Claims15
A composition comprising an octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1),
- wherein the wavy line is either a cis- or trans-configuration, or a salt thereof,
- and an additional sweetener other than the octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1) or salt thereof.
A method for reinforcing the sweetness of a sweetener, the method comprising
- (a) administering or taking an octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1),
- wherein the wavy line is either a cis- or trans-configuration, or a salt thereof,
- followed by
- (b) administering or taking a sweetener other than the octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1) or salt thereof,
- to or by a target.
A method of imparting sweetness to, or adjusting the sweetness of, a food or a drug, the method comprising adding an octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1),
- wherein the wavy line is either a cis- or trans-configuration,
- or a salt thereof to the food or drug.
A composition comprising an epithelial sodium channel inhibitor that comprises
- an octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1),
- wherein the wavy line is either a cis- or trans-configuration,
- or a salt thereof,
- as an active ingredient,
- wherein the composition is a dentifrice, a mouthwash or a gingiva massage cream, and
- wherein the composition also contains a salty substance.
A method of inhibiting the saltiness of a composition comprising a salty substance, the method comprising
- (a) administering or taking a saltiness inhibiting amount of an octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1):
- wherein the wavy line is either cis- or trans-configuration, or a salt thereof and,
- (b) administering or taking the composition that comprises the salty substance to or by a target in need of the inhibiting.
A method of inhibiting an epithelial sodium channel, the method comprising administering or taking of an effective amount of the octenyl sulfate ester of Formula (1):
- wherein the wavy line is either a cis- or trans-configuration,
- or a salt thereof
- to or by a target in need thereof.
