A sunscreen composition can be mixed with a body wash, an after shower body lotion, a shampoo, a conditioner, a soap, a gel, a hand sanitizer, a cream, a spray, a mouse, a lotion, an ointment, a make-up product, a lip balm, a hair spray product, an arachnid/insect repellent or a medicinal product.
Description
BACKGROUND

Overexposure to ultraviolet (“UV”) radiation produced by the sun can result in deleterious effects to individuals, including, sunburn, premature aging of skin, premature wrinkling, and for many individuals, an increase in the risk of skin cancer. To avoid these adverse effects, it is common for individuals prior to exposure to sunlight to apply a sunscreen product to their skin. Such products are widely available and relatively inexpensive. However, many individuals fail to use them on a regular basis for reasons that include, without limitation, convenience of use and the feel of the product after application. Additionally, these products suffer from other issues such as uneven application and their inability to provide adequate protection due to loss of coverage suffered from such activities as swimming, exercise that results in perspiration and dermal penetration and subsequent excretion through the urine of the active agents incorporated in the sunscreen product that protects an individual from the sun's harmful UV radiation.


To provide more convenient, consistent and even sunscreen protection, several products that are used by individuals on a regular basis have been developed that incorporate sunscreen active agents that protect an individual from the sun's harmful UV radiation. In the United States, it is common for individuals to bathe or shower on a regular basis, in most instances, every day. It is also common for those same individuals to use a body wash, shampoo, conditioner, lotion or cream while they shower. Therefore, products have been developed that include sunscreen active agents in bodywashes and shampoos. Other products that have been developed to include sunscreen active agents are make-up, lip balm and even hair spray products. Though the use of these products adds convenience, they generally have not overcome some of the other issues related to the use of sunscreen products.


Nevertheless, in spite of all the above attempts, there remains an unmet need for an effective sunscreen product that provides an effective level of sun protection, particularly a level of sun block or sunscreen that is higher than existing formulations and remains effective even after rinsing one or more times following application as well as having a gentle or acceptable feel on the human skin, as opposed to an oily feel. The present invention addresses one or more of these needs by utilizing encapsulation technologies, milder surfactant systems, and good adhesive polymers that provide a strong binding capability, making it more efficient for deposition of sunscreen. The present invention adds cellulose derived capsules that contain one or more sunscreen active agents, resulting in an increase in SPF in the formulation as compared to free sunscreen or non-encapsulated material. The cellulose derived capsules of the present invention also lay down on the skin surface in a manner that result in packing and spreading of the sunscreen active agent over the skin of an individual. The cellulose derived capsules of the present invention also provide a means for formulating a sunscreen active agent that can result in a greater amount of sunscreen active agent after application through such products as shampoo, body wash, conditioner, lotion, mousse, spray, hand sanitizer, cream and gel.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present specification encompasses compositions comprising one or more sunscreen active agents enclosed in a cellulose derived capsule (also referred to as “an encapsulated sunscreen agent”). The sunscreen compositions are formulated with cationic polymer in a manner that causes the encapsulated sunscreen agent to adhere or be trapped in a polymer complex to a skin surface, hair shaft, or any substrate which can accept an opposing charge forming a protective layer that shields an individual from the deleterious effects of harmful UV radiation due to sun exposure. The adhesive nature of the encapsulated sunscreen agent and its film forming embodiment enables the sunscreen composition to remain on the skin's surface for longer periods of time relative to conventional sunscreen compositions without the encapsulates and its packing capability, even after exposure to water or other liquids, thereby extending its protective time-frame. In addition, because the sunscreen active agent remained encapsulated, protection is not lost due to absorption of the sunscreen agent into the skin. Therefore, the disclosed sunscreen compositions provide significantly longer sunscreen protection relative to conventional sunscreen compositions. A sunscreen composition disclosed herein can be manufactured as a solid, a liquid, a colloidal, or an aerosol. In addition, a sunscreen composition disclosed herein can be manufactured into, without limitation, a body wash, an after shower body lotion, a shampoo, a conditioner, a soap, a gel, a hand sanitizer, a cream, a spray, a mouse, a lotion, an ointment, a make-up product, a lip balm, a hair spray product, an arachnid/insect repellent or a medicinal product. As such, the disclosed compositions may be easily and conveniently applied during normal hygienic activities, such as, e.g., washing, showering, bathing, after bathing or showering while the skin is still wet, or during routine moisturizing or other hygiene activities, resulting in the application of an effective level of an encapsulated sunscreen agent to a skin surface that will provide excellent solar protection of an individual's body even after activities that would remove conventional sunscreen protections, such as, e.g., washing, rinsing, or swimming.

