20150224044 | ORAL CARE METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS UTILIZING CHITOSAN-DERIVATIVE COMPOUNDS - Described herein is a method of reducing bacteria in the mouth of a subject, the method comprising contacting (e.g., rinsing) the mouth with an effective amount of a composition comprising a soluble derivatized chitosan, thereby reducing bacteria in the mouth of the subject. | 08-13-2015 |
20140301955 | CHITOSAN-DERIVATIVE COMPOUNDS AND METHODS OF CONTROLLING MICROBIAL POPULATIONS - The present invention is directed to chitosan-derivative compounds and structures, methods of making chitosan-derivative compounds and methods for controlling, inhibiting and enhancing microbial populations in a variety of environments. The present invention is also directed to the control, inhibition and enhancement of microbial populations in animals, particularly humans. The microbial populations include bacteria, viruses and other pathogens where control of microbial populations are a necessity. The chitosan-derivative compounds of the present invention include chitosan-arginine compounds, related chitosan-L/D unnatural amino acid compounds, chitosan-acid amine compounds, chitosan-L/D natural amino acid derivative compounds, co-derivatives of the chitosan-derivative compounds, salts of the chitosan derivative compounds, and chitosan-guanidine compounds. | 10-09-2014 |
20140221308 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS OF REDUCING AND PREVENTING BACTERIAL GROWTH AND THE FORMATION OF BIOFILM ON A SURFACE UTILIZING CHITOSAN-DERIVATIVE COMPOUNDS - A method of treating a surface, the method comprising contacting (e.g., spraying) an effective amount of a composition comprising a chitosan (e.g., soluble or derivatized chitosan) with the surface, thereby treating the surface. Non-pharmaceutical compositions (e.g., liquid or dry powder compositions) include chitosan (e.g., a soluble or derivatized chitosan). The compounds and compositions described herein are biocompatible (e.g., non-toxic) and/or biodegradable (e.g., eco-friendly). Methods using the compositions described herein include methods of treating a surface (e.g., an inert and/or non-animal surface, e.g., a synthetic or semi-synthetic surface (e.g., cellulose, ceramic, plastic, metal, glass, wood, or stone); or a food or food product surface, the method comprising contacting (e.g., spraying) an effective amount of a composition comprising a chitosan (e.g., a soluble or derivatized chitosan described herein) with the inert and/or non-animal surface, or the food or food product surface, thereby treating the surface. | 08-07-2014 |
20140080785 | METHODS FOR TREATMENT OR PREVENTION OF DAMAGE RESULTING FROM RADIATION, TRAUMA OR SHOCK - Described herein are methods of treating a subject that has been or will be exposed to radiation, trauma or shock, the method comprising identifying a subject that has been or will be exposed to radiation, and treating the subject with a compound that treats, reduces the severity or delays the onset of sepsis or reduces the likelihood of mortality in a subject upon administration of a therapeutically effective amount the compound to the subject. | 03-20-2014 |
20130210761 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR TREATING WOUNDS UTILIZING CHITOSAN COMPOUNDS - Described herein are methods of treating wounds, the method comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of a composition comprising a soluble or derivatized chitosan wherein the soluble or derivatized chitosan when administered contacts the wound, thereby treating the wound. | 08-15-2013 |
20130190227 | CHITOSAN DERIVATIVES TO TREAT ANIMALS OR OPTIMIZE ANIMAL HEALTH - Described herein are methods of inhibiting the growth of or killing a bacterium in an animal subject, preventing or delaying onset of an infection with a bacterium in an animal subject, preventing or delaying onset of a pathogen mediated disease or disorder in an animal subject, or reducing bacterial load in an animal subject, comprising administering an effective amount of a derivatized chitosan to the animal. Also described herein are preparations comprising a chitosan derivative for administration to an animal. | 07-25-2013 |
20100137193 | CHITOSAN DERIVATIVES TO TREAT ANIMALS OR OPTIMIZE ANIMAL HEALTH - Described herein are methods of inhibiting the growth of or killing a bacterium in an animal subject, preventing or delaying onset of an infection with a bacterium in an animal subject, preventing or delaying onset of a pathogen mediated disease or disorder in an animal subject, or reducing bacterial load in an animal subject, comprising administering an effective amount of a derivatized chitosan to the animal. Also described herein are preparations comprising a chitosan derivative for administration to an animal. | 06-03-2010 |
20100130443 | CHITOSAN DERIVATIVES, COMPOSITIONS AND RELATED METHODS OF USE - Described herein are methods and compositions using chitosan derivatives to treat and/or inhibit acquisition of multiple drug resistance (MDR). Also described herein are methods and compositions using chitosan derivatives in combination with an antibacterial agent to treat a bacterial infection and/or inhibit growth of bacteria, for example, resulting in a synergistic or sensitizing effect. | 05-27-2010 |
