- An oxygen-based emulsion such as a Supersaturated Oxygen Emulsion (SSOE) described in detail herein is a biocompatible emulsion comprising perfluorodecalin (PFD), and is manufactured in hyperbaric conditions and configured to rapidly and continuously release oxygen.
- SSOE technology harnesses high levels of oxygen with proven stability over time and delivers oxygen to targeted tissue with rapid and sustainable release.
- Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) are inert chemicals with great biocompatibility and oxygen- dissolving capacity. At room temperature, the solubility of oxygen (O2) is 40% or more in PFC, compared to 2.5% in water, 2.5% in plasma, and 20% in whole blood.
- PFD has been most widely used in medical applications due to its high oxygen-carrying capacity, dissolving 49 mL of oxygen per 100 mL of PFD at room temperature and pressure.
- PFCs including PFD are hydrophobic and therefore must be emulsified to promote water solubility.
- Embodiments described herein include use of two surfactants, Phospholipon 90H and Polawax, to emulsify the PFD emulsion but are not so limited.
- topical composition refers to any formulation that is applied [0020] to the skin.
- topical application is application of a topical composition to the skin (e.g., by applying and gently rubbing into skin surface).
- “treat” or “treating” means one or more of relieving, alleviating, delaying, reducing, reversing, improving, or managing at least one symptom of a disease, disorder, or concern in a subject.
- the disease, disorder, or concern is acne or a wound.
- phospholipid source refers to a composition comprising at least 85 % phospholipids by weight.
- Fluorocarbon as used herein includes a fluorinated hydrocarbon in which at least one hydrogen atom is replaced by a fluorine atom.
- Perfluorocarbon as used herein includes a substantially fluorinated or completely fluorinated material which is generally, but not necessarily, a liquid at ambient temperature and pressure and which has the ability to transport gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.
- substantially fluorinated as used herein includes that most of the hydrogen atoms of a compound have been replaced by fluorine atoms, such that further replacement does not substantially increase the gas transport capability of the material.
- Embodision as used herein includes a system comprising a liquid dispersed with or without an emulsifier in an immiscible liquid in a form of stable (non-coalescing) droplets or microdroplets.
- Continuous phase as used herein includes the carrier phase of an emulsion, wherein the fluid elements are in continuous contact and not isolated from one another.
- Dispersed phase as used herein includes the phase of an emulsion, wherein the fluid elements are discrete and isolated from one another, as in the form of droplets or microdroplets, or contained within micelles.
- Thickening agent as used herein includes a chemical agent having the property that, when added to a liquid mixture, increases its viscosity, or resistance to flow.
- “Viscous solution” as used herein includes a solution with viscosity greater than about 50 cp, and which may or may not be dependent upon applied shear and/or temperature.
- “Gel” as used herein includes a semisolid that behaves like a solid at rest. Gels may flow at higher shear rates due to their shear thinning properties. The viscosity of gels may range from a thickened pourable liquid gel to a soft solid stick.
- Liquid Crystals as used herein includes orderly planes of oil and water separated by layers of surfactant. Under certain conditions, a combination of oil, water and surfactant will, instead of forming micelles, result in the formation of such liquid crystals.
- the liquid crystals may co-exist with regular emulsions.
- the presence of liquid crystals enhances the stability of the emulsion due to the formation of a covering “skin” around the droplets and also due to the formation of a three-dimensional network through the continuous phase.
- the covering “skin” prevents the coalescence of droplets.
- a layered structure also reduces the van der Waals attraction between the droplets, inhibiting coalescence.
- the three-dimensional network reduces the ability of the droplets to move within the continuous phase.

