Abstract: Disclosed are perfume compositions containing perfume ingredients selected on the basis that they are able to be stably incorporated into core-shell microcapsules. Perfume selection rules are based on a molecular descriptor of the electron density distribution within a perfume ingredient—RECON VOLTAE. Perfume ingredients having known RECON_VOLTAE values larger than about 1200 Bohr3, more particularly larger than 1540 Bohr3, and more particularly still larger than about 1750 Bohr3 are particularly suitable for encapsulation.

Abstract: The present invention suppresses the strength reduction or degeneration of a tissue after the tissue is dried and/or sterilized, for the tissue comprising biological components and the like. Specifically, biological tissue is immersed in a trehalose solution and shaken, thereby impregnating the biological tissue with the trehalose solution.