A sunscreen active agent disclosed herein can have a log P value indicating that the compound is soluble in an organic solvent. As used herein, the term “log P value” refers to the logarithm (base 10) of the partition coefficient (P) for a compound and is a measure of lipophilicity. It is a partition coefficient expressed as the log ratio of the concentrations of the solute in the solvent and is a measure of differential solubility of a compound in two solvents. Typically, P is defined as the ratio of concentrations of a unionized compound in the two phases of a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. Thus, log P=Log 10 (P), where P=[solute in immiscible solvent 1]/[solute in immiscible solvent 2]. With regard to organic and aqueous phases, the log P value of a compound is constant for any given pair of aqueous and organic solvents, and its value can be determined empirically by one of several phase-partitioning methods known to one skilled in the art including, e.g., a shake flask assay, a HPLC assay, and an interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) assay.

The sun protection factor (SPF) of a sunscreen active agent is a laboratory measure of the effectiveness of sunscreen. The SPF is the amount of UV radiation required to cause sunburn on the skin with the sunscreen on, as a multiple of the amount required without the sunscreen. SPF is determined by measuring the Minimal Erythemal Dose (“MED”) and is defined as the threshold dose that produces skin erythema. The MED indicates the amount of energy irradiating the skin and the responsiveness of the skin to the radiation. In order to determine the MED, the reaction of the skin is recorded 24 hours after exposure to UV radiation. The minimal dose that induces any visible reddening at that point is defined as one MED. Redness that occurs immediately after exposure, however, and disappears during the following three to five hours is mainly caused by heat and is not comparable with real UV erythema. The SPF of a particular sunscreen active agent is obtained by dividing the MED of skin that has been protected by an active agent by the MED of unprotected skin. The higher the SPF, the more effective the active agent is in preventing an individual from skin erythema, which is on an individual is recognized as constituting a sunburn. SPF is generally measured in numerical increments that identify how long an individual can be exposed to UV radiation from the sun before that same individual will experience 1 MED. For example, utilizing a sunscreen with an SPF of 6 will allow an individual to be exposed to the sun six times longer than an SPF of 1 before that individual receives 1 MED. As the SPF value of a sunscreen increases, the less chance exists for development UV erythema of the skin. Methods for measuring SPF are described in, e.g., FDA monograph C.F.R. 21. A method for applying the sunscreen prior to measurement is as follows: Wet 50 cm2 square area of testing site with 10 ml of water delivered with a syringe. Apply test sample as per FDA monograph to area. Work lather on the subject for 3 minutes to allow the product to absorb into the skin. Rinse area after 2 additional minutes with 20 ml of water. Pat dry and allow 15 minutes before exposure to radiation as per FDA monograph.

A composition comprising one or more sunscreen active agents may further include one or more photostabilizing agents. Generally, a sunscreen active agent is photosensitive and is susceptible to photochemically-initiated degradation reactions. A photostabilizing agent stabilizes against light-induced degradation and help prevent a sunscreen agent disclosed herein from losing its effectiveness in absorbing, blocking and/or reflecting UV radiation. Photostabilizing agents do not absorb UV radiation, but act to inhibit degradation of a sunscreen active agent disclosed herein.


One type of photostabilizing agent helps stabilize a sunscreen agent disclosed herein structurally and geometrically through electrostatic and van der Waals interactions, which insulate the sunscreen active agent from being altered during the chemical reaction. Another type of photostabilizing agent protects a sunscreen active agent disclosed herein by dissipating the energy from UV radiation more quickly, thus reducing or even eliminating the possibility of a chemical reaction. This process is called energy transfer, and it can take place when a sunscreen agent disclosed herein and photostabilizing agent exchange electrons. In this way, a sunscreen agent disclosed herein is freed up to protect the skin by absorbing, blocking and/or reflecting harmful UV radiation, while the photostabilizing agent dissipates the energy.


A photostabilizing agent enables the use of less sunscreen active agent which increases the safety of a composition disclosed herein by reducing the amount of sunscreen active agent is used, thereby reducing the amount of sunscreen active agent that can be absorbed into the body and systemically distributed. In addition, reducing the amount of sunscreen active agent also reduces the overall cost of making a composition disclosed herein. Non-limiting examples of a photostabilizing agent include 4-methylbenzylidene camphor (MBC), an alpha olefin copolymer, Bemotrizinol (BTZ), Galangal extract, ethylhexyl methoxycrylene (SOLASTAY® 51), a hindered amine light stabilizer [HALS, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidine-based compounds including TINUVIN® compounds (BASF), CHIMASSORB® compounds (BASF) and LA compounds (Amfine)], hexylresorcinol, Polyester-25 (a bis-Methoxycrylene/octyldodecyl adipic acid/methylpropanediol copolymer)(SOLASTAY® P1), octasalicyalte (octasalate), trimethoxybenzylidene pentanedione (SYNOXYL® HSS, Sytheon, Ltd.), polyester-8. Photostabilizing agents useful in a composition disclosed herein are also described in, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,801,244 and U.S. Patent Publications 2009/0074684 and 2013/0059924, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.


