Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to formulations containing active oxygen compounds, including active oxygen and other active ingredients and adjuvants, for the care and / or maintenance of the health of the skin and integumentary system on the surface of the body and in the ears of living organisms, as well as the nails (fingernails and toenails), and the oral cavity, including the mucous membranes, teeth, interdental spaces, and periodontal tissues (gums) in the oral cavity. The present invention also relates to devices or applicators for using such formulations. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 describes a preparation with antibacterial effect in the form of a skin care ointment, gel, or dressing, which contains a photocatalyst and a substance acting as an electron donor. When exposed to light in the presence of oxygen, for example in ambient air, the photocatalyst causes the conversion of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide, which acts locally in situ (at or near the desired local action site on the skin) against any bacteria present.

[0003] US Patent No. 5,999,633 discloses a stable peroxide formulation, as well as a method for its use and an applicator or application device. The formulation described contains stabilized hydrogen peroxide and 2-propanol and is used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including warts, Condylomata acuminata or papillomata acuminata (i.e., anogenital warts), seborrheic keratosis, mollusca contagiosa or molluscum contagiosum (i.e., benign skin infections), and acrochordons (i.e., benign skin formations).

[0004] Patent document 3 describes the preparation of an organic solvent solution of anhydrous hydrogen peroxide for therapeutic and cosmetic purposes. The solution contains 1% to 20% by weight of hydrogen peroxide and less than 1% by weight of water and is used for treating acne, skin diseases or disorders, ulcers, for skin whitening and / or skin disinfection. Cosmetics containing the solution are used, inter alia, for lightening, bleaching and / or oxidative dyeing of hair and / or for hair straightening and similar purposes.

[0005] Patent document 4 discloses, inter alia, formulations for toothpaste, mouthrinse and gels containing hydrogen peroxide, cetylpyridinium chloride and lycopene, the formulations being intended for oral care and, if necessary, for tooth whitening.

[0006] US Pat. No. 5,399,633 and US Pat. No. 5,499,663 describe formulations and methods for the treatment of fungal nail (finger and toenail) infections caused by the fungus Trichophyton rubrum and the mold Aspergillus niger. The formulations described, in the form of aqueous solutions, contain, in addition to hydrogen peroxide, glucose oxidase and D-glucose, which release hydrogen peroxide in two stages to treat fungal infections of fingernails and toenails. Both of these applications disclose storage-stable antimicrobial formulations at pH values ​​ranging from about 4 to 8, which contain, in addition to D-glucose, other sugars selected from sucrose, fructose, and / or maltose. Hydrogen peroxide is released from the formulation in two stages: storage-stable hydrogen peroxide is bioavailable for immediate release in the formulation at a concentration of at least 10 mg per liter and for sustained release over 24 hours upon rehydration of the formulation. This formulation, which penetrates and penetrates the nail plate (fingernail or toenail), has antifungal and antisporic effects.

[0007] No solution to the technical problem described herein has been found in the published patent literature, which solves the above-mentioned problem by the preparation, composition and form of the formulation in the manner and combination of technical features that are sought to be solved by the present invention as described herein and defined in the claims, i.e. by the combination of formulation ingredients and the form of the formulation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] The forms of the formulations according to the invention and devices or applicators for applying the formulations to a target site in an organism, within the meaning of the described invention, which are shown and / or explained diagrammatically in the description of the drawings and / or in other sections of the specification of the invention, represent only a part of the possible examples of the forms of the formulations according to the invention.

[0014] Explaining new solutions to technical problems The present invention relates to hydrogen peroxide (chemical formula: H 2 O 2 The present invention solves the technical problem posed by the preparation of stable formulations containing as the key or main active ingredient a stabilized active oxygen compound obtained by a special production and purification technological process from . ) and used for the care of target areas of living organisms, their maintenance and preservation of their health. The target areas of living organisms defined within the meaning of the present invention are preferentially the skin, nails (fingernails and toenails) and / or oral cavity, as well as the associated tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems, as known in the current state of the art.

[0015] The subject of the present invention are various types and forms of formulations, with regard to their composition, i.e., formulation components, and physical form, such as solutions, mouth rinses, sprays, gels, pastes, emulsions, lotions, milks and / or creams, as well as various formulation forms with controlled release of the active substances and components of the formulation, selected from the controlled release formulations known and used in the state of the art, among which are preferably liposomes, micelles and film dressings.

[0016] Furthermore, a subject of the present invention is a formulation according to the invention that is contained or incorporated in an applicator or device for applying the formulation onto and / or into a target area of ​​an organism, among which patches, dental showers, toothbrushes and interdental toothbrushes.

[0017] The formulations according to the invention comprise a stabilized active oxygen compound as the key or primary active ingredient or activator, in addition to which ionized colloidal silver and / or ionized colloidal gold are present as a second key active ingredient or activator in the formulation, as well as other ingredients which within the meaning of the invention are referred to as inactive ingredients of the formulation, and the remaining ingredients as auxiliary ingredients of the formulation.

[0018] The inactive and auxiliary ingredients modify the composition of the formulation to enhance the effect of the formulation according to the invention for the purpose of providing care, maintaining and preserving the health of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and nails (fingernails and toenails) and providing the health of their tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems, and / or for the purpose of providing care, maintaining and preserving the health of the oral cavity, including the teeth and periodontal tissues (gums), and providing the health of the oral and dental tissues, mucous membranes, systems and structures.

