Definitions
- the invention relates mainly to a particle comprising at least one biopolymer which is degradable under the effect of an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which is in the spectrum of the wavelengths emitted by the sun, this biopolymer comprising nucleosides.
- the invention finds cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, agri-food or agro-industrial use, in releasing an active principle contained by this particle when it is subjected to an electromagnetic wave.
- pH-dependent polymers such as Eudragit® S and L (Bayer), cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate has enabled the development of gastro-resistant microspheres which release a low amount of an active in an acid medium (0.1N HCl) but which have very rapid release kinetics after a sharp increase of the pH (towards 6-7) (Palmieri et al, 2002, J. Microencaps., 19, 1, 111-119; Lorenzo et al, 1997, J. Microencaps., 14, 5, 607-616).
- microencapsulated active is not very much released in a gastric medium (which is very acidic), and this enables for example reducing the risks of irritation of the gastric mucosa, which phenomena are observed for many chemical compounds.
- microspheres or microcapsules which release their actives under the action of light and/or ultra-violets (UV).
- UV ultra-violets
- the spheres or capsules thus obtained could in fact release anti-oxidants, solar filters or molecules enabling inducing a barrier effect, only when the skin really needs it, the encapsulation enabling avoiding the skin contact and penetration of certain actives which are particularly irritant, even allergenic (vitamin A, vitamin E, solar filters, perfumes, etc . . . ).
- the doses of solar energy which are necessary for the degradation of the film are very significant (500,000 kJ/m 2 ), doses which correspond to more than 15 days of exposure in full Summer (Getajimann et al., 1994, Polym. Deg. Stab., 43, 343-352) and which are therefore incompatible with the rapid degradation expected during a daily solar exposure (as an indication, the daily solar energy received varies from 5,000 to 10,000 kJ/m 2 ).
- Certain derivatives of N-isopropylacrylamide can also acquire a very interesting reactivity to ultra-violets by grafting of a UV-photosensitive molecule such as bis(4-dimethylamino)phenylmethyl leucocyanide (Mamada et al., 1990, Macromolecules, 23, 1517-1519).
- a UV-photosensitive molecule such as bis(4-dimethylamino)phenylmethyl leucocyanide (Mamada et al., 1990, Macromolecules, 23, 1517-1519).
- the ultra-violet light first of all creates an ionization reaction in the gel formed from this polymer, and this leads to an increase in the internal osmotic pressure and a swelling of the gel. In the absence of ultra-violet light, the equilibrium is reversed and the gel beaks up, it is said that the gel “collapses”.
- the grafting of chromophores which are sensitive to light, such as, for example, the chlorophyllin-copper complex or its trisodium salts, onto N-isopropylacrylamide polymers enables obtaining gels which are reactive to visible light (Suzuki et al., 1990, Nature, 1990, 346, 26, 345-347; Qiu et al., 2001, Adv. Drug. Deliv. Rev., 53, 321-339).
- the chromophore absorbs the solar energy to locally transform it into heat, in thus increasing the temperature of the gel.
- the increase in the temperature thus leads to a contraction of the gel.
- the use of these gels in microspheres could enable a release of the active at the moment at which the gel contracts.
- Yui's group (Yui et al., 1993, J. Controlled Release, 26, 141-145) proposed the use of a gel of hyaluronic acid coupled to a photosensitizer, methylene blue, as support medium of the microspheres. Under the effect of the light, there is a production of OH o radicals which de-polymerize and fluidify the hyaluronic acid gel, and thus enable the degradation of the spheres and the release of the active principles.
- a main aim of the invention is to solve the novel technical problem consisting of providing particles which are formed from natural biopolymers, which can deliver active principles which are optionally contained by these particles, under the action of an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which is in the spectrum of the wavelengths emitted by the sun.

- the present invention describes a technique for obtaining particles which are formed from natural biopolymers which can deliver their actives (cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, agri-foods or agro-industrial actives) under the action of light, and this at doses which are more compatible with a moderate exposure of the order of a day, even a dose of a few hours for cosmetic applications for example.

- these particles or compositions are used for protecting or repairing the skin during or after an exposure to such electromagnetic waves, notably to a solar and/UV radiation.