Use of one or more photostabilizing agents increases the SPF of a composition disclosed herein.

In an embodiment, an agent disclosed herein can have more than one function. For example, without limitation, inorganic blockers such as Tioveil and Spectraveil (both of the Tioxide Group), can act as film-formers and have other advantageous uses. In an embodiment, a sunscreen composition includes, without limitation, a wide variety of additional components selected so as to avoid any undesirable reaction with the primary components (e.g., one or more of the sunscreen active agents) of the composition. The CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook, Seventh Edition, 1997 and the Eighth Edition, 2000 (incorporated by reference herein), provide a broad source of possible cosmetic and pharmaceutical ingredients typically used in skin care compositions. In an embodiment, additional components include, without limitation, one or more of the following: Absorbents, abrasives, anticaking agents, antifoaming agents, binders, biological additives, buffering agents, bulking agents, chelating agents/sequestrants (e.g., disodium EDTA), chemical additives, colorants, cosmetic astringents, cosmetic biocides, denaturants, drug astringents, emollients (including glycerin alovera, and Vitamins A, C, and D [hydrating agents and skin protectants]), foam boosters, fragrance components, gums, humectants/moisturizers (including urea, guanidine, glycolic acid, polyhydroxy alcohols such as sorbitol, glycerin, hexanetriol, propylene glycol, hexylene glycol and the like, polyethylene glycol, sugars and starches, sugar and starch derivatives, D-panthenol, hyaluronic acid, lactamide monoethanolamine, acetamide monoethanolamine, and mixtures thereof), hydrotropes, neutralizing agents, opacifying agents and pigments, pH adjusters, plasticizers, preservatives, propellants, reducing agents, skin bleaching agents, skin protectants, solubilizing agents, and suspending agents (e.g., Carbomer 1382).


A sunscreen active agent, a photostabilizing agent and/or an additional agent disclosed herein can be encapsulated in a cellulose derived capsule. Generally, encapsulation of a molecule, including, without limitation, a sunscreen active agent, a photostabilizing agent and/or an additional agent disclosed herein involves trapping the agent into a vesicle, such as, e.g., a microsphere (or microcapsule) or nanosphere (or nanocapsule). In addition, a cellulose derived capsule itself can has UV light absorption properties that can increase the protective effectiveness of a composition disclosed herein. A cellulose derived capsule can be prepared in large quantities without a high reaction time and drying step and the preparation and purification of cellulose derived capsules are well known to a person skilled in the art, see, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,039,015 and 8,685,425, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.


A cellulose derived capsule can have either a hard or a flexible shell. A flexible shell enables for the tight packing of the capsules on the surface of the skin to form an encapsulate layer, prevents breakage or rupture of the capsules upon friction or other external force and/or enables capsule to have high load rates. For example, applications involving a non-encapsulated sunscreen active agent, photostabilizing agent and/or additional agent is absorbed directly into the skin within about 1 hour, thereby providing limited protection from harmful UV light produced by the sun or man-made light sources and/or other beneficial results. Flexible cellulose derived capsules containing one or more sunscreen active agents, photostabilizing agents and/or additional agents disclosed herein form an encapsulation layer on top of the skin surface. The flexibility of the cellulose derived capsules enable dense packing of the capsules to form a strong cohesive encapsulate layer. Amoung other things, this encapsulate layer acts like a shield to physically protect a skin surface from harmful UV light generated by the sun or a man-made light source. This encapsulate layer appears to be maintained on the surface of skin for upwards of 8 or more hours.


Another advantage of flexible cellulose derived capsules is that the flexible nature of these encapsulates prevents breakage or rupture of the capsules upon friction or other external force, resulting in the release of their contents onto a skin surface. A sunscreen active agent that is applied directly to a skin surface is readily absorbed by the skin within 1 hour. As discussed above, a non-encapsulated sunscreen active agent, photostabilizing agent and/or additional agent is absorbed directly into the skin within about 1 hour. This is detrimental because protection from the sun or other benefit is quickly lost and repeated applications are required to maintain protection. In addition, absorption of many sunscreen active agents can be toxic to some degree and create health problems for the user. Encapsulated sunscreen active agents, photostabilizing agents and/or additional agents contained within cellulose derived capsules prevents these detrimental effects by forming an encapsulate layer on a skin surface. This allows the sunscreen active agents to absorb and or reflect harmful UV light or provide other beneficial effects for a much longer period of time, namely 8 or more hours, because these agents are kept at the skin surface. In addition, since the sunscreen active agents are contained within flexible cellulose derived capsules, absorption into the skin is minimized.