[0019] Preparations for the care, maintenance and preservation of the health of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and finger and toenails, as well as their tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems, within the meaning of the present invention, have the form of solutions, sprays, gels, emulsions, lotions, milks, creams, film dressings, liposomes and / or micelles, if appropriate contained in an application patch for applying the preparation to and / or within the target area of ​​an organism.

[0020] The preparations for the care, maintenance and preservation of the health of the oral cavity, including the teeth, periodontal tissues and interdental spaces, and / or of the tissues, mucosa, systems and structures of the oral cavity, have the form of solutions, mouthwashes, sprays, gels, pastes and / or emulsions and / or preferentially in the form of controlled release preparations, including film dressings, liposomes and / or micelles, and are optionally included in patches, dental showers, toothbrushes and / or interdental brushes for applying said preparations to and / or within the target area of ​​the organism. In addition to the preferred preparations in which the active ingredient is released in a controlled manner, there are other similar preparations within the meaning of the present invention that are known in the current state of the art to allow a controlled release of the active ingredient.

[0021] The target area of ​​an organism to which the formulation comprising an active oxygen compound is administered according to the present invention is any area of ​​an organism that the formulation activates so that the formulation provides care for the target area of ​​an organism and / or maintains and / or preserves its health.Such areas of an organism preferably include the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and nails (fingernails and toenails), as well as the tissues, mucous membranes, tissue structures, and systems that constitute the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and nails of the fingers and toenails, and the oral cavity, including teeth, periodontium (gums), and interdental spaces, and / or the tissues, mucous membranes, systems, and structures of the oral cavity, as known in the current state of the art.Such areas of an organism most preferably include the target tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and systems of an organism.

[0022] A living organism within the meaning of the present invention is preferably a human body. In alternative embodiments of the present invention, the living organism can also be an animal organism, preferably an animal organism having tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems within the meaning of the present invention.

[0023] Controlled release of an active ingredient or active agent within the meaning of the present invention means that the active ingredient is released as defined by the present invention at a specific site in a target area of ​​an organism and / or in target tissues, mucosa, structures and systems of an organism, and that the release occurs at a specific time or time interval and / or according to a specific time pattern.

[0024] Release occurring at a specific time or time interval within the meaning of the present invention means that the active ingredient is released at the exact time desired by the user of the formulation, which occurs when the formulation according to the invention is incorporated into a dental shower, a toothbrush and / or an interdental toothbrush. The release of the formulation is controlled by the user by pressing a push button on the brush, which allows the formulation to flow and / or be applied via the brush nozzle directly to the placement of the brush, as will be explained in the examples (examples of embodiment).

[0025] Within the meaning of the present invention, the release of the active ingredient in a specific time pattern preferably means that the active ingredient is released when certain conditions are met or that the active ingredient is released in a delayed manner.

[0026] Alternative embodiments of the present invention also provide time-based release patterns of the active ingredient, as well as any other active ingredient release patterns selected from those known in the prior art, preferably in the pharmaceutical, medical, cosmetic and / or veterinary fields.

[0027] The release of the active ingredient when certain conditions are met within the meaning of the present invention is the release of the active ingredient over the time interval during which the formulation according to the present invention is in contact with the target area of ​​an organism, most preferably the time interval during which it is in contact with the target tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems of an organism.

[0028] The delayed release of an active ingredient within the meaning of the present invention is the release of the active ingredient over the time interval during which the preparation according to the present invention is in contact with the target area of ​​an organism, most preferably the target tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems of the organism, and at the same time, such release is regulated by the components of the preparation so that the active ingredient and the components are not released immediately, but delayed. For example, this is possible by the specific preparation forms and components known in the state of the art for the active ingredient selected in the preparation according to the present invention. These are preferably preparations in the form of liposomes, micelles, patches and film dressings. Preparations in the form of liposomes and / or micelles are so-called micropreparations according to the present invention that contain the important active ingredient, i.e., active oxygen compounds, in a gel medium or gel medium within the meaning of the present invention. Such micropreparations in the form of liposomes or micelles are then incorporated into macropreparations according to the present invention. Macropreparations are preparations within the meaning of the present invention that contain the other components of the preparation according to the present invention, except for the active oxygen compounds in the micropreparations. Alternatively, in liposomes and micelles, instead of hydrogen peroxide at a weight concentration of 1% to 6% by weight relative to the total formulation (hereinafter also referred to as weight %), benzoyl peroxide at a weight concentration of 5% to 20% by weight or carbamide peroxide at a weight concentration of 5% to 20% by weight can be included as the main or important active ingredient of the formulation. In order to release the active oxygen compound more quickly, a peroxidase enzyme can be present in the liposome shell or membrane, as shown in Figure 1, if necessary.

[0029] In these formulations, the delayed release of the active ingredient is preferably regulated by the contact of the patch contact surface, film dressing, liposomes, and / or micelles with the functional target site, i.e., the target area of ​​an organism, and the passage and / or diffusion of the formulation and its active ingredients and components over and / or within the target area of ​​an organism, under the influence of substances such as components of exudates and under the influence of factors such as the ambient temperature at or in the target area of ​​an organism.

