  • Publication number: 20230340074
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of purifying albumin-fusion proteins to reduce the level of oxidation of susceptible amino acid residues. The method comprises an affinity matrix chromatography step and an anion exchange chromatography step. The purified albumin-fusion proteins have low levels of oxidation and retain their enhanced half-life in vivo and its bioactivity. In some embodiments, the albumin-fusion protein comprises a scaffold, such as human Tenascin C scaffold. Compositions comprising the albumin-fusion protein are further disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10751266
    Abstract: A method of producing a multi-layer beauty care product for applying a skin active agent to the skin. The method involves applying a water-soluble fluid to a transfer substrate. The water-soluble fluid contains a skin active agent and is applied to the transfer substrate through an image carrier having a mesh size of 40 to 500. The water-soluble fluid is dried to form a water-soluble film, which is then transferred to a backing layer coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive. The resulting multi-layer beauty care product provides a suitable a means of delivering the skin care active agent to a target portion of skin.
