Abstract: An array of at least two commonly-branded absorbent articles, such as wipes products. The array includes a first wipes product and a second wipes product. Each wipes product may appeal to a different type of consumer, such as a light experience seeking consumer and a heavy experience seeking consumer. The first wipes product may include a first supply of wipes formed from a first substrate. The first supply of wipes is moistened with a first functional lotion composition including a first fragrance accord and a first lotion formula. The second wipes product may include a second supply of wipes formed from a second substrate. The second supply of wipes is moistened with a second functional lotion composition including a second fragrance accord and a second lotion formula. The second fragrance accord is different from the first fragrance accord, and the second lotion formula is different from the first lotion formula.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a novel virus, called Cedar Virus, and its methods of use.

Abstract: An absorbent article, intended to be worn by a wearer, wherein at least a part of a body facing surface of that article has a lotion composition. The lotion composition includes at least one first compound which is liquid at 25° C. and at least one second compound which is solid at 25° C. The first compound is a liquid polyethylene glycol, and the second compound is a solid fatty compound selected from the group consisting of solid fatty acids, solid fatty alcohol and solid fatty soaps. When the solid fatty compound is a solid fatty acid, then the total amount of liquids is higher than the total amount of solids.

Abstract: A lotion emulsion composition comprising a preservative enhancing agent and a rheology modifier, wherein the preservative enhancing agent comprises one of sorbitan caprylate, glyceryl caprylate/caprate, or a combination thereof, the rheology modifier comprises a hydrocolloid, the pH of the lotion emulsion composition is less than about 4.2, and the combined amount of preservative enhancing agent and rheology modifier is less than about 0.3% by weight of the total lotion emulsion composition.

Abstract: An anti-stick agent and a performance enhancing agent that may be incorporated into an aqueous medium to assist in the prevention of soils and bodily exudates adhering to the skin. A substrate may be utilized to assist in delivering the anti-stick agent and the performance enhancing agent to the skin.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a novel virus, called Cedar Virus, and its methods of use.

Abstract: A wet wipe that exhibits a novel combination of properties and methods for making such wet wipes are provided.

Abstract: The product efficacy apparatus includes a roller having an outer surface and a test bed having a test surface. The roller may be affixed to a rotatable shaft having opposing end regions. The shaft may be rotatably connected to an arm at each end of the end regions of the shaft. Each arm is pivotally connected to a drive member that is rollingly connected to a stationary track. In operation, a cleaning product may be affixed to the outer surface of the roller. A controlled insult may be applied to the test surface. The arms pivot toward the test surface in order to direct the cleaning product on the outer surface of the roller into contact with the test surface. The drive members direct the roller over the controlled insult. The shaft rotates the roller over the test surface and the arms pivot the roller away from the test surface.

Abstract: A method of reducing a wetness gradient development for a package of wet wipes is provided. The method includes, after wet wipes are enclosed within a package to form the package of wet wipes, locating the package of wet wipes in a first orientation such that a first side faces downward and an opposite second side faces upward to form a first wetness gradient after a preselected amount of time. Prior to opening the package of wet wipes, the method includes inverting the package of wet wipes according to a predetermined turning schedule to place the package of wet wipes in a second orientation such that the first side faces upward and the second side faces downward to form a second wetness gradient that is different from the first wetness gradient.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes cleansing compositions for removing soils from surfaces. Tee cleansing composition may be loaded ones a substrate to form a wet wipe. The cleansing composition may include a glucomannan and a synergy enhancing agent. The synergy enhancing agent may include xanthan gum. The synergy enhancing component may include xanthan gum and carrageenan. The wet wipe may be used to assist in the removal of soils such as feces, menses, and urine from skin.
