AI Technical Summary
Existing pet oral care products have difficulty maintaining antibacterial effects, poor palatability, and asynchronous release and coverage, making them unable to effectively control dental plaque and gingivitis caused by Streptococcus mutans.
The product employs a dual-network cross-linked hydrogel, which forms an interpenetrating network structure through carbomer and sodium alginate, combined with electrostatic composite cross-linking of ferrous ions and polyhexamethylene biguanide, along with ingredients such as dipotassium glycyrrhizate and green-lipped mussel extract, to achieve targeted antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects against Streptococcus mutans.
It achieves a high inhibition rate of Streptococcus mutans (≥99.9%), while reducing gingival redness and pain, improving the product's palatability and multiple care effects, and possessing good stability and biocompatibility.