[0030] The film dressing according to the invention, originally in the form of a cream, paste, gel and / or other similar type of formulation according to the invention, is applied to the desired functional site, i.e. the target site of an organism, and upon contact with said site, hardens to form a dressing or coating, which acts on said site for a specific time interval ranging from 2 minutes to 5 hours, preferably from 5 minutes to 3 hours, more preferably from 30 minutes, most preferably from 5 minutes to 15 minutes, during which the active ingredients and components from the dressing or coating pass and / or diffuse over and / or into the target area of ​​the organism. At the functional target site or the target site of the organism in contact with adjacent elements, i.e. the environment on or in the target site of the organism, such as saliva and / or air, and micro-ambient temperature, ingredients are selected from ingredients known and used in the current state of the art in the pharmaceutical and / or medical field and described herein in the examples of preparations in gel form, which allow the formation of a film dressing at the target area of ​​the organism, and thus the formation of the holder part of the film dressing, to produce a cream, paste, gel and / or other similar preparation. Preparations within the meaning of the present invention are also included in the holder part. When the applied gel, paste, cream and / or other similar preparation comes into contact with the adjacent elements, a flexible film-like layer, which is most preferably water-resistant and / or hydrophobic, is formed on the outside of the dressing, while on the inside, the dressing, which is preferably hydrophilic, comes into contact with the functional site or the target area of ​​the organism, so that the active ingredients and components pass through and diffuse on and / or in the target area of ​​the organism. Target areas for this organism are within the oral cavity, e.g., sites of inflammation, oral ulcers, lesions, and / or tissue wounds, as well as target areas on the skin, nails (fingernails and toenails), and / or cuticle tissue, e.g., sites of inflammation, infection, lesions, and / or wounds in the skin, fingernails, and / or cuticle tissue, or tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and systems thereof.

[0031] According to the present invention, the patch consists of a holder and a pad or matrix attached to the holder and containing the formulation according to the present invention, including a formulation in the form of liposomes and / or micelles intended for delayed release of the active ingredient consisting of an active oxygen compound. The pad or matrix is ​​preferably attached to the middle area of ​​the patch, i.e. to the self-adhesive part attached at the outer edge of the patch, slightly away from the pad and surrounding it. The patch, its holder, pad and self-adhesive part may be of any shape and size. These shapes and sizes depend on the target area of ​​the organism to which the patch is to be applied. According to the present invention, the patch is preferably of any rectangular, square, circular, oval, triangular, trapezoidal and / or other similar shape, with one diameter ranging from 0.5 cm to 20 cm and at the same time the other diameter ranging from 0.5 cm to 15 cm. According to the present invention, the patch is more preferably of one diameter ranging from 1 cm to 10 cm and at the same time the other diameter ranging from 1 cm to 5 cm. According to the present invention, the patch further preferably has one diameter in the range of 1 cm to 8 cm, while the other diameter is in the range of 1 cm to 3 cm. According to the present invention, if the patch is circular in shape, the patch has a diameter of 5 cm, preferably a diameter of 4 cm, most preferably a diameter of 3 cm. For use in the oral cavity, the diameter of the circular patch is preferably in the range of 1 cm to 2.5 cm, most preferably in the range of 1.5 cm to 2 cm. The patch and its components including the patch holder, pad, and self-adhesive part are made from materials known and used in the current state of the art in the pharmaceutical field for manufacturing the patch and its components. Preferably, the patch holder is made from natural and / or artificial polymeric materials, the pad or matrix is ​​also made from natural and / or artificial polymeric materials, and the self-adhesive part attached to the holder at the edge of the patch is made from adhesive silicone and / or other similar materials, preferably polymeric materials, having adhesive properties to skin and mucous membranes. An example of a patch according to the present invention is shown in FIG. 5.

[0032] The preparations in the form of liposomes and / or micelles according to the invention allow the controlled release of active oxygen compounds. Liposomes, as shown in the schematic diagram of liposome structure 1, and micelles, as shown in the schematic diagram of micellar structure 3, have in their core, surrounded by a phospholipid shell or membrane, a micropreparation according to the invention comprising an active oxygen compound in a gel medium according to the invention, i.e. a preparation comprising, as a source of active oxygen compounds, hydrogen peroxide molecules at a concentration by weight of hydrogen peroxide of ≧1 wt.% to 6 wt.% relative to the total preparation, or alternatively benzoyl peroxide molecules at a concentration by weight of benzoyl peroxide of ≧5 wt.% to 20 wt.% relative to the total preparation, or even alternatively carbamide peroxide molecules at a concentration by weight of carbamide peroxide of ≧5 wt.% to 20 wt.% relative to the total preparation. The gel medium in the microformulations according to the invention, which is the adjacent medium of the active oxygen compounds in the microformulations, consists of ingredients according to the invention, among which preferably are hyaluronic acid, panthenol and various active ingredients of vegetable origin known and used in the current state of the art in the fields of cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food industry, these various active ingredients being preferably natural and of vegetable origin. These include, most preferably, ginger (Zingiber Officinale), daisy (Echinacea Purpurea), myrrh (Commiphora Abyssinica), marigold (Calendula Officinalis) and / or St. John's wort (Hypericum Perforatum) and other plant active ingredients used as active ingredients of botanical origin according to the current state of the art in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical and / or food industry. These are, most preferably, extracts from the abovementioned plants and / or their parts. Such active ingredients of botanical origin are highly preferably selected from industrially or otherwise prepared ones, for example combinations of plant extracts or parts thereof.They are marketed under different names depending on the manufacturer and have different effects on the target tissues, mucous membranes, structures and / or systems depending on the active ingredient, for example they are selected from the products under the trade name Actipone™ of the company Symrise AG. It contains the active ingredients of ginger (Zingiber officinale, i.e. the extract of its root), of purple daisy (Echinacea purpurea, i.e. the extract of its resin) and of myrrh or myrtle (Commiphora abyssinica, i.e. the extract of its resin), which in addition to these active ingredients also contain, inter alia, water, glycerine, i.e. glycerol, polysorbates, preservatives, sodium benzoate and / or potassium sorbate, which are recommended for use in concentrations of 0.02 wt.% to 0.65 wt.% of the formulation for anti-irritant or sedative effect, 1.25 wt.% for antioxidant effect and 1.05 wt.% to 4.20 wt.% for antimicrobial effect.