- the active is rapidly released at the same moment as when the skin needs it.
- These particles or compositions can also be used advantageously for releasing, according to the intensity of the energy of the radiation, an active principle, which is either badly tolerated by the skin, or which would penetrate too rapidly into the skin, such as a solar filter, notably with the aim of releasing this active only in case of need.
- the invention can in fact be used for slowing down to the maximum the penetration of an active that is known to be very rapidly absorbed or is badly “tolerated” by the skin, such as a solar filter for example.

Abstract
Description
- The invention relates mainly to a particle comprising at least one biopolymer which is degradable under the effect of an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which is in the spectrum of the wavelengths emitted by the sun, this biopolymer comprising nucleosides.
- More particularly, the invention finds cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, agri-food or agro-industrial use, in releasing an active principle contained by this particle when it is subjected to an electromagnetic wave.
- With the aim of better mastering the bioavailability and the release of a microencapsulated active, many studies have been made so as to develop microcapsules or microspheres which release their actives under the influence of physical factors such as pH or temperature.
- For pharmaceutical applications, the use of pH-dependent polymers such as Eudragit® S and L (Bayer), cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate has enabled the development of gastro-resistant microspheres which release a low amount of an active in an acid medium (0.1N HCl) but which have very rapid release kinetics after a sharp increase of the pH (towards 6-7) (Palmieri et al, 2002, J. Microencaps., 19, 1, 111-119; Lorenzo et al, 1997, J. Microencaps., 14, 5, 607-616). These polymers do in fact have the property of being insoluble at acidic pHs and dissolve only towards pHs neighboring 5 to 6. Thus, the microencapsulated active is not very much released in a gastric medium (which is very acidic), and this enables for example reducing the risks of irritation of the gastric mucosa, which phenomena are observed for many chemical compounds.
- More recently, pieces of work on N-isopropylacrylamide, butyl methacrylate and acrylic acid have enabled developing microspheres which are both pH- and heat-sensitive (Ramkissoon-Ganorkar et al., 1999, J. Control. Release, 59, 287-298; Ichikawa et al., 2000, J. Control. Release, 63, 107-119). These techniques enable using the variations of pH and temperature in order to load the microsphere with active or in order to trigger off the release of the microencapsulated active. However, these compounds are highly toxic and this limits their uses in cosmetics (Vyas et al., 1985, Neurotoxicology, 6, 3, 123-132; Hayashi et al., 1989, Arch. Toxicol., 63, 4, 308-313).
- Apart from the stimuli such as the pH or the temperature, it would seem particularly interesting to develop microspheres or microcapsules which release their actives under the action of light and/or ultra-violets (UV). The spheres or capsules thus obtained could in fact release anti-oxidants, solar filters or molecules enabling inducing a barrier effect, only when the skin really needs it, the encapsulation enabling avoiding the skin contact and penetration of certain actives which are particularly irritant, even allergenic (vitamin A, vitamin E, solar filters, perfumes, etc . . . ). However, for many polymers which are commonly used in micro-encapsulation, ultra-violets cause a splitting and then an immediate rearrangement of their constituent chemical structures-(radical photo-polymerization), thus leading to a cross-linking and then to the formation of polymers, which are sometimes even more resistant. This is the case notably with collagen (Weadock et al., 1996, J. Biomed. Mater. Res., 32, 2, 221-226; Lee et al., 2001, Yonsei Med. J., 42, 2, 172-179) or with certain derivatives of gelatin (Murthy et al., 1989, Pharm. Technol., 13, 72; Van Den Bulcke et al., 2000, Biomacromolecules, 1, 1, 31-38).
- Some polymers are themselves degraded by light or ultra-violets. This is the case with certain polyethylene films (Geetha et al., 1987, Polym. Deg. Stab., 19, 279-292) which can notably contain styrene-butadiene copolymers (Getlichermann et al., 1994, Polym. Deg. Stab., 43, 343-352). These films undergo a photo-oxidation, and then a fragmentation of their structures, under the action of solar radiation. Industrially, these products are used for coating agricultural fertilizers, with, as the effect sought after, a progressive release as a function of the solar exposure. However, the doses of solar energy which are necessary for the degradation of the film are very significant (500,000 kJ/m2), doses which correspond to more than 15 days of exposure in full Summer (Getlichermann et al., 1994, Polym. Deg. Stab., 43, 343-352) and which are therefore incompatible with the rapid degradation expected during a daily solar exposure (as an indication, the daily solar energy received varies from 5,000 to 10,000 kJ/m2).
