Zusammenfassung: | A composition is claimed that comprises, as an effective ingredient, a polyether of MW >400 having Ci-C3o branched units and C1-C24 linear units. The copolymer, which is typically a pluronic or synperonic, is thought to act as an inhibitor of the enzyme lipase so that the composition is of therapeutic use in the treatment of a variety of conditions including dandruff, acne, obesity and body odour. An additional, preferred use is against lipases derived from micro-organisms (ie. against skin rash). In one embodiment the polymer is impregnated into an absorbent article, preferably a bandage. The composition is further claimed for use in the preservation of food or beverage products. |
