Concentrations of about 15% of nonionic emulsifying wax are commonly used in creams, but concentrations as high as 25% may be employed, e.g., in chlorhexidine cream BP. Nonionic emulsifying wax is particularly recommended for use with salts of polyvalent metals and medicaments based on nitrogenous compounds. Creams are susceptible to microbial spoilage and should be adequately preserved. 

Compressed gas systems were originally developed simply to provide a means of expelling a product from its container when the valve was depressed. SemisoHd products such as a cream, ointment, or caulking compound are dispensed as such. A Hquid concentrate and a compressed gas propellant (Fig. 3) produce a spray when a mechanical breakup actuator is used. Nitrogen, insoluble in most materials, is generally used as the propellant. 

Theie aie only a few fat replacement products based on protein. LITA is a com protein—polysaccharide compound the role of the polysaccharide is to stabilize the protein (zein). The final product is 87% protein and 5% polysaccharide. The mixture, spray dried after processing, claims to look like cream on rehydration. It is low in viscosity, flavor, and lubricity, and is stable to mild heating. The protein particle size is 0.3—3 p.m (55). 

Lecithin. Lecithin [8002-43-5] (qv) is a mixture of fat-like compounds that includes phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamines, inositol phosphatides, and other compounds (37). Commercial lecithin was originally obtained from egg yolks, but is now extracted from soybean oil. Lecithin is used in many products, including margarine, chocolate, ice cream, cake batter, and bread. 

Specially designed impervious suits, eg. Level A suits, are utili2ed by workers handling some rocket fuels and other highly ha2ardous compounds (see Explosives and propellants). Barrier creams are much less effective than gloves for preventing skin contact. 

In Cosmetics. Amino acids and their derivatives occur in skin protein, and they exhibit a controlling or buffering effect of pH variation in skin and a bactericidal effect (216). Serine is one component of skin care cream or lotion. Ai-Acylglutamic acid triethanolamine monosalt is used for shampoo. Glucose glutamate is a moisturizing compound for hair and skin (234). 

Perfumes, Flavors, Cosmetics, and Soap. Many naturally occurring esters in essential oils and some synthetic esters are important fragrance and flavor compounds (61,62). They are used in perfumes, flavors, cosmetics, soaps, detergents, and air fresheners. Benzyl, butyl, ethyl, methyl, and phenyl esters of benzoic acid are used as flavors, perfumes, and food preservatives. Glyceryl 4-aminobenzoate [136-44-7] and 2-ethyUiexyl 4-dimethylaminobenzoate [21245-02-3] are used in cosmetic sunscreen preparations. Alkyl esters of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, called parabens, have been used under various names for fungus infections of the skin, and as preservatives in lotions and creams (101). Soap and cosmetic fragrances use large amounts of amyl and benzyl saHcylate. Benzyl saHcylate [118-58-1] is also used in deodorant sprays. 2-Ethylhexyl saHcylate [118-60-5] and 2-ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate [5466-77-3] are used in sunscreen formulations (102). 

Cyclopropyltriphenylphosphonium Bromide (5). The lactone salt is pyrolyzed by placing it in a round-bottom flask fitted with an adaptor attached to a vacuum source (aspirator is sufficient). The flask is heated (oil bath) to 180-190° for 48 hours. The residue is a virtual quantitative yield of the tan product, which may be crystallized from ethyl acetate giving cream crystals, mp 189-190°. An alternate setup is convenient if a drying pistol (Abderhalden) is available. The compound is placed in the pistol, which is then evacuated. Decalin (bp approx. 187°) is refluxed over the pistol to provide the heating source. The work-up is the same. 

Citric acid is also highly astringent it can be used as a skin toner. Like the related compound sodium citrate, citric acid is often an ingredient in ice creams, where it helps keep the fat globules separate. 

The effects of pH on electrokinetic velocities in micellar electrokinetic chromatography was studied by using sodium dodecyl sulfate solutions [179]. Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography with a sodium dodecyl sulfate pseudostationary phase has been used to determine the partition constants for nitrophenols, thiazolylazo dyes, and metal chelate compounds [180]. A similar technique was used to separate hydroquinone and some of its ether derivatives. This analysis is suitable for the determination of hydroquinone in skin-toning creams [181]. The ingredients of antipyretic analgesic preparations have also been determined by this technique [182], The addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate improves the peak shapes and resolution in chiral separations by micellar electrokinetic chromatography [183]. 

Situation A cream that contains two active compounds was investigated over 24 months (incomplete program if today s ICH standards are applied, which require testing at 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months). The assays resulted in the data given in file CREAM.dat. Program SHELFLIFE performs a linear regression on the data and plots the (lower) 90% confidence limit for the regression line. For each full time unit, here months, it is determined whether this CL drops below levels of y = 90% resp. y = 95% of nominal. Health authorities today require adherence to the 90% standard for the end-of-shelf-life test, but it is to be expected that at least for some products the 95% standard will be introduced. 

Sun worshipers and those who work outside can protect themselves from ultraviolet exposure with skin creams that contain UV-absorbing molecules. The UV-absorbing molecule in the first sunscreens was PABA, para-aminobenzoic acid. However, this compound may have toxic effects of its own. The UV-absorbing components of current sunscreens are derivatives of cinnamic acid and benzophenone. 

The consumption of dairy products plays a significant role in providing high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals, and other bioactive compounds to the American diet. Dairy products are consumed fresh in the United States in the form of fluid milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, and ice cream. Dried and condensed products such as nonfat dried milk, whey, whey protein concentrates, and isolates are also produced which are used as ingredients to boost the nutritional and functional properties of a host of other food...