- Certain derivatives of N-isopropylacrylamide can also acquire a very interesting reactivity to ultra-violets by grafting of a UV-photosensitive molecule such as bis(4-dimethylamino)phenylmethyl leucocyanide (Mamada et al., 1990, Macromolecules, 23, 1517-1519). The ultra-violet light first of all creates an ionization reaction in the gel formed from this polymer, and this leads to an increase in the internal osmotic pressure and a swelling of the gel. In the absence of ultra-violet light, the equilibrium is reversed and the gel beaks up, it is said that the gel “collapses”.
- In the same way, the grafting of chromophores which are sensitive to light, such as, for example, the chlorophyllin-copper complex or its trisodium salts, onto N-isopropylacrylamide polymers enables obtaining gels which are reactive to visible light (Suzuki et al., 1990, Nature, 1990, 346, 26, 345-347; Qiu et al., 2001, Adv. Drug. Deliv. Rev., 53, 321-339). When the light is applied onto the hydrogel, the chromophore absorbs the solar energy to locally transform it into heat, in thus increasing the temperature of the gel. As the gels obtained are also heat-sensitive, the increase in the temperature thus leads to a contraction of the gel. The use of these gels in microspheres could enable a release of the active at the moment at which the gel contracts.
- However, a high toxicity of the molecules formed from the isopropylacrylamide does not facilitate the use of this technique in cosmetics (Vyas et al., 1985, Neurotoxicology, 6, 3, 123-132; Hayashi et al., 1989, Arch. Toxicol., 63, 4, 308-313).
- Few pieces of work describe the use of natural polymers for preparing microspheres or microcapsules having properties of release of the active encapsulated under UV irradiation or light.
- With this in mind, Yui's group (Yui et al., 1993, J. Controlled Release, 26, 141-145) proposed the use of a gel of hyaluronic acid coupled to a photosensitizer, methylene blue, as support medium of the microspheres. Under the effect of the light, there is a production of OHo radicals which de-polymerize and fluidify the hyaluronic acid gel, and thus enable the degradation of the spheres and the release of the active principles.
- Pieces of work by Asker et al. (Asker et al., 1997, PDA J Pharm Sci Technol., 51, 3, 125-129) have shown that microcapsules made from ethyl cellulose were particularly degraded under ultra-violets. However, it was necessary to irradiate the samples for 7 days and under wavelengths of 230-270 nm (UVC). Now, UVCs, which are very strong energy radiations which do not meet the earth's surface very much (Cesarini, 2002, Nouv. Dermatol., 21, 2, 30-36). The experimental conditions selected are thus quite far from the realistic conditions of use in the case of a cosmetic application.
- Very few publications exist in relation to the development of microspheres or microcapsules which deliver their actives after solar and/or UV irradiation. Either the products developed react only with radiations which do not approach very much the solar spectrum received on earth (UVC for example), or the amounts of energy necessary for the degradation of the polymer are too significant to envisage a rapid mechanism of action in case of daily use, and notably in case of a cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, agri-food or agro-industrial use. Moreover, the toxicity of all the photoreactive polymers obtained by organic synthesis hitherto remains a brake for their cosmetic use.
- A main aim of the invention is to solve the novel technical problem consisting of providing particles which are formed from natural biopolymers, which can deliver active principles which are optionally contained by these particles, under the action of an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which is in the spectrum of the wavelengths emitted by the sun.
- Another aim of the invention is to solve the novel technical problem consisting of providing such particles which contain an active principle which is active in the field of cosmetics, dermatology, pharmacy, agri-food or agro-industry.
- Another main aim of the invention is to solve the novel technical problem consisting of providing a cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, agri-food or agro-industrial composition, comprising at least one particle as defined above.