[0033] According to the present invention, in the liposomal and / or micelle macroformulations, preferably in the form of a gel, emulsion and / or cream, other components of the formulation within the meaning of the present invention are also present, i.e. other or other important active ingredients such as ionized colloidal silver and / or gold as defined in the present specification, as well as other ingredients, i.e. inactive ingredients of the formulation and remaining or auxiliary ingredients of the formulation.

[0034] According to the invention, liposomes preferably have a spherical shape and a bi- or multi-layer structure, i.e. a bi- or multi-layered shell or membrane surrounding a liposomal core. According to the invention, micelles preferably have a spherical shape and a unilamellar structure, i.e. a unilamellar shell or membrane surrounding a micellar core.

[0035] The envelope is made of phospholipid molecules. Each phospholipid molecule has a polar part, i.e. the so-called polar head 1, which has a hydrophilic nature, and two ends, i.e. the so-called hydrophobic tails 2, which are lipophilic or hydrophobic. The phospholipid molecules are structured and oriented in the liposomal membrane such that one membrane lamella is located on the outside of the liposome, while the polar heads of the liposome are located on the outside in succession, while the hydrophobic tails of the phospholipids oriented towards the core of the liposomal membrane are on the inside. The second membrane lamella of the liposome, i.e. the inner layer, has the polar heads located on the inside of the liposome, i.e. the nucleus or liposomal core in succession, and the hydrophobic tails of the phospholipids oriented towards the liposomal membrane core. Thus, the liposome has a hydrophilic layer, i.e. a hydrophilic microenvironment, on the outside of the liposome and on the nucleus / core of the liposome, and a hydrophobic layer, i.e. a hydrophobic microenvironment, within the liposomal membrane or in the so-called liposomal membrane core.

[0036] For example, a monolayer or unilamellar micelle envelope, as shown diagrammatically in Figure 4, consists of a series of contiguous phospholipid molecules oriented in space such that the hydrophilic heads 1 of the phospholipid molecules are on one side and the hydrophobic tails 2 of the molecules are on the other side when they contact each other, as shown diagrammatically in Figures 3 and 4. Thus, there is a hydrophilic microenvironment at the phospholipid heads 1 and a hydrophobic microenvironment at the tails 2.

[0037] For example, a bilayer liposomal envelope or membrane, as shown diagrammatically in FIG. 2, is composed of a series of inner and outer phospholipid molecules connected in series. The phospholipid molecules are oriented in space such that the hydrophilic heads 1 of the phospholipid molecules are on one side and the hydrophobic tails 2 of the molecules are on the other side, as shown diagrammatically in FIGS. 1 and 2. Thus, there is a hydrophilic microenvironment at the phospholipid heads 1 and a hydrophobic microenvironment at the tails 2. Thus, in a bilayer liposomal envelope as shown in FIG. 1, a hydrophilic environment is present at the liposomal core and on the liposomal periphery, while a hydrophobic environment in the inner layer of the membrane is present between the contacting hydrophobic tails of the phospholipids. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, a peroxidase enzyme 4 is also included in the hydrophobic environment of the bilayer liposomal envelope, as shown in FIG. 1.

[0038] The peroxidase enzyme according to the present invention is selected from peroxidase enzymes including myeloperoxidase, lactoperoxidase, horseradish peroxidase and other peroxidases known in the state of the art. These enzymes regulate the release rate of active oxygen compounds, which is accelerated in the presence of the enzyme. Basic examples include enzyme-free liposome formulations.

[0039] According to the present invention, in the micelle core, e.g. as in FIG. 3, or in the liposome core, e.g. as in FIG. 1, there is present the key active ingredient, i.e. the active oxygen compound in the gel medium 3 according to the present invention, the source of which is preferably hydrogen peroxide according to the present invention, alternatively benzoyl peroxide or carbamide peroxide.

[0040] Such formulations can be used in the oral cavity or on the skin, including its tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and systems. Liposomes with a bilayer, i.e. bilamellar, or multilamellar envelope structure, or micelles with a unilamellar membrane structure, allow for controlled release of active oxygen compounds. For example, in the oral cavity, this is achieved by the effect of the ambient temperature and saliva in the oral cavity on the liposomes, while on the skin, it is caused by the effect of the ambient temperature and exudates on the skin.

