AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing antimicrobial compositions kill both harmful and beneficial microbes on the skin, leading to imbalanced skin microbiomes and malodor issues.
Method used
Niacinamide or its analogues selectively reduce harmful microbes like S. hominis while sparing beneficial microbes like S. epidermidis, achieving a 2:1 to 5:1 ratio of reduction, thereby maintaining microbiome balance and reducing malodor.
Benefits of technology
Niacinamide effectively reduces harmful microbes while preserving beneficial ones, maintaining skin hygiene and odor control.