Encapsulation increases the stability of the sunscreen composition by protecting the encapsulated sunscreen active agent, photostabilizing agent and/or additional agent disclosed herein. In addition, encapsulation increases the effectiveness of the sunscreen composition to protect an individual from deleterious effects of UV exposure by creating a encapsulate layer that physically shield the skin layer from UV light. Furthermore, encapsulation also minimizes the absorption of sunscreen active agent, a photostabilizing agent and/or an additional agent disclosed herein into the dermis and subsequent systemic distribution in the body.


In an embodiment, sunscreen active agent, a photostabilizing agent and/or an additional agent disclosed herein is encapsulated in a cellulose derived capsule.

In a further embodiment, the cellulose derived capsules in a sunscreen composition are of different sizes and/or contain multiple layers. In an additional embodiment, each layer of a cellulose derived capsule can contain one or more sunscreen active agents, photostabilizing agents and/or additional agents. In a further aspect, the present invention discloses that the cellulose derived capsule is comprised of two or more layers, further, wherein each layer can contain a different sunscreen active agent, wherein each layer can contain the same sunscreen active agent, wherein each layer can contain a different sunscreen active agent, wherein at least one layer can contain a different sunscreen active agent than at least one other layer, wherein at least one layer can contain a sunscreen active agent and at least one layer contains an antioxidant, wherein at least one layer can contain a sunscreen active agent and at least one layer contains a vitamin, wherein at least one layer can contain a sunscreen active agent and at least one layer contains an anti-inflammatory, wherein at least one layer can contain a sunscreen active agent and at least one layer can contain an astringent.


Besides encapsulating one or more sunscreen active agent, a photostabilizing agent and/or an additional agent disclosed herein, a cellulose derived capsule disclosed herein forms a physical layer on a skin surface that acts as a protective barrier. As such, a composition disclosed herein may include cellulose derived capsules without any sunscreen active agents, photostabilizing agents and additional agents disclosed herein (i.e., filled with an insert liquid like a hydrophobic component, such as, e.g., an oil). In such an application, the hydrophobic component-filled cellulose derived capsules are designed so as to experience minimal or no leakage or decomposition when applied to the skin. The hydrophobic component-filled cellulose derived capsules are eventually removed from the skin through repeated washing and/or normal sloughing of the external skin cell layers. Especially for agents used for one-time or very few exposures, such as can occur for personnel engaged in combating or containing terrorist attacks or in warfare, the invention provides a means to deliver a last line of defence on the skin of personnel where the active used in the microcapsules may be one that is not appropriate for long-term use, but that is appropriate for a limited number of applications in order to protect the wearer from a greater risk (e.g., cellulose derived capsules, including, without limitation, microcapsules, encapsulating lead to protect against a radiation attack).


A cellulose derived capsule has sufficient size to form a protective layer on top of a skin surface after application of a composition disclosed herein. If cellulose derived capsules are too large, its size will reduce or disrupt the formation of an encapsulate layer, thereby reducing the packing of encapsulates which in turn will reduce the efficiency of the UV absorption and exposing the skin layer from harmful UV radiation.

EXAMPLES

The following non-limiting examples are provided for illustrative purposes only in order to facilitate a more complete understanding of representative embodiments now contemplated. These examples should not be construed to limit any of the embodiments described in the present specification, including those pertaining to the sunscreen compositions, methods or uses pertaining to sunscreen compositions.


Example 1: SPF Testing of Sunscreen Body Wash Compositions

Sunscreen body wash compositions disclosed herein were tested to determine their SPF value using the static, rinse/lather/rinse/rub and/or water immersion (40 or 80 minute) assays using the methods described in FDA Final Monograph, “Labelling and Effectiveness Testing; Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-the Counter Human Use”, Final Rule, 21 C.F.R. §§ 201 and 310. To conduct this test, a 50 cm2 square area on the back of an individual (application site) was wetted with 10 mL of water delivered with a syringe. The test sunscreen composition was then applied to the application site in amounts as specified in the FDA monograph. To perform the static assay, the applied composition was allowed to dry for 15 minutes and then exposed to a fixed dose of UV radiation having a continuous emission spectrum from 290 nm to 400 nm with a limit of 1,500 W/m2 using a solar simulator as specified in the FDA monograph. To perform the rinse/lather/rinse/rub assay, the applied composition was worked into a lather for two minutes and then the application site was rinsed for two minutes with 20 mL water, pat dried and then rubbed using moderate pressure for 20 seconds. The application site was then exposed to a fixed dose of UV radiation having a continuous emission spectrum from 290 nm to 400 nm with a limit of 1,500 W/m2 using a solar simulator as specified in the FDA monograph. To perform the water immersion assay, the applied composition was allowed to dry for 15 minutes and then the application site immersed into a whirlpool bath for either 40 or 80 minutes. The application site was then exposed to a fixed dose of UV radiation having a continuous emission spectrum from 290 nm to 400 nm with a limit of 1,500 W/m2 using a solar simulator as specified in the FDA monograph.


