human consumption in their most suitable and in the highest form of bioavailability, in a fast and easy consumable state by properly extracting propolis which cause development of antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal, antivirus, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancerogen and anesthesic effects as well as many beneficial biological activities. Production methods thereof are also disclosed.