[0041] The subject of the invention described herein is a formulation comprising an active oxygen compound for the maintenance and preservation and / or care of the health of the skin, including subcutaneous tissue, nails (finger and toenails) and cuticle tissue, its tissues, mucous membranes, structures and systems, and for the maintenance and preservation and / or care of the health of the oral cavity, including teeth, periodontal tissue, interdental spaces and their structures and systems, comprising: Hydrogen peroxide as a key active ingredient and source of active oxygen compounds in formulations; Ionized colloidal silver and / or ionized colloidal gold as other key active ingredients in the formulation, which function as mild antibacterial agents.

In this case, the individual components of the formulation are previously metered or weighed on a scale. This scale is preferably electronic, but may be any other calibrated scale used in the current state of the art for weighing the components of the formulation within the meaning of the present invention. The above-mentioned auxiliary components or adjuvants are gradually added to the mixing reactor with continuous mixing. After all the components of the formulation are mixed, a sample of the semi-finished formulation is taken and analyzed in the laboratory. The pH, hydrogen peroxide concentration, and, if necessary, density of the prepared semi-finished product are measured. After the analysis of the semi-finished product samples, the semi-finished product is allowed to flow out of the mixing reactor in a free fall into a prepared storage container sealed against oxygen access from the air to prevent oxidation of the semi-finished product. The semi-finished product, i.e. the pre-prepared formulation, waiting to be filled into the final package is stored in this container until it is filled into the package, in an environment free of air, oxygen, and / or other gases, and / or other environmental elements.

[0083] The preparation and storage of the semi-finished products is followed by the preparation of the final product.

[0084] The production of the final product includes the filling and packaging process of the semi-finished products into packages, which is carried out on a filling line, using a filling line and a filling machine and under set conditions of filling and packaging parameters, where the filling line and the filling machine are selected from filling lines and filling machines used for filling and packaging various types of preparations in the form of solutions, gels, emulsions, lotions, milks and / or creams. Set conditions of filling and packaging parameters of the semi-finished products within the meaning of the present invention are, among others, set conditions of parameters known in the state of the art, preferably in the field of cosmetics, and are, among others, classified as, for example, filling volume, pressure or filling pressure of the preparation into a final product with a certain packaging volume, product labeling, etc., but are not limited to those listed here. Here, as known in the state of the art for filling and packaging products containing hydrogen peroxide or active oxygen compounds as active ingredients, it is important to clean, neutralize and sterilize the filling line before the start of each filling and packaging procedure.

[0085] The final product of the formulation according to the invention is also a formulation contained in various devices for the care and maintenance and preservation of the health of the skin, nails (fingernails and toenails) and tissues, systems and structures of the oral cavity referred to herein. Such final product of the formulation according to the invention includes, inter alia, various forms of formulations contained in devices selected from patches, dental showers, toothbrushes and / or interdental toothbrushes intended for the controlled release of the active principles and ingredients according to the invention.

[0086] Furthermore, a subject of the present invention is a method for producing a device according to the invention containing these preparations, for applying or using these preparations on and / or in a target area of ​​a living organism.

[0087] The formulations can also be used to facilitate the care of minor skin and nail (finger and toenail) injuries that are more shallow and do not involve major inflammation and infection. Injuries are classified as, among others, minor mechanical and / or thermal injuries, and minor injuries resulting from physical or mechanical, biological and / or microbial injuries, but are not limited to those listed herein, including skin lesions with slight, small, or not very extensive bleeding. Injuries that are deeper and involve subcutaneous tissues, structures, and systems, and / or injuries with severe and / or major bleeding are excluded here.

[0088] Small or shallow mechanical injuries within the meaning of the present invention are caused by various mechanical forces. For example, these wounds within the meaning of the present invention include wounds of shallower and / or smaller areas of the human body, such as wounds of any origin, abrasions or abrasions, lacerations, incisions or cuts, puncture or puncture wounds, bites caused by bites or nibbles of various animals (e.g., dogs, cats, pigs, horses, cows, chickens, birds, rats and mice, as well as other rodents and other mammals). These wounds also include gunshot or bullet wounds, or graze wounds (e.g., graze wounds and tangent gunshot wounds, where a projectile grazes a part of the body, causing shallower injuries and / or wounds with a grooved shape or other similar shape).

[0089] Small or shallow thermal injuries within the meaning of the present invention are caused by high heat and / or hot objects and / or hot environmental factors, and / or cold or cold objects and / or cold objects and / or cold environmental factors. Such injuries include small and / or shallow burns and / or frostbite covering a smaller surface area of ​​the human body.

[0090] Wounds or damage to tissues, mucous membranes, systems and structures within the meaning of the present invention are characterized by interruptions in the continuity of the skin and / or mucous membranes and / or nails (finger or toenails) and / or teeth. The wounds or damage are the result of violent, negligent and careless actions, with recklessness and / or carelessness, and may or may not have defects in the structures, tissues and / or systems under the skin, mucous membranes, nails (finger or toenails) and / or teeth. Within the meaning of the present invention, these wounds or damage are superficial, covering a smaller area and not including the entire surface of the body. In the case of such wounds or damage, exudation of lymphatic fluid, interstitial fluid and / or minor hemorrhages may occur and in some cases, various types of infections may occur. In the case of wounds or damage, infections may follow because the object and / or surrounding agent that caused the wound or damage is infected.

