Abstract: A method for reversing or mitigating skin aging comprising topically applying a composition which comprises at least one oxidant, and at least one fluorescent dye capable of activating the oxidant and illuminating said composition for a time sufficient to activate the at least one oxidant.

Abstract: The present document describes methods and uses of biophotonic compositions which comprise at least one oxidant and at least one chromophore capable of activating the oxidant, in association with a pharmacologically acceptable carrier for use in the treatment of skin and soft tissue wounds that have either or both non-resistant and resistant infections.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a biophotonic system comprising at least one chromofilm; and a light-emitting support operably connectable to the chromofilm. Operable connection of the light-emitting support and the at least one chromofilm allows for the light-emitting support to illuminate the at least one chromofilm.

Abstract: The present document describes methods and uses of biophotonic compositions which comprise at least one oxidant and at least one chromophore capable of activating the oxidant, in association with a pharmacologically acceptable carrier for use in the treatment of skin and soft tissue wounds that have either or both non-resistant and resistant infections.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to compounds comprising homotaurine that may be used in improving the general mental condition and/or general brain function of a non-human animal, and for the prophylaxis of chronic, aging-related mental deterioration in non-human animals. In addition, the present disclosure generally relates to compositions comprising homotaurine that may be used in determining whether a candidate veterinary compound and/or a candidate formulation can improve general mental condition and/or general brain function of animals and for the prophylaxis of chronic, aging-related mental deterioration in non-human animals.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides biophotonic topical compositions, kits and their uses. In some aspects, the biophotonic topical compositions of the present disclosure comprise a first chromophore, a salt selected from one or more bicarbonate or carbonate salts or a combination of the foregoing salts, and one or more gelling agents. In some aspects, the biophotonic topical compositions of the present disclosure comprise a first chromophore, one or more polyols, and one or more gelling agents. The biophotonic compositions of the present disclosure do not include an oxidant selected from the group consisting of a peroxide, a peroxy acid, hydrogen peroxide, carbamide peroxide, an alkali metal peroxide, an alkali metal percarbonate, peroxyacetic acid, and an alkali metal perborate. The biophotonic compositions are useful for promoting wound healing and skin rejuvenation, as well as treating acne and various skin disorders.

Abstract: The technology defined in the present document generally relates to a method for enhancing hair growth on an area of a skin of a subject. The method comprises topically applying a composition comprising at least one light-absorbing molecule to the skin; and exposing said applied composition to actinic light to cause activation of the composition. Activation of the applied composition triggers enhancement of hair growth on the skin.

Abstract: There is provided a method for treating pigmented lesions comprising a composition which comprises at least one oxidant, at least one photoactivator capable of activating the oxidant. The composition may further comprise at least one healing factor chosen from hyaluronic acid, glucosamine and allantoin, in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