Any emulsifying agents capable of dispersing fluorocarbon may be used. However, preferably, the emulsifying agent is a non-fluorinated compound.
- the emulsifying agent is preferably biocompatible (non-irritating) and should result in an emulsion have a sufficient shelf life.
- biocompatible, non-fluorinated compounds include but are not limited to a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, phospholipids, and a polyoxyethylene derivative of a fatty acid ester of sorbitan.
- the block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide is a triblock copolymer of ethylene and propylene oxide with an average molecular weight of 7680 to 9510 and 81 wt % oxyethylene (poloxamer 188) or PLURONIC® F-68 (BASF Corporation, Mount Olive, N.J.).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE [0014] Oxygen plays a vital role in wound healing, and oxygen therapy is shown herein to be beneficial in treating damaged tissue and skin conditions. An oxygen-based emulsion such as a Supersaturated Oxygen Emulsion (SSOE) described in detail herein is a biocompatible emulsion comprising perfluorodecalin (PFD), and is manufactured in hyperbaric conditions and configured to rapidly and continuously release oxygen. SSOE technology harnesses high levels of oxygen with proven stability over time and delivers oxygen to targeted tissue with rapid and sustainable release. [0015] Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) are inert chemicals with great biocompatibility and oxygen- dissolving capacity. At room temperature, the solubility of oxygen (O2) is 40% or more in PFC, compared to 2.5% in water, 2.5% in plasma, and 20% in whole blood. Of all PFCs, PFD has been most widely used in medical applications due to its high oxygen-carrying capacity, dissolving 49 mL of oxygen per 100 mL of PFD at room temperature and pressure. PFCs including PFD are hydrophobic and therefore must be emulsified to promote water solubility. Embodiments described herein include use of two surfactants, Phospholipon 90H and Polawax, to emulsify the PFD emulsion but are not so limited. The emulsions described in detail herein can comprise at least one of a viscous solution, liquid crystal, cream, foam, gel, liquid, and spray but are not so limited. Definitions [0016] The following terms are intended to have the following general meaning as they may be used herein. The terms are not however limited to the meanings stated herein as the
meanings of any term can include other meanings as understood or applied by one skilled in the art. [0017] The use of the terms “a” and “an” and “the” and similar referents in the context of describing the disclosure (especially in the context of the following claims) are to be construed to cover both the singular and the plural, unless otherwise indicated herein or clearly contradicted by context. The terms “comprising,” “having,” “including,” and “containing” are to be construed as open-ended terms (i.e., meaning “including, but not limited to,”) unless otherwise noted. Recitation of ranges of values herein are merely intended to serve as a shorthand method of referring individually to each separate value falling within the range, unless otherwise indicated herein, and each separate value is incorporated into the specification as if it were individually recited herein. For example, if the range 10-15 is disclosed, then 11, 12, 13, and 14 are also disclosed. [0018] The term “about” refers to plus or minus 10% of the referenced number unless otherwise stated or otherwise evident by the context, and except where such a range would exceed 100 % of a possible value, or fall below 0 % of a possible value, such as less than 0 % content of an ingredient, or more than 100 % of the total contents of a composition. The term “about” is used synonymously with the term “approximately.” [0019] As used herein, the term “topical composition” refers to any formulation that is applied [0020] to the skin. In some embodiments, the disclosure describes “topical application” of the topical composition. As defined herein, “topical application” is application of a topical composition to the skin (e.g., by applying and gently rubbing into skin surface). [0021] As used herein, “treat” or “treating” means one or more of relieving, alleviating, delaying, reducing, reversing, improving, or managing at least one symptom of a disease, disorder, or concern in a subject. In embodiments, the disease, disorder, or concern is acne or a wound. [0022] The term “phospholipid source” refers to a composition comprising at least 85 % phospholipids by weight. [0023] “Fluorocarbon” as used herein includes a fluorinated hydrocarbon in which at least one hydrogen atom is replaced by a fluorine atom.
[0024] “Perfluorocarbon” as used herein includes a substantially fluorinated or completely fluorinated material which is generally, but not necessarily, a liquid at ambient temperature and pressure and which has the ability to transport gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide. “Substantially fluorinated” as used herein includes that most of the hydrogen atoms of a compound have been replaced by fluorine atoms, such that further replacement does not substantially increase the gas transport capability of the material. This level is thought to be reached when at least about 80-90% of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced by fluorine atoms. [0025] “Emulsion” as used herein includes a system comprising a liquid dispersed with or without an emulsifier in an immiscible liquid in a form of stable (non-coalescing) droplets or microdroplets. [0026] “Continuous phase” as used herein includes the carrier phase of an emulsion, wherein the fluid elements are in continuous contact and not isolated from one another. [0027] “Dispersed phase” as used herein includes the phase of an emulsion, wherein the fluid elements are discrete and isolated from one another, as in the form of droplets or microdroplets, or contained within micelles. [0028] “Thickening agent” as used herein includes a chemical agent having the property that, when added to a liquid mixture, increases its viscosity, or resistance to flow. [0029] “Viscous solution” as used herein includes a solution with viscosity greater than about 50 cp, and which may or may not be dependent upon applied shear and/or temperature. [0030] “Gel” as used herein includes a semisolid that behaves like a solid at rest. Gels may flow at higher shear rates due to their shear thinning properties. The viscosity of gels may range from a thickened pourable liquid gel to a soft solid stick. [0031] “Liquid Crystals” as used herein includes orderly planes of oil and water separated by layers of surfactant. Under certain conditions, a combination of oil, water and surfactant will, instead of forming micelles, result in the formation of such liquid crystals. The liquid crystals may co-exist with regular emulsions. The presence of liquid crystals enhances the stability of the emulsion due to the formation of a covering “skin” around the droplets and also due to the formation of a three-dimensional network through the continuous phase. The covering “skin”
prevents the coalescence of droplets. A layered structure also reduces the van der Waals attraction between the droplets, inhibiting coalescence. The three-dimensional network reduces the ability of the droplets to move within the continuous phase.

[0070] A particular formulation of the oxygen-based emulsion for wound care is now described in detail with the concentration of each component in the emulsion represented as a weight/weight percentage (%w/w) (calculated as the weight of the component or solute (in grams) per total weight of the solution (in grams) multiplied by 100%).

The emulsion is then supersaturated with medical grade oxygen gas in a high-pressure chamber. The resulting emulsion has a pH in the range of approximately 4.5- 7.4. A target pH is approximately 5.0 but embodiments are not so limited. [0072] Preparation of the example formulation of the oxygen-based emulsion of this embodiment can include numerous phases each of which involves the addition a set of the emulsion components.

