<p>Jojoba alcohol, an oily liquid at moderate ambient temperatures, is readily absorbed by human skin where it relieves irritation and inhibits the formation of lesions caused by viruses. The inhibitory action is applicable to enveloped viruses which express as sores at dermal surfaces in human. When applied topically to an incipient herpes episode, it will quickly penetrate the epidermis to the subdermal cells and suppress viral replication which leads to inflammation and the formation of blisters on the face, genital and other skin and mucosal areas. Compositions of low molecular weight organic acids in jojoba alcohol enhance antiviral activity. Jojoba alcohol is a transdermal delivery system for these virucidal acids and other pharmacologically active agents. Topically applied jojoba alcohol is non-toxic to small animals and humans. Jojoba alcohol prepared here by chemical hydrogenolysis of jojoba oil is a mixture principally of mono unsaturated alcohols with 14 to 24 linear carbons in the chain.</p> |