Table 1 shows the test results of a sunscreen body wash composition disclosed herein comprises a cellulose encapsulate comprising a broad spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen active agent and a UVA sunscreen active agent, a cellulose encapsulate comprising a UVB sunscreen active agent, a polyquaternium, and one or more surfactants. In particular, a sunscreen body wash composition comprising about 11% of a cellulose encapsulate including a mixture of about 65% of an octocrylene and about 35% of avobenzone, about 8% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising octinoxate, about 2.5% of a polyquaternium, 10, about 3.5% sodium laureth sulfate, about 3.5% sodium lauryl sulfate and about 2.8% cocamido propylbetaine was tested. The results indicate that the disclosed sunscreen body wash composition had an average SPF value of 38.07 based on the static assay (Table 1). Interestingly, even after the rinse/lather/rinse/rub assay the average SPF value was still over 33 which represents only a 13% loss in SPF protection after a modified applied water method (Table 1).

Tables 2 and 3 show similar results. The sunscreen body wash compositions exhibited an average SPF value of 34.5 based on the static assay (Tables 2 and 3). However, even after an 80 water immersion assay, the UV radiation protective capabilities of these compositions were still maintained to an average SPF value of 34.5 (Table 2) and 32.25 (Tables 2 and 3). These results show that the disclose sunscreen body wash compositions demonstrate a significant increase in UV radiation protection and very good water resistant properties.

Example 2: SPF Testing of Sunscreen Lotion Compositions

Sunscreen lotion compositions disclosed herein were tested to determine their SPF value using the static and water immersion (40 or 80 minute) assays as described in Example 1.


Experiments were conducted with a sunscreen lotion composition comprising a photostabilizing agent. Table 7 shows the test results of a sunscreen lotion composition disclosed herein comprises a cellulose encapsulate comprising a broad spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen active agent, a UVA sunscreen active agent and a photostabilizing agent, a cellulose encapsulate comprising a UVB sunscreen active agent, a cellulose encapsulate comprising a silicone oil, a cellulose encapsulate comprising a comprising a shea oil, one or more emollients and one or more thickening agents. In particular, a sunscreen lotion composition comprising about 0.15% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising a silicone oil, about 0.2% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising a shea oil, about 11% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising about 63% of an octocrylene, about 35% of avobenzone and about 2% trimethoxy benylidene pentanedione, about 8% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising octinoxate, about 3.5% capryllic capric triglyceride, and about 2% dimethicone-vinyldimethyl trimethylsiloxysilicate-dimethicone crosspolymer and about 2.5% acrylate-sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer-based thickening agent including isohexadecane and polysorbate 80 (DERMACYL® AFQ) was tested. The results indicate that the disclosed sunscreen lotion composition had an average SPF value of 64.50 based on the static assay (Table 7). However, even after a 40 water immersion assay, the UV radiation protective capabilities of this composition was maintained, dropping only to an average SPF value of 30.0 (Table 7).

Table 8 shows similar results. The disclosed sunscreen lotion composition exhibited an average SPF value of 69.0 based on the static assay (Table 8). However, even after an 80 water immersion assay, the UV radiation protective capabilities of this composition was maintained, dropping only to an average SPF value of 52.2 (Table 8). These results indicate that a photostabilizing agent significantly increases the UV radiation protective capabilities of a sunscreen composition, and that this enhanced protective effect appears to be maintained even exposure to water immersion.

Similar SPF results are expected.


Example 7: Skin Penetration Experiments

An experiment was conducted to demonstrate that sunscreen active agents contained within the presently claimed cellulose derived capsules prevent absorption of the sunscreen active agents into the skin. Two sunscreen compositions were prepared. Sunscreen Composition 1 (Sun Comp 1) was a commercially available sunscreen formulation that contained 4.5% octylmethoxy cinnamate (unencapsulated or free) and was spiked with 0.2% Nile Red fluorescent dye. Sunscreen Composition 2 (Sun Comp 2) contained flexible cellulose derived capsules containing 4.5% octylmethoxy cinnamate and 0.2% Nile Red fluorescent dye.


