[The underwater EOG of the frog Rana temporaria to stimulation of the olfactory receptors with solutions of fragrances and amino acids].

Studies have been made on the effectiveness of 16 amino acids and 9 odorants in olfactory perception of the frog Rana temporaria. It was shown that the effectiveness of amino acids is close to that of odorants. Basic amino acids and cysteine were more effective than other amino acids. Sensitivity of the olfactory receptors to amino acids in frogs is lower than in fishes.

Fluorometric determination of benzylideneacetone in fragrance products by liquid chromatography with post-column derivatization.

A method is described for the liquid chromatographic (LC)-fluorometric determination of benzylideneacetone in fragrance products. Benzylideneacetone is first separated from other fragrance ingredients by LC and then reacted post-column with a methanolic solution of isonicotinic acid hydrazide and aluminum nitrate. The reactants are maintained at 65 degrees C for about 1.5 min to quantitatively form the fluorescent isonicotinoyl hydrazone derivative of benzylideneacetone. The aluminum ion forms a complex with the hydrazone to enhance the fluorescence of the derivative. The amount of benzylideneacetone is determined by measuring the intensity of the fluorescence emitted by the hydrazone derivative and comparing that value with those obtained for derivatized standards. Recovery studies were conducted by spiking commercial fragrances with benzylideneacetone at concentrations of 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1% (w/v). Recoveries ranged from 98 to 104% with a mean recovery of 100.2% and a standard deviation of 2.4%.

Consort contact dermatitis due to oak moss.

An allergic contact dermatitis in a woman was found to be due to oak moss in her husband's after-shave lotion. When routine patch testing reveals a positive reaction, the dermatologist should consider exposure to the antigen not only in the patient but also through contact with the patient's consort.

Adverse reactions to cosmetics.

Adverse reactions to cosmetics can be irritant or allergic and are most often caused by fragrances or preservatives. Preservatives include formaldehyde, formaldehyde releasers, and parabens. Other agents that cause allergy are paraphenylenediamine in hair dyes and toluene sulfonamide formaldehyde resin in nail polishes.

The irritancy of soaps and syndets.

The use of soaps and synthetic detergent (syndet) bars has been associated with skin dryness and aggravation of dermatologic conditions. A number of factors, including chemical structure, pH, and cleansing ability, have been implicated in this phenomenon. Many bars contain agents designed to ameliorate the irritancy of the bar and/or provide a skin benefit. Clinical studies have shown that soaps are generally quite irritating while syndets can range from mild to harsh. The addition of skin benefit/mildness agents such as glycerin, cocoa butter, mineral oil, or lanolin has little effect on the irritancy potential of a bar since minimal amounts of these agents are deposited on the skin. The excessive removal of skin lipids by harsh soaps and detergents can result in superficial dryness. The key to gentle cleansing is to start with a mild cleansing product and avoid overuse.
