Description

NANOEMULSIONS COMPRISING LIPOAMINOACIDS AND MONO- GLYCERIDES, DIGLYCERIDES AND POLYGL YCERIDES OF FATTY ACIDS
This invention relates to nanoemulsions containing lipoaminoacids and monoglycerides, diglycerides and polyglycerides of fatty acids as emulsifiers.
Nanoemulsions are emulsions wherein the particle size of the internal phase is normally under 100 nm. This particle size is usually obtained by drastically reducing the interface tension of the system. According to Stokes' law, the sedimentation rate of the particles is directly proportional to twice the square of the particle diameter. Hence the smaller the particle size, the more stable the dispersion obtained.
Nanoemulsions can be used as a vehicle for transparent or translucent active ingredients with a particularly attractive appearance. Nanoemulsions are advantageously used in numerous applications. However, nanoemulsions are a system with a very delicate balance wherein even the addition of a single non-compatible component can jeopardise the stability and coagulation of the particles. Another known problem of nanoemulsions is their inability to incorporate large amounts of oil.
To eliminate these problems, known nanoemulsions have a relatively high content of emulsifiers such as fatty acids or ethoxylated or propoxylated fatty acids which, however, present problems of unsatisfactory skin tolerability and local toxicity. The problem of skin irritability is particularly felt, because nanoemulsions represent the ideal cosmetic and pharmaceutical vehicle for cosmetic active constituents; they easily permeate the first cell layer of the epidermis, and then release the necessary active constituents.
Nanoemulsions recently studied and developed as a vehicle for cosmetic, dermatological and pharmaceutical active ingredients are described, for example, in US 2004445159 Al and EP-Al-1160005.
The nanoemulsions obtained so far contain synthetic surfactants deriving from ethylene or propylene oxide or phosphoric esters with a high surface energy which is advantageous in terms of stability but promotes penetration of the epidermis, leading to problems of skin intolerance, reddening and allergies due to ethylene and/or propylene oxide derivatives.
The use of phospholipids as emulsifiers has not yet proved wholly satisfactory as regards cosmetic emollient characteristics. It has now been discovered that stable, well-tolerated nanoemulsions can be obtained which are able to carry cosmetic or pharmaceutical active ingredients with a variety of chemico-physical characteristics by using at least one lipoaminoacid or a mixture thereof, associated with monoglycerides, diglycerides or polyglycerides of fatty acids, either individually or combined with one another.
The nanoemulsions according to the invention can contain a high percentage of lipids, and do not contain emulsifiers deriving from ethylene or propylene oxide, phosphoric esters, sulphated derivatives, etc.. They present a high level of skin tolerability and have a particle size of between 50 and 500 nm, and preferably between 50 and 100 nm.
Lipoaminoacids are obtained by reaction between fatty acids and at least one aminoacid or a mixture of aminoacids chosen from among glutamic acid, glycine, proline, arginine, valine, leucine, alanine, isoleucine, tryptophan, methionine, phenylalanine, serine, threonine, cysteine, tyrosine, asparagine, glutamine, aspartic acid, lysine, histidine, sarcosine, ornithine and desmosine.
Alternatively, lipoaminoacids can be obtained by reaction between fatty acids and carnitine, creatine or peptides such as carnosine, glutathione and their physiologically equivalent derivatives.
The lipoaminoacids can be salified with alkaline metals, alkaline earths or amine bases, for example in the form of potassium, sodium, magnesium, triethanolamine or methylpropanolamine salts. The fatty acids are preferably chosen from among octanoic, decanoic, lauric, myristic, palmitic, oleic, stearic, linoleic, linolenic, erucic and behenic acid or mixtures thereof; alternatively, fatty acids obtained from coconut, palm, olive, sunflower, peanut, soya or sweet almond oil or other vegetable oils can be used. Lipoaminoacids are present in the nanoemulsions according to the invention in percentages of between 0.1 and 15% in weight of the total nanoemulsion, and preferably between 1 and 4%, while monoglycerides, diglycerides and polyglycerides of fatty acids are present in percentages of between 0.2 and 10% in weight of the total nanoemulsion, and preferably between 1 and 4%.
Lipoaminoacids are already used in cosmetics because they easily permeate the first layer of the epidermis, where they release the aminoacid portion and fatty acids that promote the restructuring and defence of the skin. Glycerol and polyglycerol esters of fatty acids represent the "co-emulsifier"; they are all soluble in the oily phase of the nanoemulsion, have a low interface energy, and do not affect the natural state of aggregation of the lipids and hydrophilic cutaneous substances.
The nanoemulsions according to the invention, like the normal emulsions used in cosmetics, can contain a large amount of lipids. The nanoemulsions according to the invention are highly homogenous monophase systems, and have an appearance ranging from semitransparent to sheer with beige/blue highlights, typical of nanoemulsions.
The nanoemulsion preparation methods described so far involve the use of high pressures and temperatures; as a result, they are not easily reproduced at industrial level, and are expensive. However, the nanoemulsions to which this invention relates can be obtained with conventional emulsifying methods but with the advantage of considerable energy saving, in terms of both the mechanical energy required by the emulsifying devices and as regards heat, as they can be produced by pre-heating only the fatty phase containing the lipoaminoacid and the monoglycerides, diglycerides and polyglycerides of fatty acids, with a low input of mechanical energy. The industrial manufacturing processes are therefore reproducible and economical. The nanoemulsion obtained with the lipoaminoacid is dermatologically compatible, safe in toxicological terms, and can easily carry active constituents such as vitamins, alpha hydroxy acids, aminoacids, medicinal plant extracts and other cosmetologically functional substances to the surface skin layers. The nanoemulsions thus obtained can be used in the cosmetic, dermopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical industries due to their increased biological activity and skin penetration ability, and the improvement in the normal natural barrier functions of the cutaneous hydrolipid film.
The nanoemulsions according to the invention have low viscosity; they can be used "as is" and delivered by nebuliser spray or viscosified with conventional gelling agents.
The nanoemulsions according to the invention are also distinguished by their exceptional stability, even though they are free of viscosity at both high and low lipid concentrations. For example, the nanoemulsion according to the invention can contain between 1 and 60% of fatty phase and between 40 and 99% of water, demonstrating the great versatility of the system.