- Another aim of the invention is to solve the technical problem consisting of providing a solution enabling releasing an active principle in relation with the exposure to an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which corresponds to that emitted by the sun.
- Thus, the present invention describes a technique for obtaining particles which are formed from natural biopolymers which can deliver their actives (cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, agri-foods or agro-industrial actives) under the action of light, and this at doses which are more compatible with a moderate exposure of the order of a day, even a dose of a few hours for cosmetic applications for example.
- The microspheres or microcapsules, nanospheres and nanocapsules, liposomes, which are described in the present invention, are made by the use of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), ribonucleic acid (RNA), of oligonucleotides or of oligonucleosides. These compounds are in fact classically known for their sensitivity to UV radiation, a sensitivity which can induce, in vivo, mutations of the genes carried by these structures within the chromosomes for example.
- Thus, in the presence of UV radiation and of oxygen, there is a production of free radicals which cleave, at numerous locations, DNA molecules, oligonucleotides, as well as RNA molecules (Dobrov et al., 1989, Photochem. Photobiol., 49, 5, 595-598). The inventors had the idea of using this property which is generally considered to be negative and as being harmful to the integrity of the chromosomal property of the cells, as a beneficial property within the context of the invention, the DNA, RNA molecules, the oligonucleotides and oligonucleosides thus being used as polymers for constituting the membranes of the spheres or of the liposomes thus formed.
- Thus, under solar irradiation and more particularly under UV, the free radicals formed (Hanson et al., 2002, Photochem. Photobiol., 76, 1, 57-63) <<hydrolyze >> the DNA, RNA molecules, the oligonucleotides or the oligonucleosides which constitute the membrane of the sphere, of the capsule or of the liposome. Thus, in proportion to the dose of the radiation received, there is a production of free radicals for example on the skin, which progressively cause a local rupture of the membrane of the sphere, of the capsule or of the liposome, and thus enable releasing the active.
- According to a first aspect, the invention relates to a particle comprising at least one biopolymer which is degradable under the effect of an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which is in the spectrum of the wavelengths emitted by the sun, this biopolymer comprising nucleosides.
- Advantageously, the biopolymer is selected from the group consisting of a DNA, an RNA, an oligonucleotide, an oligonucleoside, or one of a mixture of these.
- Advantageously, the biopolymer is selected from the group consisting of DNA of marine origin, RNA of marine origin, DNA of plant origin, RNA of plant origin, oligo-antisenses, polyamide nucleic acids (PNA), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), messenger RNAs or mRNAs, hybrid molecules containing an oligonucleosidic and/or oligonucleotidic part, and oligonucleosides and oligonucleotides having chemical modifications such as graftings of hydrophobic molecules.
- Advantageously, the particle is a microcapsule, a nanocapsule, a microsphere, a nanosphere, a liposome, or any mixture of these particles.
- Advantageously, the size of the microcapsules or of the microspheres is between 1 and 100 μm, preferably between 2 and 80 μm.
- Advantageously, the size of the nanocapsules or of the nanospheres is between 10 nm and less than 1 μm, preferably between 20 and 900 nm.
- Advantageously, the particle contains at least one active principle, which is preferably topically acceptable, and which can be released under the effect of a solar radiation and/or UV radiation.
- The invention has the advantageous particularity that the release of the active principle is effected in relation with the intensity of the energy of the radiation.
- Very advantageously, the invention notably enables the release of a sufficient amount of the active principle in a period of about 24 hours after exposure to a radiation of energy sufficient to cause such a release.
- Advantageously, the release of a sufficient amount of the active principle is effected during an exposure to a radiation of energy greater than 200 kJ/m2, preferably greater than 4,000 kJ/m2.
- The invention is notably particularly pertinent for encapsulating a liposoluble or hydrosoluble active principle.
- Advantageously, the active principle is selected from the group consisting of antioxidants, moisturizing agents, solar filters, perfumes, vitamins, co-enzymes, anti-bacterial agents and preservatives, moisturising actives, <<anti-age>> actives, skin barrier tonics namely helping to restore the skin barrier, active principles which protect from a solar radiation and/or UV radiation, active principles which repair the skin during or after an exposure to a solar radiation and/or UV radiation, as well as any active principle the progressive release of which is necessary to control by linking it to the dose of radiation, and notably of UV, applied, active principles which are badly absorbed by the skin, and one of a mixture of these.