[0091] The hydrogen peroxide and active hydrogen compounds according to the present invention oxidize and regenerate target areas of an organism, preferably target tissues, mucosa, structures and systems of an organism, including preferably the skin, subcutaneous tissues, mucosa, structures and systems on the surface of the body, in the subcutaneous tissues and in the ear cavity or ear, including the nails (of the fingers and toes) and cuticle tissue (tissue around the nail or cuticle), as well as tissues, mucosa, structures and systems within the oral cavity, including the teeth, periodontium (gums, or tissue around the teeth), and interdental spaces.

[0092] When the formulation comes into contact with the surface of the skin, the integumentary and subcutaneous systems, including the nails (of the fingers and toes) and cuticle tissue (tissue around the nail or cuticle), and the tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and systems of the ear and ear cavity, and / or the surface of the oral cavity, and / or the tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and systems of the oral cavity, including the teeth, periodontal tissues (gums), and interdental spaces, the formulation releases oxygen bubbles, which causes the formulation to effervescently foam on the application surface. The released oxygen thus causes the oxidation of healthy, damaged, and / or inflamed target tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and / or systems, and removes debris and exudates or secretions from potentially inflamed or damaged areas, thereby contributing to the regeneration and restoration of the target tissues, mucous membranes, structures, and / or systems. In addition, the released oxygen helps to remove ear wax by dissolving it in the ear.

[0093] When the formulation comes into contact with the tooth surface, oxygen bubbles are released from the formulation, which causes the formulation to foam lightly on the application surface and remove food residues, plaque, and / or tartar from the surfaces of the teeth and periodontal tissues (gums) and between the teeth without affecting the hardness and / or structure of the enamel. Thus, the formulation according to the invention helps to remove food residues, plaque, and tartar, prevents them from becoming overcrowded and depositing on and / or in targeted areas of the oral cavity, and helps to prevent inflammation and bleeding in the oral cavity, periodontitis, and periodontal disease.

[0094] The released oxygen thus causes oxidation and removal of debris and exudates or secretions from areas of possible inflammation or injury.

[0095] The inert ingredients hydrate, regenerate and nourish the target tissues, structures and systems of the skin, nails (fingernails and toenails) and cuticle tissue, and mucous membranes or tissues, structures and systems in the oral cavity. Inert ingredients within the meaning of the present invention also have a mild bactericidal effect on the above target tissues, structures and systems, similar to active oxygen compounds, thereby providing protection against pathogenic microorganisms, i.e. bacteria, fungi, viruses and other microorganisms.

[0125] Preparation of liposomes for preparation of liposomes for controlled release of active oxygen compounds and examples of the preparation method thereof The preparation in the form of liposomes consists of a microformulation containing an active oxygen compound according to the invention, i.e. a liposome containing in its core a preparation containing hydrogen peroxide molecules in a concentration by weight of hydrogen peroxide of ≧1wt.% to ≦6wt.% and / or alternatively benzoyl peroxide and / or carbamide peroxide molecules in a concentration by weight of ≧5wt.% to ≦20wt.% of benzoyl peroxide or carbamide peroxide molecules in the total preparation, and optionally a peroxidase enzyme, preferably glucose oxidase. The microformulation has the form of a gel which, in addition to the active ingredients mentioned above, also contains hyaluronic acid, panthenol and Actipone™ as described herein.

[0126] The liposomes described herein and prepared according to this method are then incorporated into a formulation according to the invention having the form of a gel, cream, emulsion and / or paste according to the invention and comprising other active ingredients within the meaning of the invention and auxiliary ingredients or adjuvants as defined in the specification of the invention.

[0127] Liposome production According to the present invention, the liposomes have an active oxygen compound embedded in the core or nucleus of the liposome. According to the present invention, the liposomes are in the size range of 25 nm to 1000 nm, preferably in the range of 100 nm to 500 nm.

[0128] The source of active oxygen compounds is preferably hydrogen peroxide according to the present invention, alternatively benzoyl peroxide or carbamide peroxide embedded in the nucleus or core of the liposome, optionally with a peroxidase enzyme embedded in the membrane of the liposome, which catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into active oxygen compounds.Instead of the stabilized hydrogen peroxide according to the present invention, benzoyl peroxide or carbamide peroxide can alternatively be selected.

[0129] The liposomes are prepared by the reverse phase evaporation method known and used in the current state of the art. This is preferably the method of F. Szoka and D. Papadjopolous described in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 75, pp. 4194-4198, 1978. In this method, a phosphatidylinositol compound (hereinafter abbreviated as PI) and dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (hereinafter abbreviated as DMPC) are mixed in a ratio of 1:9 with an aqueous glucose oxidase enzyme solution. Instead of dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (hereinafter abbreviated as DMPC), dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (abbreviated as DPPC) or distearoyl phosphatidylcholine (abbreviated as DSPC) can also be used.

