Methods for increasing the levels of avenanthramides in oats through false malting is disclosed. Oats are first subject to induction or enhancement of a secondary dormancy, and then malted for up to 5 days at an elevated temperature. The malted but not germinated oats are then dried and used as is, or further processed or milled to produce food, feed, nutraceutical or personal care products and ingredients. Methods are also provided for rendering non-dormant oats dormant and thus suitable for false malting.

Topical sanitizer includes avenanthramides, which is an active component of oats that is beneficial to the skin. The topical sanitizer is used preferably in conjunction with gloves that have an inner coating that includes avenanthramides. By using topical sanitizer that includes avenanthramides before and after wearing gloves, the skin of the person wearing the glove is more exposed to the beneficial avenanthramides all during the workday, not just when wearing gloves. The result is healthier, much softer and more comfortable skin on the hands.

The invention belongs to the field of daily-use chemicals, and discloses an extraction method and applications of oat avenanthramides. The method comprises the following steps: crushing oats, adding ethanol, evenly mixing and then adding enzyme, adjusting the pH value to be 5.0-6.0, performing enzymatic hydrolysis reaction under the stirring condition, centrifugally separating a reaction solution obtained after reaction is over, conducting subcritical extraction on solids obtained from centrifugal separation, and then recycling a solvent to obtain the oat avenanthramides extract. The method is simple and easy, conditions are easily controlled, the utilization rate of raw materials is high, and the industrial product is easily realized. Before extracting the oat avenanthramides, enzyme is added to perform pretreatment on oats, and the subcritical technology is used for extraction, so that the extraction rate of the oat avenanthramides is increased, and the time needed by extraction is shortened.

The invention provides a preparation method of avenanthramide and a derivative thereof. The avenanthramide and the derivative thereof are synthesized and obtained by mainly utilizing an organic acid and aminobenzoic acid as major reactants. The method is high in yield, few in by-products and applicable to the industrialized production of the avenanthramide and the derivative thereof. The avenanthramide has multiple bioactivities of anti-oxidation, anti-anaphylaxis, anti-proliferation and itching relief, meanwhile, also has certain effects of treating coronary disease and colonic cancer, and is often used in products of a emulsion skincare article, an after-sun repairing article, a rhinitis spray, a skin itching relieving infantile product, an externally used cream for treating dermatitis and the like.

Topical sanitizers including alcohol-based gels, alcohol-based foams, alcohol-free foams, liquid soaps, alcohol-based wipes, and alcohol-based sprays include avenanthramides, which is an active component of oats that is beneficial to the skin. The concentration of avenanthramides can be substantially less when considering the use profile of the person using the sanitizers. Many healthcare workers sanitize their hands dozens of times a day. An effective dose of avenanthramides can be delivered to the skin even when the concentration in avenanthramides is relatively low due to the repeated application of the sanitizers during the day. In addition, a lower concentration of avenanthramides may be used to maintain healthy skin compared to a higher concentration that may be used to repair damaged skin. Minimum concentrations of avenanthramides in one or more topical sanitizers can be determined according to the use profile and the target amount of avenanthramides to deliver via the topical sanitizers.

The invention features a composition and methods for treating inflammation of skin, where the composition contains hydrocortisone and an avenanthramide.

Exemplary embodiments provide oat fractions, and methods of producing the oat fractions, of the species Avena Sativa that has a concentration of total Avenanthramides that is from about 2 to about 25 wt. %, and up to about 30 wt. % or more, higher than the concentration before treatment with infrared energy. The higher concentration is achieved without treatment with enzymes or exposure to fungal agents to increase the concentration of total Avenanthramides. Instead, the enhanced concentration of Avenanthramides is achieved through exposure to infrared energy for a selected period of time.
