  • Patent number: 8580728
    Abstract: The use of fragrance compositions comprising fragrance compounds selected among: aldehydes, ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes, alcohols, ketones, and mixtures thereof in any home and personal care product, each fragrance compound being able to restrict the formation of indole to less than 0.01 ppm (wt/wt) after 24 hours incubation at room temperature in an airtight sealed vessel of suitable fresh human urine containing 0.28% by weight of each fragrance compound in order to prevent the development of indole based malodours from faecal and urine based soils.

  • Publication number: 20050019452
    Abstract: A packaging for containing a particulate product is disclose in preferred forms of a canister (10) and a bag (100). The packaging includes a body (11, 110) and at least one microhole (40, 400) formed in the body (11, 110). Other than the microhole(s) (40, 400), the body (11, 110) is hermetically sealed. In this regard, the body (11, 110) defines an internal storage region (20, 200) configured to contain a particulate product (22). The microhole(s) (40, 400) are sized to allow passage of air from the internal storage region (20, 200), as well as to limit passage of the particulate product (22). During use, a decrease in atmospheric pressure applied to the packaging, such as during shipping, results in air being vented from the internal storage region (20, 200) via the microhole(s) (40, 400). Due to this air flow, an internal pressure of the body (11, 110) maintains substantial equilibrium with atmospheric pressure such that the body (11, 110) will not unexpectedly expand or in the case of bag (100) burst.