- The mixture of various active principles having or not having a synergistic effect notably enables realizing a combined and/or intensified action.
- The invention can notably be realized by cross-linking, notably by interfacial polymerization, with a cross-linking agent notably selected from the group consisting of dichlorides of organic acids such as fumaric acid, sebacic acid, azelaic-acid, terephthalic acid, phthalic acid, succinic-acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, dichlorides of tricarboxylic acids, such as citric acid, trichlorides of tricarboxilic acids, such as citric acid, acid dianhydrides, diisocyanates, dialdehydes such as glutaraldehyde and formaldehyde, and di-epoxides.
- According to a second aspect, the invention relates to a cosmetic, dermatological, pharmaceutical, or agri-food composition comprising at least one particle, as defined above, or one of the various possible mixtures of these particles.
- Advantageously, this composition further comprises an excipient, such as an agent selected from the group consisting of preservatives, gelling agents, which are hydrophilic or lipophilic, solvents, emulsifiers, co-emulsifiers, moisteners, thickeners, stabilizers, antioxidants, solar filters, pigments, colorant materials, organic or inorganic fillers, perfumes, and odor absorbers.
- Advantageously, this composition is formulated in a form which is acceptable cosmetically, dermatologically, pharmaceutically, for agri-food or agro-industrially, notably in a form selected from the group consisting of a solution, which is aqueous or oily, a cream or an aqueous gel or an oily gel, notably in a pot or in a tube, notably a shower gel, a shampoo; a milk; an emulsion, a microemulsion or a nanoemulsion, which is notably oil-in-water or water-in-oil or multiple or silicone-containing; a lotion, notably in a glass bottle, a plastic bottle, a measure bottle, an aerosol, or in a spray; an ampoule; a liquid soap; a dermatological bar; an ointment; a foam; and an anhydrous product, preferably which is liquid, pasty or solid, e.g. in a form of a stick, notably in a form of lipstick.
- According to a third aspect, the invention relates to the use of particles as defined above, or of a composition as defined above, for releasing an active, during an exposure of the particles to an electromagnetic wave, notably the wavelength of which is in the spectrum of the wavelengths emitted by the sun, notably in relation with the intensity of the energy of the electromagnetic wave.
- Advantageously, these particles or compositions are used for protecting or repairing the skin during or after an exposure to such electromagnetic waves, notably to a solar and/UV radiation.
- Thus, the active is rapidly released at the same moment as when the skin needs it.
- These particles or compositions can also be used advantageously for releasing, according to the intensity of the energy of the radiation, an active principle, which is either badly tolerated by the skin, or which would penetrate too rapidly into the skin, such as a solar filter, notably with the aim of releasing this active only in case of need.
- The invention can in fact be used for slowing down to the maximum the penetration of an active that is known to be very rapidly absorbed or is badly “tolerated” by the skin, such as a solar filter for example. From this fad, this active will be released only in case of real need, i.e. notably in case of a prolonged solar exposure.
- The invention can also be used progressively releasing an active throughout the day, either with a view to improving its release throughout the whole day, e.g. with a view to the progressive release of an anti-oxidant for protecting the skin, of a substance enabling the reconstruction of the skin barrier for a progressive reconstruction, of a perfume for a release throughout the whole day, of UV filters for a progressive protection against UVs, of moisturising active principles for a long term moisturization, of anti-age actives for a release throughout the whole day, of anti-microbial agents or of preservatives for anti-microbial effects arising progressively throughout the whole day, etc. . . . From this fact, these actives encapsulated in such particles will be released only in case of real need, i.e. notably in case of a prolonged solar exposure.
- The invention finds a cosmetic, dermatological or pharmaceutical use essentially by application of these particles or compositions via the topical route on a living being, notably on a human being or on an animal. From this fact, the invention can very advantageously be implemented by incorporating, within the particles, active principles enabling protecting or repairing the skin of a subject in a controlled manner as a function of the solar exposure.