[0130] To 9 mg of DMPC, 1 mg of PI, 100 μl of DPPC, and 3 ml of a mixture of distilled chloroform and methanol in a ratio of 4:1 were added. The mixture was rotary evaporated at 60° C. to obtain a lipid film. It was dispersed in 6 ml of a mixture of distilled chloroform and methanol in a ratio of 4:1 and 3 ml of 1 / 10 nitrogen-saturated phosphate buffered saline (hereinafter referred to as PBS) at a concentration of 0.15 mol / l containing 10 mg of glucose oxidase. The mixture was rotary mixed and sonicated for 4 minutes under nitrogen in an ultrasonic bath with a bath temperature of 30° C., which is a temperature higher than the lipid phase transition temperature, i.e., the phase transition temperature of phospholipids, more specifically, of phosphatidylcholine. This method was preferably carried out in an ultrasonic device manufactured by Decon Ultrasonics Ltd. (Sussex, England) using a Decon FS 100 device. This mixture resulted in a homogenous emulsion, which was rotary evaporated at a temperature higher than the phase transition temperature of the lipid. First, a viscous lipid gel phase was formed, and then gel inversion occurred when an aqueous lipid suspension was formed, which was purified with the aid of oxygen when exposed to nitrogen for 15 minutes at a temperature above the lipid phase transition temperature.In this way, traces of organic solvent were removed, as well as any defects in the formation of the liposome membrane and the liposome itself.

[0131] When DPPC was used instead of DMPC, a bath temperature of 50° C. was used, and in the case of DSPC, a bath temperature of 60° C. was used, which is the phase transition temperature of this lipid.

[0132] In order to remove the glucose oxidase enzyme that was not incorporated into liposomes and was floating freely in the suspension from the suspension thus formed, it was purified by Sepharose 4B column chromatography (30 cm x 1.5 cm). In this method, the column was previously purified with a liposome dispersion to prevent the liposomes from adsorbing to the surface of the Sepharose gel matrix. The chromatography was performed while flowing PBS (i.e., phosphate buffered saline) with a pH value of 7.3 at a flow rate of 0.2 ml / min. The purified suspension fraction was 2 cm3 was collected in an amount of

[0133] The liposomes thus produced are shown in Figure 1. In Figure 1, a liposome containing a formulation according to the invention is shown in a simplified schematic form as one example of a formulation within the meaning of the present invention. Such a formulation has the form of a liposome for use in the oral cavity or on the skin, which provides a controlled release of active oxygen compounds in the target area of ​​the organism.

[0134] FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of such a liposome containing formulation containing an active oxygen compound according to the invention as one example of a formulation within the meaning of the invention. Such a formulation has the form of a liposome for use in the oral cavity or on the skin, which has a controlled release of the active oxygen compound, in the oral cavity, achieved by the effect of saliva and the ambient temperature of the oral cavity on the liposome, or on the skin, achieved by the effect of exudates on the skin and the ambient temperature, including the skin temperature, on the liposome. In order to release the active oxygen compound faster, the liposome shell or membrane is optionally present with a peroxidase enzyme. The source of the active oxygen compound as the important or main active ingredient is stabilized hydrogen peroxide (chemical formula: H 2 O 2 ) and alternatively, instead of hydrogen peroxide, benzoyl peroxide (chemical formula: C 14 H 10 O 4 ) or carbamide peroxide.

[0135] The liposomes shown in FIG. 1 within the meaning of the present invention have an envelope, i.e. a membrane made of so-called phospholipid molecules. Each phospholipid molecule has a polar part, i.e. a so-called polar head 1, which has hydrophilic properties, and two lipophilic or hydrophobic ends, i.e. a so-called hydrophobic tail 2. The phospholipid molecules are structured and oriented in the liposomal membrane such that one membrane lamella, i.e. the outer layer, is arranged with the polar head 1 towards the outside of the liposome and the hydrophobic tail 2 towards the center of the liposomal membrane, and the second membrane lamella, i.e. the inner layer, is arranged with the polar head 1 towards the inside of the liposome, i.e. towards the nucleus or core of the liposome, and the hydrophobic tail 2 towards the liposomal membrane core. The liposomes have a hydrophilic layer, i.e. a hydrophilic microenvironment, both on the outside of the liposome and in the nucleus / core along the liposomal nucleus / core, and a hydrophobic layer, i.e. a hydrophobic microenvironment, in the liposomal membrane between the tails 2. In the nucleus or core of the liposomes is present a microformulation according to the invention comprising an active oxygen compound, i.e. a formulation comprising hydrogen peroxide molecules in a gel medium or, alternatively, benzoyl peroxide or carbamide peroxide molecules. Optionally, a peroxidase enzyme 4 is present in the liposomal membrane.

[0136] Figure 2 shows a schematic of the structure of the bilayer phospholipid membrane or liposome envelope shown in Figure 1. It consists of a series of phospholipid molecules oriented in space such that the polar, i.e. hydrophilic, heads 1 of the phospholipid molecules are on one side and the hydrophobic, i.e. non-polar, tails 2 of the phospholipids are in contact with each other.