Previously frozen (−80° C.) deidentified human breast skin (n=5) from a common donor were prepared by cleaning the skin surface with 70% ethanol and air dried for 5 minutes to remove superficial fluids that might impact absorption. Each sunscreen composition was then applied to a separate region of the surface of the prepared samples by spreading the composition with a plastic pipet tip to form an even layer with a minimum 5 mm margin of untreated surface at the cut edges, Each skin sample received a total dose of 5 mg/cm2 of each sunscreen composition. After dosing samples were incubated on a 35° C. flat surface with the inner sides of the samples kept hydrated with PBS buffer. Data was acquired for incubation times of 30 minutes and 90 minutes for each product type. Ager incubation, skin samples were blotted with absorbent paper to remove superficial sunscreen, then cleaned twice with fresh paper moistened with deionized water. Samples were mounted on a Vivascope 1500 fluorescence microscope fitted with a 658 nm, 531 nm, and 488 nm laser. Sample height and suitable topography were identified and imaged using 658 nm illumination in reflectance mode, and a co-registered fluorescence image stack was acquired at 10 μm depth steps using 488 nm illumination and a 607 nm filter set. Regions of Interest (ROI) of 100 by 100 pixels were identified in the 658 nm stack, confirmed in the 488 nm stack, and image intensity information was analyzed using ImageJ software (NIH) for each depth profile.



FIG. 1 indicates that dye penetration into skin is dramatically reduced (70%-80%) in the encapsulated formulation of Sunscreen Composition 2 relative to identically spiked commercial formulation of Sunscreen Composition 1, reflecting a strong reduction of octylmethoxy cinnamate absorption. In addition, no significant change in the overall concentration is observed between 30 and 90 minute time points, reflecting approximately steady-state flux, as the high surface concentration diffuses in to a relatively large volume of skin.


Replotting the fluorescence data using the 30 minute time point on a log scale indicated that the intensity drops with depth in an approximately linear fashion (FIG. 2). This is consistent with the idea that the diffusion rate for the octylmethoxy cinnamate/Nile Red dye solution should be constant in the skin independent of the formulation. The intercept however, shows that the penetration of the octylmethoxy cinnamate/Nile Red dye solution at the skin surface is substantially reduced for the encapsulated formulation of Sunscreen Composition 2. This finding indicates that encapsulated octylmethoxy cinnamate of the encapsulated formulation of Sunscreen Composition 2 prevented the skin from becoming saturated with this sunscreen active agent.



FIGS. 3A-C visually shows that the vast majority of the fluorescent dye containing cellulose derived capsules remained on the skin surface (compare 10 μm skin depth photograph of FIG. 3A with 50 μm skin depth photograph of FIG. 3B and 90 μm skin depth photograph of FIG. 3C). For example, at 10 μm the stratum corneum is high reflective and appears bright. However, in deep locations, there is no bright appearance. Quantitation of the fluorescence indicate that very little penetration of the fluorescent dye occurred below 10 μm from the skin surface (FIG. 3D). In comparison to the commercial formulation of Sunscreen Composition 1, these results indicate that there is an 80% reduction in skin penetration of the florescent dye when using Sunscreen Composition 2.


Thus, in summary, these experimental results show that the encapsulated formulation of Sunscreen Composition 2 reduced the concentration of sunscreen at the skin surface by 80%, reduced the sunscreen active agent dose absorbed into the live layers of the epidermis by 80% and reduced sunscreen active agent availability to the skin surface so that SPF cannot diffuse into the skin.


Example 8: Product Comparison

An assessment was conducted to determine the amount of active sunscreen agent needed in a sunscreen compositions to achieve an average SPF value of 50. Six sunscreen compositions were assessed. Composition 1 was a sunscreen lotion composition disclosed herein comprising about 0.15% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising a silicone oil, about 0.2% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising a shea oil, about 11% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising about 65% of an octocrylene and about 35% of avobenzone, about 8% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising octinoxate, about 3% of an acrylate copolymer (DERMACRYL® AQF), about 3.5% capryllic capric triglyceride, and about 2% dimethicone-vinyldimethyl trimethylsiloxysilicate-dimethicone crosspolymer and about 2.5% acrylate-sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer-based thickening agent including isohexadecane and polysorbate 80 (SIMLGEL® EG). Compositions 2-6 were commercially available sunscreen products having an SPF 50 value. Analysis of all six compositions revealed that to achieve an SPF 50, Composition 1 required about 13% by weight active sunscreen agents in an encapsulated form (FIG. 4). On the other hand, Compositions 2-6 required from about 22% to about 29% by weight active sunscreen agents to achieve a SPF value of 50 (FIG. 4). These results indicate that the sunscreen composition disclosed herein increases the efficacy of a UV absorber by at least 70%.


Example 9: Arachnid and Insect Repellancy Assay

Experiments were conducted to assess the mosquito repellency of compositons disclosed herein using two different assays.


