摘要
Stable, non-detergent fatty acid micro-emulsions for administration to man or animals The micro-emulsions are at pH below 6.5 and contain the following, which preferably constitute 5-35 wt.% of the micro-emulsion, the remainder being water: (a) as active ingredient, 5-30 wt.% of one or more fatty acids, having a free carboxylic acid function, together with (b) 5-35 wt.% surfactant(s), (c) 5-30 wt.% 1-12C alcohol(s) as co-surfactant, (d) 5-35 wt.% of one or more water-soluble compounds having a carbonyl or hydroxyl function, and (e) 0-35% of one or more compounds that are immiscible with water. The active fatty acids a) preferably have 4-22C atoms and modify the behavior or physiological response of man or animals, such as fatty acid pheromones, palmitic, oleic, butyric, linoleic, palmitic, or palmitoleic acids. The surfactant (b) is preferably anionic or non-ionic, such as an alkali metal 6-18C alkyl sulfate, a condensation product of a 8-22C fatty acid with ethylene or propylene oxide, or a condensation product of a 8-22C fatty ester of sorbitol with ethylene or propylene oxide. The alcohol co-surfactant c) is preferably ethanol or isopropanol. The water soluble product d) is preferably N-methyl acetamide, N,N-dimethyl acetamide, N-methyl pyrrolidone, a glycol, optionally in the form of its 1-4C monoalkyl ether, a monosaccharide, a disaccharide, or glycerol. The optional water-immiscible compound may be, for example a 5-16C saturated hydrocarbon, a 4-20C fatty acid mono-, di- or tri-glyceride, or a 4-20C alkyl pyrrolidone. The micro-emulsions may be prepared by simple mixing of the ingredients, but preferably a premix is made of part of the fatty acid, the immiscible compounds and the water soluble compounds, and a premix of the surfactants, co-surfactants, and water is added. The micro-emulsions may also contain antimicrobial preservatives, and antioxidants.
