International Classification:

A61K 914

US Classification:

424488, 424400, 424 7621, 514937

Abstract:

A process of manufacturing a composition suitable for capturing unwanted molecules comprising the steps of: (a) providing cyclodextrin, a cyclodextrin-compatible material, and a cyclodextrin-incompatible material; (b) combining said cyclodextrin-compatible material and said cyclodextrin-incompatible material to form a first mixture; and (c) subsequently combining said cyclodextrin with said first mixture to form said composition suitable for capturing unwanted molecules. The resulting stable composition for removing unwanted molecules from a surface comprises functionally-available cyclodextrin and cyclodextrin-incompatible material.

International Classification:

C11D 722

US Classification:

510280, 510470

Abstract:

A method of deodorizing and/or reducing malodor in carpet comprises the step of contacting the carpet with a deodorizing composition comprising an effective amount of odor control agent. In a preferred embodiment, the deodorizing composition is a concentrated composition and the method comprises diluting the concentrated deodorizing composition to form a diluted deodorizing composition and using the diluted deodorizing composition in combination with a carpet extractor to deodorize the carpet. An article of manufacture for deodorizing carpet comprises a container, a deodorizing composition in the container, and a set of instructions in association with the container to communicate the benefits of the present methods and the uses of the present compositions.

US Classification:

514 58, 514 25, 424488, 536 46

Abstract:

A stable composition for removing unwanted molecules from a surface comprises low-degree of substitution cyclodextrin derivatives. The compositions are suitable for capturing unwanted molecules from inanimate surfaces, including fabrics, including carpets, and household surfaces such as countertops, dishes, floors, garbage cans, ceilings, walls, carpet padding, air filters, and the like, and from animate surfaces, including skin, hair, and the like. The compositions can further comprise cyclodextrin-compatible and -incompatible materials, and other optional ingredients.