To conduct a tick repellent assay, a 4 cm×8 cm basket with a 4 cm×4 cm opening in the bottom is suspended ovr a petri dish containing 10 Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Brown Dog Tick). A 4 cm×4 cm filer paper is attached to a 4 cm×8 cm paper and placed at the bottom of the basket so that the 4 cm×4 cm filer paper cover the 4 cm×4 cm opening located in the basket's bottom. A sample of blood is placed within the 4 cm×4 cm area of the filter paper. For the control composition, the filter paper is moistened with water and the number and of ticks attached to the bottom of the basket and the location distance from the 4 cm×4 cm filter paper was assessed during a 10 minute time period at 3 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes. For the test compositions, the filter paper is treated by gently applying a roll-on applicator containing the test composition and the number and of ticks attached to the bottom of the basket and the location distance from the 4 cm×4 cm filter paper was assessed during a 10 minute time period at 3 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes. Test composition 110216 is a lotion composition comprising about 14% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising about 94% Lemon Eucalyptus oil and about 6% of a polymer, 20% geraniol, 3% of a film former (DERMACRYL® E), about 1% fragrance and about 32% water. The data is shown in Table 17. The test composition shows a significant repellent activity compared to the control. Alternatively, tick repellency testing can be done using Test composition 100316 or Test composition 113016Z discussed below.

To conduct an AEDSAE 16 assay, a mosquito cage is set up with 25 female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The top lid of the cage has a 2.5″ by 6″ opening in the center. A collagen membrane is place over the opening and is used as the test surface because it mimics human skin. A test subject's forearm is then positioned over the opening. Mesh is placed on the top side of the test surface to prevent direct contact of the test surface with the test subject's arm and disposable wood spacers are placed on top of the top cover to elevate the test subject's arm from the test substance and to prevent the mosquitoes from being able to feed on the test subject. Pre-treatment landing and probing numbers were obtained by counting the number of mosquitos that landed and probed the collagen membrane during a 5 minute time period. Treatment landing and probing numbers were obtained as follows: for the control composition, the collagen membrance is moistened with water and landing and probing numbers were obtained by counting the number of mosquitos that landed and probed the treated collagen membrane during a 5 minute time period; for the test compositions, the collagen membrane is treated by gently applying a roll-on applicator containing the test composition and landing and probing numbers were obtained by counting the number of mosquitos that landed and probed the treated collagen membrane during a 5 minute time period. Test composition 100316 is a lotion composition comprising about 20% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising about 47% Lemon Eucalyptus oil, about 47% IR3535 and about 6% of a polymer, 3% of a film former (DERMACRYL® AQF), about 3% fragrance and about 40% water. Test composition 113016Z is a lotion composition comprising about 20% of a cellulose encapsulate comprising about 94% Lemon Eucalyptus oil and about 6% of a polymer, 3% of a film former (DERMACRYL® AQF), about 1% fragrance and about 44% water. Landing and probing numbers were collected at 1 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours after treatment of the collagen membrane. The percent landing and probing numbers were calculated by comparing the number of landing and probes during the pre-treatment evaluation to the number of landing and probes during the treatment evaluation at all three time intervals. The data is shown in Table 18. Both test compositions show a significant repellent activity compared to the control. Alternatively, mosquito repellency testing can be done using Test composition 110216 discussed above.

In closing, it is to be understood that although aspects of the present specification are highlighted by referring to specific embodiments, one skilled in the art will readily appreciate that these disclosed embodiments are only illustrative of the principles of the subject matter disclosed herein. Therefore, it should be understood that the disclosed subject matter is in no way limited to a particular compound, composition, article, apparatus, methodology, protocol, and/or reagent, etc., described herein, unless expressly stated as such. In addition, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that certain changes, modifications, permutations, alterations, additions, subtractions and sub-combinations thereof can be made in accordance with the teachings herein without departing from the spirit of the present specification. It is therefore intended that the following appended claims and claims hereafter introduced are interpreted to include all such changes, modifications, permutations, alterations, additions, subtractions and sub-combinations as are within their true spirit and scope.


Certain embodiments of the present invention are described herein, including the best mode known to the inventors for carrying out the invention. Of course, variations on these described embodiments will become apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art upon reading the foregoing description. The inventor expects skilled artisans to employ such variations as appropriate, and the inventors intend for the present invention to be practiced otherwise than specifically described herein. Accordingly, this invention includes all modifications and equivalents of the subject matter recited in the claims appended hereto as permitted by applicable law. Moreover, any combination of the above-described embodiments in all possible variations thereof is encompassed by the invention unless otherwise indicated herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by context.


Groupings of alternative embodiments, elements, or steps of the present invention are not to be construed as limitations. Each group member may be referred to and claimed individually or in any combination with other group members disclosed herein. It is anticipated that one or more members of a group may be included in, or deleted from, a group for reasons of convenience and/or patentability. When any such inclusion or deletion occurs, the specification is deemed to contain the group as modified thus fulfilling the written description of all Markush groups used in the appended claims.


Unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing a characteristic, item, quantity, parameter, property, term, and so forth used in the present specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” As used herein, the term “about” means that the characteristic, item, quantity, parameter, property, or term so qualified encompasses a range of plus or minus ten percent above and below the value of the stated characteristic, item, quantity, parameter, property, or term. Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary. For instance, as mass spectrometry instruments can vary slightly in determining the mass of a given analyte, the term “about” in the context of the mass of an ion or the mass/charge ratio of an ion refers to +/−0.50 atomic mass unit. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical indication should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques.


Use of the terms “may” or “can” in reference to an embodiment or aspect of an embodiment also carries with it the alternative meaning of “may not” or “cannot.” As such, if the present specification discloses that an embodiment or an aspect of an embodiment may be or can be included as part of the inventive subject matter, then the negative limitation or exclusionary proviso is also explicitly meant, meaning that an embodiment or an aspect of an embodiment may not be or cannot be included as part of the inventive subject matter. In a similar manner, use of the term “optionally” in reference to an embodiment or aspect of an embodiment means that such embodiment or aspect of the embodiment may be included as part of the inventive subject matter or may not be included as part of the inventive subject matter. Whether such a negative limitation or exclusionary proviso applies will be based on whether the negative limitation or exclusionary proviso is recited in the claimed subject matter.


Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and values setting forth the broad scope of the invention are approximations, the numerical ranges and values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical range or value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements. Recitation of numerical ranges of values herein is merely intended to serve as a shorthand method of referring individually to each separate numerical value falling within the range. Unless otherwise indicated herein, each individual value of a numerical range is incorporated into the present specification as if it were individually recited herein.


The terms “a,” “an,” “the” and similar references used in the context of describing the present invention (especially in the context of the following claims) are to be construed to cover both the singular and the plural, unless otherwise indicated herein or clearly contradicted by context. Further, ordinal indicators—such as “first,” “second,” “third,” etc.—for identified elements are used to distinguish between the elements, and do not indicate or imply a required or limited number of such elements, and do not indicate a particular position or order of such elements unless otherwise specifically stated. All methods described herein can be performed in any suitable order unless otherwise indicated herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by context. The use of any and all examples, or exemplary language (e.g., “such as”) provided herein is intended merely to better illuminate the present invention and does not pose a limitation on the scope of the invention otherwise claimed. No language in the present specification should be construed as indicating any non-claimed element essential to the practice of the invention.


When used in the claims, whether as filed or added per amendment, the open-ended transitional term “comprising” (and equivalent open-ended transitional phrases thereof like including, containing and having) encompasses all the expressly recited elements, limitations, steps and/or features alone or in combination with unrecited subject matter; the named elements, limitations and/or features are essential, but other unnamed elements, limitations and/or features may be added and still form a construct within the scope of the claim. Specific embodiments disclosed herein may be further limited in the claims using the closed-ended transitional phrases “consisting of” or “consisting essentially of” in lieu of or as an amended for “comprising.” When used in the claims, whether as filed or added per amendment, the closed-ended transitional phrase “consisting of” excludes any element, limitation, step, or feature not expressly recited in the claims. The closed-ended transitional phrase “consisting essentially of” limits the scope of a claim to the expressly recited elements, limitations, steps and/or features and any other elements, limitations, steps and/or features that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristic(s) of the claimed subject matter. Thus, the meaning of the open-ended transitional phrase “comprising” is being defined as encompassing all the specifically recited elements, limitations, steps and/or features as well as any optional, additional unspecified ones. The meaning of the closed-ended transitional phrase “consisting of” is being defined as only including those elements, limitations, steps and/or features specifically recited in the claim whereas the meaning of the closed-ended transitional phrase “consisting essentially of” is being defined as only including those elements, limitations, steps and/or features specifically recited in the claim and those elements, limitations, steps and/or features that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristic(s) of the claimed subject matter. Therefore, the open-ended transitional phrase “comprising” (and equivalent open-ended transitional phrases thereof) includes within its meaning, as a limiting case, claimed subject matter specified by the closed-ended transitional phrases “consisting of” or “consisting essentially of.” As such embodiments described herein or so claimed with the phrase “comprising” are expressly or inherently unambiguously described, enabled and supported herein for the phrases “consisting essentially of” and “consisting of.”


All patents, patent publications, and other publications referenced and identified in the present specification are individually and expressly incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for the purpose of describing and disclosing, for example, the compositions and methodologies described in such publications that might be used in connection with the present invention. These publications are provided solely for their disclosure prior to the filing date of the present application. Nothing in this regard should be construed as an admission that the inventors are not entitled to antedate such disclosure by virtue of prior invention or for any other reason. All statements as to the date or representation as to the contents of these documents is based on the information available to the applicants and does not constitute any admission as to the correctness of the dates or contents of these documents.


Lastly, the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, which is defined solely by the claims. Accordingly, the present invention is not limited to that precisely as shown and described.
