EXAMPLES
Example 1: Preparation of Di-Rhamnolipids

A fermentation with a recombinant strain Pseudomonas putida KT2440S pBBR1MCS2-Plac-rhIABC-T-Ptac-rhIC-T was carried out. The construction of the strain was described in US2014296168. The preculture in the shake flask was carried out as described in WO2012013554. For the main culture, a mineral medium (M9) was likewise used. The fermentation takes place in a glucose-limited fed-batch process in a 2 litre fermenter. The feeding in of glucose was regulated by reference to the dissolved-oxygen signal. The oxygen partial pressure of the fermentation broth was regulated at 20% saturation via the stirrer speed. The pH was regulated to 7 via a pH electrode and addition of 2M sulphuric acid or of a 20% by weight ammonia solution. In order to prevent excessive foaming of the fermentation broth, the antifoam DOW Corning 1500 was metered in as required. The fermentation was conducted over 4 days to a dry biomass of 15 WI. The rhamnolipid concentration was determined by HPLC and was 9.8 g/l. After separating off the cells by means of centrifugation at 10 000 g, the fermentation broth was adjusted to a pH of 3.1 by adding concentrated H2SO4. Renewed centrifugation gave a pasty solid concentrate with an RL fraction of 45% by weight and with a viscosity of >10 000 mPas. With continuous stirring, a 50% strength by weight aqueous KOH solution was added to the pasty suspension of the concentrated rhamnolipid precipitate and a pH of 6 was established. The pasty mass liquefied at this point with an accompanying sharp drop in viscosity. The suspension gave rise to a clear solution. By adding water, the solution was adjusted to an active content of 35% by weight. The rhamnolipid purity was >90% by weight, based on the dry mass. For the synthesis the rhamnolipid was freeze-dried.

Example 8: Application Effects

In order to measure the influence of the specified structures on producing underarm sweating and odor. The following application tests with the formulations according to the invention were carried out.


The following formulations were prepared 24 hours before use. Typically, 500 g of formulation were prepared in a 800 mL beaker. If ingredients/phases need to be heated, a water bath was used. Mixing was done by a four-blade-stirrer, driven by a Eurostar 20 digital by IKA (IKAWerke, Staufen, Germany) if not otherwise stated.


Example 8.1

500 g of the formulation were prepared as follows: Oils (Phase A) and aqueous phase (Phase B, part of the water, butylene glycol and, if indicated the inventive structures) were mixed separately and heated up under stirring to 80° C. The rest of the water and PEG-6000 Distearate were also mixed separately and heated to 80° C.


Phase B was slowly added to phase A while stirred with a four-blade-stirrer at 250 rpm in a 800 mL beaker within 5 minutes. Then, phase C was added within 1 minute, the mixture is still mixed and kept at 80° C. during the process. After addition of phase C, the mixture was stirred well (1000 rpm, 3 minutes), and then allowed to cool down to 40° C. with gentle stirring (100 rpm). Phase D was added at 40° C. under well stirring (1000 rpm, 3 minutes), phase E was then added under stirring (1 minute, 250 rpm). The whole mixture then needs to cool down to room temperature under well stirring (1000 rpm).

Formulations 8.1.3 to 8.1.7 are formulations according to the instant invention






Example 8.2

The following formulations were prepared:


Water (phase A) was heated to 75° C. to dissolve the Xanthan Gum (phase B) while stirring (at least 15 minutes, 1000 rpm). The mixture was then cooled to room temperature (100 rpm) to add the ethanol (Phase C). Then, all other ingredients (Phase D) can be added under slight mixing (100 rpm-250 rpm).

Formulations 8.2.2 to 8.2.7 are formulations according to the instant invention






Example 8.3

This deo-stick formulation was prepared 48 hours before application to allow the formulation to solidify completely.


Glycol, glycerine and water (Phase A) were heated to 60° C. and the sodium hydroxide was added (phase B). This mixture was then heated under stirring (100 rpm) to 90° C. and the fatty acids are added (phase C). The mixture was mixed at 90° C. until it appears homogeneously (typically 60 minutes, 100 rpm). The pH of the formulation was checked (dilution of a small part of the formulation with water), pH-value should be between pH 8 and pH 9. The hot mixture was then filled into deo stick tubes and allowed to solidify at room temperature within 24 hours to give light yellowish pasty sticks.

Example 8.4

After phases A and B were prepared separately at room temperature, phase A was added to phase B under stirring (300 rpm, 1 minute). The mixture was then homogenized (5 minutes, 1800 rpm) to obtain a lotion. Then the polymers were added (Phase C) under stirring, followed by a short homogenization step (0.5 minutes, 300 rpm, 1 minute 1800 rpm). Finally, the sodium hydroxide was added (phase D) under stirring (10 minutes, 500 rpm) to obtain a lotion.

Example 8.5

The oil phase (phase A) and the aqueous phase (phase B) were mixed separately and homogenized by a spatula while being heated up to 75° C. Then, phase A was added to phase B while stirring (2 minutes, 500 rpm) followed by a homogenization step (3 minutes, 1800 rpm). After obtaining a milky lotion, the mixture was cooled down while being stirred at 250 rpm.

Example 8.6

Formulating this water-in-oil emulsion requires the help of a ultra-turrax® (T 18 digital ultra-turrax, Ika, Ika Werke, Staufen, Germany).


The liquid components of phase A were mixed with a spatula. Then first the zinc stearate was incorporated into the oil phase by the ultra turrax (3 minutes, 10.000 rpm) before the Aerosil was added in similar way (3 minutes, 10.000 rpm). The aqueous phase (phase B) was also mixed with a spatula at room temperature and then slowly added in phase A with minimum input of mixing (2 minutes, 3000 rpm). After complete addition of phase B, the white emulsion was homogenized for short time (1 minute, 10.000 rpm) and filled into applicators.

This wash lotion was free of perfumes to avoid an influence of artificial odors on the panel results.


The panelists were asked to clean their armpits as usual in their daily routine, however, the panelists used the perfume free wash lotion provided. After cleaning, the formulations described in the section above were applied. The formulations were packed in neutral containers which were randomly labeled. Thus, the inventive formulations were applied also randomly under the left or the right arm. The panelists were also advised to use no additional perfume. The panelists applied the formulations in the morning and the degree of malodor was accessed after 8-10 hours after application. The panelists followed the normal working routine, the artificial sweat generation in hot rooms was not used since the formulations were evaluated in pairwise discrimination.


Six trained examiners evaluated the malodor intensity scale of the panelists after 8-10 hours. The ratings were given according to the malodor intensity scale ranging from 0 to 10. (see IFSCC Monograph, Number 6, “Antiperspirants and Deodorants: Priciples of Underarm Technology” Copyright© International Federation of the Societies of Cosmetic Chemists 1998; ISBN 1-870228-19-7 and Table 2).


The examiners scored the odor of the armpits of the panelists, the difference of the evaluation were calculated per examiner to visualize the pairwise difference perceived by the examiner. After all six examiners gave their evaluation on one panelists, the difference of the pairwise evaluation is averaged. A difference of the average of 1 is likely to be experienced by an untrained person, whereas a difference of 2 or more is clearly recognized.

Results: It is obvious that the formulation with 20% aluminium salt (8.1.1) outperformed the formulation with 10% salt (8.1.2).






Example 9.2

The next set of experiments was made in order to see if the inventive structures can compensate the lower level of aluminium salt. Thus formulation 8.1.1 (20% aluminium salt) was tested against formulation 8.1.4 (10% aluminium salt+inventive structure 4)