- A agri-food or agro-industrial use of these particles or compositions notably by application around a seed, on the leaves of a plant, on the entire plant, on a part of the plant, on the base of the plant, on the roots of the plant, or around the plant, can advantageously be found in releasing an active principle said seed or plant of which would be in need thereof, or for providing an indication of a need of said seed or plant (fertilizer, pesticide, herbicide, for example).
- According to a fourth aspect, the invention relates to a method of cosmetic care, characterised in that particles as defined above, or a composition as defined above, containing at least one a cosmetic active principle, is/are applied on the skin, and/or on the body hairs, and/or on the hair, and in that the particles, which are alone or in a mixture so as to form a cosmetic composition, degrade during an exposure to the sun, and release at least one active principle, thus enabling providing an indication of the effects of the sun on the skin, and/or on the body hairs, and/or on the hair, and/or providing a beneficial effect to the skin, and/or to the body hairs and/or to the hair, during an exposure to the sun.
- According to a fifth aspect, the invention relates to a method of treatment of a plant, characterised in that particles, as defined above, or a composition as defined above, containing at least one food active principle, is/are applied around the seed, on the leaves of a plant, on the entire plant, on a part of the plant, on the base of the plant, on the roots of the plant, or around the plant, and in that the particles, which are alone or in a mixture so as to form a agri-food composition, degrade during an exposure to the sun, and thus release at least one active principle enabling providing an indication to the plant of the effects of the sun and/or treating at least one harmful effect linked to an exposure to the sun and/or improving the benefits linked to an exposure to the sun.
- In the present invention, by <<an electromagnetic wave>>, the inventors mean a whole of electromagnetic waves which are able or not to have the same wavelength.
- Within the context of the present invention, the wavelengths emitted by the sun are notably comprised as being the electromagnetic wavelengths which correspond to the range of infra-red, but more particularly ultraviolet waves (UV), which roughly corresponds to but in no way are limited to, wavelengths of between 10−8 and 4.10−7m and visible waves, which also roughly correspond to, but are in no way limited to, wavelengths of between 400 and 800 nm.

- g) The microcapsules recovered are then optionally placed in suspension in a gel (hydrophilic, lipophilic, or silicone type) containing or not containing preservatives, which can be used in any cosmetic or pharmaceutical preparation. These microcapsules can also be dried (by atomization for example) and then sterilized by radiation, in order to be used in any type of application wherein the dry forms might be preferred (use in oily or silicone solutions for example).
- Sensitivity to Solar Irradiation of Various Polymers
- Various polymers, which are used classically in cosmetics for microencapsulation, were used for preparing the control microcapsules, according to the protocol described in Example 1. Thus, for example, microspheres were made from collagen and glycosaminoglycans according to the patent FR 2,642,329 (U.S. Pat. No. 5,395,620) (COLETICA), from plant proteins from wheat or from lupin according to the patent FR 2,766,090 (U.S. Pat. No. 5,912,016) (COLETICA), or from polysaccharides such as acacia according to the patent FR 2,688,422 (U.S. Pat. No. 5,562,924) (COLETICA).
- A liposoluble colorant, having an absorption peak at 582 nm, was introduced in the oily phase.
- The microspheres prepared in Example 1, as well as those prepared with the various polymers described above, are diluted to 25% (w/w) in a carbomer gel. 87.5 g of pure laboratory water containing 0.5% of sodium tricitrate are then added to 12.5 g of the gel thus obtained. The pH of the suspension of spheres thus obtained is adjusted to 5 with 1N HCl.
- 0.5 ml of this suspension are thus deposited in a pyrex hydrolysis tube. The tubes are then placed, laid down, in a solar irradiator (Suntest CP+, Atlas) reproducing the solar light spectrum. After irradiation, 3.5 ml of pure laboratory water, and then 2 ml of an organic solvent, isobutyl methyl ketone are added to each tube. Each test is then vortexed for 30 seconds at 2,000 rpm. The oil which is non-encapsulated or released under irradiation is then extracted in the organic phase and a reading of the optical density (OD) at 582 nm is then made. The greater the amount of oil released, the higher the OD is. By subtraction with the value of OD obtained for a non-irradiated sample and in comparing this value to the maximum OD being able to be obtained for a complete hydrolysis of the spheres, the percentage opening of the spheres under solar radiation is thus obtained which corresponds to the amount of oil released.
