Garlic Extract Human Body Cleaner for Dandruff Treatment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current anti-dandruff shampoos rely on chemically synthesized ingredients, leading to antibiotic resistance, reduced therapeutic effects, and environmental and health concerns, while also not effectively addressing the issue of garlic overproduction and its associated economic challenges.
Innovation Solution
A human body cleaner comprising 1%wt to 60%wt of garlic extract, with a cleaning agent including 10%wt to 20%wt of surfactant and 5%wt to 15%wt of a nutrient solution, produced through a process involving garlic preparation, fermentation, and cryogenic distillation, which can be used as a natural alternative for dandruff treatment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If chemically synthesized antidandruff agents are used, then dandruff treatment effect is improved, but antibiotic resistance occurs and therapeutic effect reduces over time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical composition parameters by replacing synthetic antidandruff agents (ketoconazole, zinc pyrithione, selenium sulfide) with natural garlic extract. This parameter substitution maintains the antibacterial and antifungal effects needed for dandruff treatment while eliminating the harmful side effects of antibiotic resistance and reduced therapeutic efficacy over time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs garlic extract, a natural and renewable resource, as a disposable alternative to persistent synthetic chemicals. Garlic extract provides effective dandruff treatment through its natural sulfur compounds and allicin, which combat Malassezia furfur without creating long-term resistance issues, allowing for sustainable repeated use.
2Reliability
If chemically synthesized antidandruff agents are used, then dandruff treatment effect is improved, but environmental and health harm increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent fundamentally changes the chemical safety parameters by substituting synthetic chemicals with natural garlic extract. The garlic-based formulation maintains effective concentrations of antimicrobial compounds (allicin, sulfur compounds) while eliminating harmful synthetic residues, thereby protecting both human health and the environment from chemical pollution and adverse effects.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent converts the naturally occurring sulfur compounds in garlic, which have strong antimicrobial properties, into a beneficial treatment for dandruff. These same compounds that naturally protect garlic from pathogens are harnessed to combat Malassezia furfur on the scalp, transforming a plant's defensive mechanism into a therapeutic benefit without the harmful side effects of synthetic chemicals.
3Quantity of substance
If garlic is used in cleaning products, then garlic value increases and farmer income improves, but garlic overproduction problem must be solved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies garlic extract to multiple cleaning product applications (shampoo, body wash, facial cleanser), transforming garlic from a single-use culinary item into a multi-functional ingredient across various personal care products. This multi-functionality creates diverse market demand for garlic, effectively absorbing excess supply and increasing farmer income through value-added product development.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the economic value parameters of garlic by transitioning it from a low-value agricultural commodity subject to price fluctuations to a high-value natural ingredient in premium cleaning products. This parameter transformation— from bulk agricultural product to specialized cosmetic ingredient—creates price stability and income security for farmers while solving the overproduction problem through demand creation.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The garlic-based cleaner effectively reduces dandruff symptoms, increases garlic value, and avoids antibiotic resistance and environmental harm, providing a competitive and safe natural cleaning product.
Implementation Method 1
adding yeast in a predetermined ratio to the garlic mixture, which is left to stand for fermentation to obtain a garlic fermentation broth
Implementation Method 2
performing preliminary distillation on the garlic mixture at 100∼200 °C; performing cryogenic distillation on the garlic fermentation broth at 200∼400° C to obtain a garlic extract

AI summary
The present invention discloses a human body cleaner and manufacturing method thereof. The human body cleaner comprises 1 %wt ∼ 60 %wt of garlic extract, and 40 %wt ∼ 99 %wt of cleaning agent. The method for manufacturing the human body cleaner comprises the following steps: preparing a plurality of garlics, adding water in a predetermined ratio to a plurality of garlics to obtain a garlic mixture, adding yeast in a predetermined ratio to the garlic mixture and leaving it to stand for a period of time for fermentation to obtain a garlic fermentation broth, performing cryogenic distillation on the garlic fermentation broth to obtain a garlic extract, and adding a cleaning agent in a predetermined ratio to the garlic extract for mixture to obtain the human body cleaner. The present invention uses the herbal human body cleaner made from garlic to clean human body and reduce symptoms of dandruff. Moreover, long-term use of the present invention will not cause either antibiotic resistance or environmental degradation.
