USE OF POLYANIONIC AND POLYANIONICALLY-DERIVATISED NATURAL POLYSACCHARIDES FOR INHIBITING ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE

摘要

A description is given of the use of polyanionic and polyanionically-derivatised natural polysaccharides or non-derivatised natural polysaccharides for inhibiting alkaline phosphatase and of oral compositions for preventing bacterial plaque, which comprises (a) 0 to 10% by weight of at least one linear molecularly dehydrated polyphosphate salt, and (b) 0.0001 to 5% by weight of a polyanionic or polyanionically-derivatised natural polysaccharide.
