Abstract: a savoury flavour concentrate from seaweed provides for umami and meaty notes when added to savoury food product. The concentrate can be used for the preparation of flavour products or can be added as such. Also described is a process for the preparation of the concentrate from seaweed by boiling seaweed, removing it from the boiling water, and further concentrating the remaining liquid.

Abstract: The present invention relates to solidified, oil-in-water dispersion or emulsion deodorant or antiperspirant stick compositions. Disclosed is a deodorant or an antiperspirant stick composition in the form of an oil-in-water dispersion or emulsion, comprising: i) at least one lipophilic material having a melting point higher than 50° C.; ii) at least one nonionic emulsifier having a HLB value from 1 to 11 within an oil-in-water emulsifier mixture with an average HLB value in the range of from 6.8 to 11; iii) an aqueous cosmetically acceptable carrier; wherein said composition comprises at least 8% of said lipophilic material by weight of the composition; wherein said composition comprises higher than 50 wt % of water by weight of the composition; wherein said lipophilic material has a straight alkyl chain comprising at least 20 carbon atoms.

Abstract: A liquid laundry detergent composition comprising from 2 to 30% wt. methyl ester ethoxylate (MEE) and from 0.01 to 10% wt. fragrance, wherein said MEE comprises C18 alkyl and wherein the fragrance comprises a fragrance component selected from manzanate, benzyl acetate, limonene, dihydromyrcenol, n-hexyl salicylate, tonalid and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to improving the stability of a peroxide containing bleach composition. It particularly relates to such a composition for hard surface cleaning applications including toilet cleaning as well as for fabric cleaning application. It relates to an antimicrobial composition comprising a peroxide bleaching agent which in the presence of a cationic surfactant and an organic acid is more stable than has been heretofore known. This is achieved by inclusion of a stabilizer which in the present invention is a polyalkylene glycol compound.

Abstract: An antiperspirant aerosol composition comprising a three-component mixture of propellant, ethanol and a lipid mixture consisting of glycerol monolaurate and isostearyl alcohol at a ratio of from 25:75 to 45:55, wherein the propellant content of the three-component mixture is from 40 to 87.5%; the ethanol content of the three-component mixture is from 10 to 57.5% and the lipid content of the three-component mixture is from 2.5% up to a maximum equal to the sum of 4.805 and the ethanol content multiplied by 0.115.

Abstract: The invention relates to concentrated premixes for the manufacture of plant-based frozen confections. The concentrated premixes are oil-in water emulsions having a high total solids content.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antiperspirant composition, particularly to antiperspirant composition having high levels of oil. The present inventors have found that when compositions having an unsaturated oil such as sunflower seed oil is present in the antiperspirant composition together with high total oil content present in the composition, the fabric which comes in contact with the composition in the axilla tends to get stained on repeated use. The present inventors have found that the problem of staining or yellowing of fabrics is significantly lowered when a combination of an alkoxylated aliphatic ether with an alkyl chain length of C3 to C10 and specific polyethylene glycol diester of fatty acid with chain length of C12 to C18 is used in an antiperspirant composition having high total oil content including unsaturated oil and an antiperspirant active.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a mild liquid composition with enhanced antimicrobial activity. The liquid composition of the present invention is mild and unexpectedly yields superior antimicrobial activity when used in cleansing applications. The liquid composition comprises an anionic surfactant and an acid, and is formulated to yield a wash solution having a pH from 2.9 to 5.2.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a mild bar composition with enhanced antimicrobial activity. The bar composition of the present invention is mild and unexpectedly yields superior antimicrobial activity when used in cleansing applications. The bar composition comprises an anionic surfactant and an acid, and is formulated, when lathered, to generate a wash slurry having a pH from 2.9 to 5.2.

Abstract: Antimicrobial systems with naturally derived ingredients and compositions comprising them are described. The systems have a first ingredient comprising an indole alkaloid and a second natural ingredient that includes a phenolic acid where the systems and compositions provide superior antimicrobial benefits.