- The solar irradiator used, by virtue of its xenon arc lamp, enables re-creating the solar radiation the most accurately as possible (spectral range 300-3,000 nm).
- Table 1 gives the average daily irradiations received at various points of the earth's globe (energy measured between 300 and 800 nm).
- Moreover, so as to quantify in real terms the amount of energy received by the samples, we use either a solar radiometer (Sunstest CP+, Atlas) which measures the energy received between 300 and 800 nm, or a UV radiometer (VLX 3 W, Fisher) specifically measuring the UVAs (peak at 365 nm) or UVBs (peak at 312 nm).
TABLE 1 Solar energies received per day at various regions of the earth's globe Average energy delivered between 300 and 800 nm (corresponds to what the Region solar irradiator measures) Florida 9,315 kJ/m2/day Arizona 12,602 kJ/m2/day Central Europe 5,616 kJ/m2/day Bandol region 7,945 kJ/m2/day - The various microcapsules prepared received a solar irradiation of 3,804 kJ/M2 and then the percentage opening under solar irradiation was calculated.
- The results obtained are presented in Table 2.

- Study of the Influence of the pH on the Opening of the Microcapsules Prepared from Marine DNA
- The protocol followed is the same as that described in Example 3. The pH of the suspensions of spheres is adjusted to 5, 6, 7 or 8 before undergoing an irradiation at 2,000 kJ/m2 and then the percentage opening under solar irradiation is calculated.
TABLE 3 Opening of the spheres as a function of the pH pH of the suspension of microcapsules % opening under prepared irradiation of 2,400 kJ/m2 5 19.8 +/− 6.1 6 9.0 +/− 1.2 7 6.1 +/− 2.9 8 19.3 +/− 6 - The opening of the spheres happens the most at pH 5 and at
pH 8, but remains significant over all the range of cosmetic or dermopharmaceutical formulations. - Evolution of the Opening of the Spheres as a Function of the Dose of Energy Received
- Three types of microcapsules were prepared from collagen and marine glycosaminoglycans, from a mixture of polysaccharides and plant proteins extracted from acacia and from marine DNA according to the protocol described in Example 1.
- The microcapsules were then irradiated at various doses and the amount of oil released was quantified according to the technique described in Example 3. The percentages opening obtained are given in Table 4.
TABLE 4 Percentages opening of various types of microcapsules as a function of several doses of solar energy Irradiation Irradiation Irradiation Irradiation 1,243 kJ/m2 2,467 kJ/m2 3,804 kJ/m2 4,927 kJ/m2 Microcapsules based on 1.7 +/− 1.5 1.6 +/− 1.3 7.5 +/− 3.2 16.6 +/− 8.8 marine collagen Microcapsules based on 0 +/− 0.6 0.3 +/− 2.7 3.5 +/− 1.5 6.7 +/− 3.4 polysaccharides and proteins extracted from acacia gum Microcapsules based on 11.9 +/− 4.5 18.3 +/− 3 29.7 +/− 5.8 79.9 +/− 0.1 marine DNA - The more the energy delivered, the more the opening of the spheres containing the marine DNA is. Furthermore, the standard deviation of the percentage opening between the microcapsules based on marine DNA and the other microcapsules increases the greater the irradiation energy is.
- Microscopic Observation of the Microcapsules After Solar Irradiation
- The spheres based on DNA which were prepared according to Example 1, and control microspheres prepared from collagen and glycosaminoglycans according to Example 5, are irradiated under solar light (solar irradiator), at a dose of 2,800 kJ/m2. The products of the invention (FIGS. 1 and 2) as well as the control microspheres (FIGS. 3 and 4) are observed before and after irradiation: it is observed that only the microspheres of the invention have a membrane which is degraded under the action of the UV, the membrane of the control microspheres being not at all degraded under the same conditions.
