  • Patent number: 9795598
    Abstract: This invention relates to liquid application for skin rejuvenation created from specific amino acids, lipids, nucleic acids and vitamins. This collection of molecules delivers precisely the factors necessary to a specific site requiring healing; a direct intervention system to most expeditiously remodel skin with building blocks. This delivery is a transdermal topical delivery. Healing is via specific molecules that engender a false autocoid reaction rapidly followed by an incremental healing-anti-inflammatory response augmented by very specific (GRAS” ingredients in the invention and also recruited from the body to this needy site. Energy is brought to site by transdermally delivered protons and enhanced by the local vascular flow initiated by transdermal molecules. This delivery system bypasses digestion and dilution. Key is a lipophilic carrier with nuclear and mitochondrial ligands that rapidly penetrate and permeate all membranes and truncates the inflammatory site quickly manifesting curation.

  • Patent number: 9795644
    Abstract: The invention relates to grass pollen extracts containing reduced amount of flavonoid glycosides in order to minimize the risks of genotoxicity of the grass pollen extracts. The invention also relates to a method of preparing grass pollen extracts containing reduced amount of flavonoid glycosides by ultrafiltration. Flavonoid glycosides are naturally present in grass pollen extracts and they have been identified as being responsible for the formation of flavonoid aglycones, which are genotoxic in vitro, under the influence of enzymes contained in the grass pollen extracts.
