| Résumé : |
In home and personal care, microorganisms play an important role. Cleansing products, for example, aim to remove dirt as well as harmful bacteria and fungi. Also,products contaminated by microorganisms will spoil faster and can harm the consumer. Zinc oxide nanoparticles have been known for their antimicrobial properties for some time. Also, the activity of magnesium oxide and copper in this field is already described. CANdot Series D, consisting of Cu and Mg doped zinc oxide, combine these efects in one nanoparticle system.
The particles show growth inhibiting properties against various micro organisms, e.g. Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis or Malassezia furfur. This makes them a promising tool for applications in the field of cosmetics, such as preservatives or anti-dandruff agents, just to name two. Other potential fields could be the application of CANdot Series D in polymer composites or paints to create antibacterial surfaces. Regarding EU cosmetics regulations, particles with a size over 100nm were developed. |
