    Abstract: Provided are a method of stabilizing a leuco dye storable as a liquid for a long time, a method of reducing nonspecific color development thereof at a time of a color development reaction, and a stable liquid reagent composition using the methods. The inventors of the present invention found that coexistence of the leuco dye with a specific reducing agent resulted in suppression of self color development and its remarkably improved stability in a solution, and that when a color development reaction of the leuco dye with hydrogen peroxide was performed, coexistence of the leuco dye, in a reaction solution, with another dye which had an absorption spectrum not influencing a measurement wavelength of the leuco dye and did not react with hydrogen peroxide suppressed nonspecific color development and lowered a reagent blank value, which was applied to an analytical reagent.

  • Patent number: 7601180
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use, for the dyeing with lightening effect of human keratin substances, and in particular of human keratin fibres such as the hair, of a composition comprising at least one fluorescent cyanine dye. The present invention allows human keratin substances to be both dyed and at the same time lightened without detriment to said substances. The fluorescent dyes employed in the context of the invention also have high tinctorial affinity for keratin substances and good properties of resistance towards external agents, and especially towards shampoos.

  • Patent number: 7585332
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions for dyeing keratin fibers, and in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, comprising at least one compound of styryl or imine type containing a heterocycle and at least one thiol compound. The present invention makes it possible in particular to obtain a chromatic and fast coloration of keratin fibers, especially with respect to shampooing. Moreover, the color obtained is visible even on dark hair without necessarily using an oxidizing composition. The invention also makes it possible to obtain a coloration which, under certain conditions, does not stain.
