Sun Protectant Composition And Method

US Patent:
4806344, Feb 21, 1989
Filed:
Jan 5, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/000635
Inventors:
Frances C. Gaskin - Albany NY
International Classification:
A61K 740
A61K 742
A61K 744
A61K 907
US Classification:
424 59
Abstract:
The invention relates to a composition and method of dissolving melanin in a composition for the purpose of photoprotection of the human epidermis from exposure to the sun's harmful rays. The composition consists of melanin, as an active ingredient, sunscreens, vitamins and emollients. These ingredients are rapid blended by ultrasound for 2-3 hours to form a mixture that enhances the sun protective factor when applied topically.

Compositions And Method Of Strengthening Hair

US Patent:
5006331, Apr 9, 1991
Filed:
Oct 26, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/263039
Inventors:
Frances C. Gaskin - Albany NY
International Classification:
A61K 706
A61K 708
A61K 711
US Classification:
424 70
Abstract:
Solubilized melanin based compositions supply melanin to skin, scalp and/or hair. The compositions consist of melanin, as an active ingredient, and a substance to solubilize the melanin blended together in a vehicle suitable for topical application. A melanin-based composition applied to the skin provides photoprotection of the human epidermis from exposure to ultraviolet rays. A melanin-based composition applied to wounds in the skin accelerates healing of the wounds. A melanin-based composition applied to the hair and scalp strengthens the hair.

Composition And Method For Protecting The Skin From Uv-Rays

Methods And Compositions For Reducing Pyrimidine Photoproducts

US Patent:
5629314, May 13, 1997
Filed:
May 15, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/440626
Inventors:
Frances C. Gaskin - Albany NY
International Classification:
A61K 31505
A61K 742
US Classification:
514256
Abstract:
This invention is directed to a method for reducing pyrimidine photoproducts comprising applying an effective amount of melanin to human skin prior to exposure to ultraviolet rays, wherein said melanin is in a vehicle suitable for topical application and measuring the amount of pyrimidine photoproducts as compared to a control sample. Another embodiment of this invention is where the vehicle is an ointment, cream or lotion. For the purpose of this invention, measuring also means determining, and/or quantifying. This invention is also directed to a method for reducing pyrimidine photoproducts comprising applying an effective amount of melanin and solubilizing substance to human skin prior to exposure to ultraviolet rays, wherein said substance for solubilizing melanin is selected from the group consisting of triethanolamine and trypsin, wherein said solubilizing substance is present in an amount sufficient to solubilize the melanin thereby producing melanin solubilized by said substance, wherein said melanin and solubilizing substance is in a vehicle suitable for topical application and measuring the amount of pyrimidine photoproducts as compared to a control sample. Another embodiment of this invention is where the vehicle is an ointment, cream or lotion. For the purpose of this invention, measuring also means determining, and/or quantifying.