[0137] Example of a micelle structure for a formulation in the form of micelles with controlled release of active oxygen compounds Figure 3 shows a schematic representation of a micelle containing formulation containing an active oxygen compound according to the invention as one example of a formulation within the meaning of the present invention. Such a formulation has the form of a micelle for use in the oral cavity or on the skin, which provides a controlled release of the active oxygen compound, in the oral cavity by the effect of saliva and the ambient temperature of the oral cavity on the micelles, or on the skin by the effect of exudates on the skin and the ambient temperature, including the skin temperature, on the micelles.

[0138] Figure 4 shows a schematic representation of the structure of the unilamellar phospholipid micelle envelope shown in Figure 3. It consists of a series of phospholipids with a hydrophilic head 1 facing towards the outside of the micelle and a hydrophobic tail 2 facing towards the inside of the micelle. Here, an active oxygen compound within the meaning of the present invention is located in the micelle core in the microformulation in the form of a gel, similarly to the example of the microformulation in the form of liposomes described above.

[0139] Example of a patch according to the invention in the form of liposomes Figure 5 shows a schematic diagram of one embodiment of a patch containing a formulation according to the invention for use on the skin and integumentary system. Here, the active oxygen compound contained in the liposomes of the gel medium and embedded in the pad or matrix O1 of the patch together with other components of the formulation is released in a controlled manner over a certain period of time. This occurs under the influence of the ambient temperature and the effect of other factors on the target part or target site of the organism. These other factors are substances on the surface of the skin, such as exudates and their components, and other factors. Alternatively, a patch with such a structure can also be used for oral applications.

[0140] The patch matrix O1 is attached to the patch holder O2, which has an adhesive layer of silicone or similar polymer applied to its edge in order to attach the patch to the target site of the organism. The figure also shows the direction of release of the active ingredient and other ingredients of the formulation to the target site of the organism. This direction is symbolically represented by a wide arrow O3 pointing downwards or exiting from the patch matrix O1. The direction of the effect of other factors such as the ambient temperature and exudates on the skin and mucous membranes, or alternatively saliva in the oral cavity, is symbolically represented by a wide arrow O4 pointing upwards or entering the patch matrix O1.

[0141] Examples of dental shower apparatus with interchangeable adjustable spray brushes of various designs and functions for the controlled application of the formulations according to the present invention, thereby releasing active oxygen compounds. In Fig. 6 an applicator or device for applying the formulation according to the invention to a target site of an organism, which is the oral cavity, including the teeth and associated tissues, mucosa, structures and systems, is shown diagrammatically. The device shown is a dental shower device PN1 with a container PN10 of the formulation according to the invention, preferably in the form of a solution, mouthwash and / or spray. The container PN10 has a cover PN11 over an opening for injecting the formulation according to the invention. The container PN10 is connected via two separate supply tubes PN7L and PN7D to two dental shower toothbrushes PN2L and PN2D for use in the oral cavity. The supply tubes PN7L and PN7D are wound onto threads PN8L and PN8D for the purpose of extending the distance between the device and the toothbrush during oral cleaning, and are shown in this figure only on the outside front of the device, and are shown symbolically in a lighter grey colour to show the flow from the threads PN8L and PN8D through the brush stand PN3L or PN3D, the brush handle PN4L or PN4D, and the brush head PN5L or PN5D for ease of understanding the arrangement of the tubes.

[0142] The formulation according to the invention flows from the container PN10 through the handle stand PN3L or PN3D, the brush PN2L or PN2D, and the handle PN4L or PN4D to the spray nozzle of the brush head PN5L or PN5D via the supply tube PN7L or PN7D, also shown as thread PN8L or PN8D for extending the distance between the device and the brush handle from 20 cm or more to 70 cm or less. The heads of these brushes have a tube integrated in the center for the flow of the formulation to the spray nozzle, and when the brush head is attached or fitted to the brush handle PN4L or PN4D, the brush head tube PN5L or PN5D is fixed to the device's supply tube PN7L or PN7D and connected with the supply tube PN7L or PN7D.

[0143] The shower brushes shown in Figure 6 are fitted with different heads PN5L and PN5D which are interchangeable on the brush handle. The left brush is fitted with an interdental brush head PN5L, shown in more detail in Figures 7 and 8, and therefore acts as an adjusted and attached interdental toothbrush. The right brush is fitted with an oral rotary brush head PN5D, shown in more detail in Figures 9 and 10, and therefore acts as an adjusted and attached rotary toothbrush for cleaning spaces and other structures in the oral cavity, including the teeth, periodontium (gums), and tongue, and thus for removing plaque and food and drink residues.

[0144] At the side end of the device, each toothbrush has a separate adjustment button PN9L and PN9D for adjusting the speed and thereby the dispensed volume of the formulation. Each toothbrush handle has an adjustment button PN6L or PN6D for adjusting the rotation speed and / or the vibration speed of the toothbrush head. The toothbrush handle PN4L or PN4D is located on a handle stand PN3L or PN3D.

[0145] Figure 7 shows in more detail a schematic enlarged view of the interdental toothbrush head PN5L of Figure 6, which can be replaced on any of the dental shower toothbrush handles of Figure 6. Here, the bristles portion MZ2 of the toothbrush head, its neck MZ1 and the attachment MZ3 for insertion into the toothbrush handle PN4L shown in Figure 6 are shown. The shower toothbrush PN2L thus fitted or attached with the toothbrush head PN5L operates as an interdental toothbrush.
