Abstract

The solubility of kinetin and/or of zeatin is increased when either or both are combined in a formulation that includes a polyoxyalkylene-n-glycerol dicarboxylate component and a fatty acid component. These two components provide a synergistic increase in the solubility of kinetin and/or zeatin that is greater than that which would be expected based on the solubility of kinetin and zeatin in the individual components.

Claims (11)

1. A method for increasing the solubility of kinetin and/or zeatin comprising combining the kinetin and/or zeatin in a formulation that includes a polyoxyalkylene-n-glycerol dicarboxylate component and a fatty acid component, wherein the amounts of the polyoxyalkylene-n-glycerol dicarboxylate and the fatty acid are sufficient to provide a synergistic increase in the solubility of the kinetin and/or the zeatin in the formulation.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the polyoxyalkylene of the polyoxyalkylene-n-glycerol dicarboxylate component is selected from the group consisting of paraformaldehyde, polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, and polytetramethylene glycol.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein the glyceryl dicarboxylate of the polyoxyalkylene-n-glycerol dicarboxylate component is selected from the group consisting of glyceryl dilaurate, glyceryl diarachidate, glyceryl dibehenate, glyceryl dierucate, glyceryl dihydroxystearate, glyceryl diisopalmitate, glyceryl diisostearate, glyceryl dilinoleate, glyceryl dimyristate, glyceryl dioleate, glyceryl diricinoleate, glyceryl dipalmitate, glyceryl dipalmitoleate, glyceryl distearate, glyceryl palmitate lactate, glyceryl stearate citrate, glyceryl stearate lactate, and glyceryl stearate succinate.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein the fatty acid component comprises one or more fatty acids that are liquid at room temperature or that have a branched or unbranched chain of 12 to 20 carbons.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein the fatty acid component is a mixture of branched and straight-chain unsaturated C18 fatty acids.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein the fatty acid component is a mixture of fatty acids having between 12 and 20 carbons.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein the fatty acid component comprises a mixture of fatty acids.

8. The method of claim 7 wherein the mixture of fatty acids comprises branched and straight chain fatty acids.

9. The method of claim 7 wherein the mixture of fatty acids comprises saturated and unsaturated fatty acids.

10. The method of claim 1 wherein the polyoxyalkylene-n-glycerol dicarboxylate component is PEG-12 Glycerol dimyristate or PEG-12 Glycerol dioleate.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein the fatty acid is isostearic acid.
