3 1. Preservation: The Chemist Parabens: the most frequently used preservatives in cosmetic and beauty care products Effective Low use levels Safety data History of use Low cost Low irritation potential Synthetic Negative press

4 1. Preservation: The Consumer Demonisation of parabens and synthetic preservatives in the media Instigated by a research paper from the University of Reading Darbre PD. Et al (2004) Concentrations of parabens in human breast tumours, [1] Esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid (parabens) detected in breast tumour samples Low threshold study: Limited test group (20 breast tumour samples) No control samples No male samples Evidence did not imply that parabens cause abnormalities

5 [2] Media Reaction Sensationalism Mis-Quote Demonisation

6 2. Changes within the Personal Care Market March 2011 Denmark enforces a ban on propyl and butyl paraben, their isoforms and their salts in cosmetic products for children up to three years of age. [3] May 2012 The French Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament (ANSM) questions the safety of Phenoxyethanol for young children. [4] July 2013 The British Association of Dermatologists (BAD) presents research highlighting an epidemic of contact dermatitis due to two synthetic preservatives, Methylisothiazolinone and Methylchloroisothiazolinone / Methylisothiazolinone. [5] October 2013 The European Commission calls for all data on Phenoxyethanol and o-phenylphenol. Their purpose is to gather all scientific information in preparation for the Scientific Committee for Consumer Products (SCCS), who will publish its opinions on these two ingredients. [4] December The personal care association, issues an industry-wide recommendation to discontinue the use of the preservative Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) in leave-on skin cosmetics and personal care products.

7 3. The Antimicrobial Market Alcohols Example: Benzyl Alcohol Organic Acids / Salts Example: Potassium Sorbate Multifunctional Additives Example: Caprylyl Glycol Natural Flavours and Fragrance Example: Parfum (p-anisic Acid)

8 3. The Antimicrobial Market

9 4. Active Micro Technologies Peptide System ACTIVE MICRO TECHNOLOGIES (AMT) FOCUS: To identify and develop unique antimicrobial ingredients GOAL: To provide antimicrobials that are effective, safe, and stable INNOVATION: - cosmetic active benefits - restricting microbial activity

10 4. Active Micro Technologies Peptide System Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) Family Produce novel antimicrobial peptides Bacteriocins Proteinaceous materials Inhibit growth of bacterial strains Structurally, functionally, and ecologically diverse

11 5. M15008-Leucidal Liquid INCI: Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate The next generation of proactive, innovative and efficacious antimicrobial systems

12 5. M15008-Leucidal Liquid Mechanism of Action LAB family Leuconostoc kimchii produces lactic acid Restricts the growth of microorganisms by acidifying their environment Fermentation of Leuconostoc in a defined growth medium containing Radish creates bacteriocins Provides broad spectrum antimicrobial activity Proven conditioning benefits Modulated Activity Willow Bark Extract is added facilitates controlled cell lysis Ensures the release of the antimicrobial peptides for maximised activity

13 5. M15008-Leucidal Liquid Challenge Test in a Cream Formulation MIC Data MIC % E. coli 1.60 S. aureus 0.80 P. aeruginosa 1.60 C. albicans 0.80 A. brasiliensis 2.40 Table 1: Challenge Test Results for 2.00% M15008-Leucidal Liquid in O/W Cream formulation inoculated on day 0 and re-inoculated on day 28

16 6. M15019-Leucidal Liquid SF INCI: Lactobacillus Ferment The next generation of proactive, innovative and efficacious antimicrobial systems

17 6. M15019-Leucidal Liquid SF Mechanism of Action LAB family Lactobacillus bulgaricus produces lactic acid Restricts the growth of microorganisms by acidifying their environment Fermentation of Lactobacillus creates bacteriocins Provides broad spectrum antimicrobial activity Proven conditioning benefits Modulated Activity Lysozyme is added to the ferment filtrate facilitates controlled cell lysis Ensures the release of the antimicrobial peptides for maximised activity