A seventh phase comprises supersaturating the composition of the sixth phase with medical grade oxygen gas in a high-pressure chamber to form the SSOE as described in detail herein. [0073] Embodiments described in detail herein relate to the field of dermatology and cosmetology, specifically to a novel formulation of topical oxygen emulsion configured to treat hair loss and stimulate hair regrowth following hair replantation largely due to the fact that studies have shown hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) reduces the amount of post-surgical follicle shedding and improves healing rates post-surgery and increases the level of hair regrowth over medication alone.
[0074] Embodiments herein therefore include oxygen-based emulsions for use in treating hair loss and stimulating hair regrowth. The emulsions of embodiments described in detail herein generally include but are not limited to the following components: deionized water; butylene glycol; D,L-Panthenol powder; L-Arginine powder; Phospholipon 90H (liquid, non-aqueous concentrates of phospholipids in combination with oils or a water-miscible solvent); Polawax; Rejuvenox Perfluorodecalin (PFD); Squalane; C12-15 alkyl benzoate; Vitamin E acetate USP; Rosemary Essential Oil; AC Marine Protein Pure Spheres; Hyaluronic acid 1%; Symdiol 68; and Pentylene glycol (e.g., Hydrolite 5).

[0078] An example formulation of the oxygen-based emulsion of an alternative embodiment includes but is not limited to the following components: deionized water (40.80% w/w); butylene glycol (7.00% w/w); D,L-Panthenol powder (0.90% w/w); L-Arginine powder (0.50% w/w); Phospholipon 90H (liquid, non-aqueous concentrates of phospholipids in combination with oils or a water-miscible solvent) (10.00% w/w); Polawax (5.00% w/w); Rejuvenox Perfluorodecalin (PFD) (30.00% w/w); Squalane (0.50% w/w); C12-15 alkyl benzoate (1.00% w/w); Vitamin E acetate USP (0.50% w/w); Rosemary Essential Oil (0.25% w/w); AC Marine Protein Pure Spheres (0.05% w/w); Hyaluronic acid 1% (0.50% w/w); Symdiol 68 (1.00% w/w); and Pentylene glycol (e.g., Hydrolite 5) (2.00% w/w). [0079] Preparation of the example formulation of the oxygen-based emulsion of this alternative embodiment can include numerous phases each of which involves the addition a set of the emulsion components. For example, a first phase comprises mixing or blending of the following components: deionized water (40.80% w/w); butylene glycol (7.00% w/w); D,L- Panthenol powder (0.90% w/w); L-Arginine powder (0.50% w/w); and Phospholipon 90H (liquid, non-aqueous concentrates of phospholipids in combination with oils or a water- miscible solvent) (10.00% w/w). A second phase comprises adding Polawax (5.00% w/w) to the composition of the first phase.

A fifth phase comprises mixing or blending Hyaluronic acid 1% (0.50% w/w) to the composition of the fourth phase. A sixth phase comprises mixing or blending of the following components to the composition of the fifth phase: Symdiol 68 (1.00% w/w); and Pentylene glycol (e.g., Hydrolite 5) (2.00% w/w). A seventh phase comprises supersaturating the composition of the sixth phase with medical grade oxygen gas in a high- pressure chamber to form the SSOE.The SSOE comprises a dispersed phase of perfluorocarbon (PFC) droplets encapsulated within an aqueous continuous phase as described in detail herein. Perfluorodecalin (PFD), a PFC, is selected for its high oxygen solubility, chemical inertness, and biocompatibility, but embodiments are not so limited. The chemical ingredients of the emulsion described herein include PFD, water, humectants, lubricity enhancers, and emulsion stabilizers (surfactants). Mechanical agitation and homogenization of the heated ingredients forms a stable suspension of PFD microdroplets within the aqueous base. This emulsion is thermally and mechanically stable and will not separate into its constituent phases unless subjected to extreme conditions. [0080] A gas such as oxygen is added during the manufacturing process and after emulsification. The gas content of SSOE following loading into a pressurized canister is dependent on the PFD concentration and the gas charging pressure used in the manufacture of the emulsion. The gas content of SSOE increases linearly with charging pressures. For example, if oxygen is used, the standard processing conditions for SSOE with oxygen as the gas calls for oxygenation at elevated pressures of at least 180 psig (charging pressure) of medical grade oxygen (created supersaturated oxygen emulsion or SSOE). The final equilibrium concentration of dissolved oxygen at 180 psig is approximately 1.8 ml O2 (STP) per ml of emulsion. As a point of comparison, water at ambient conditions contains approximately 0.006 ml O2 per ml water. [0081] The SSOE of embodiments herein is packaged under pressure to maintain the level of dissolved oxygen in solubilized form. The container pressure is configured to be equal to or
greater than the oxygenation pressure to prevent outgassing. When SSOE is dispensed, oxygen is outgassed from the emulsion and exposes a target tissue, for example skin, to oxygen. [0082] The emulsion generally comprises a continuous fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid phase, and a dispersed phase comprising fluorocarbon suspended as droplets within the continuous phase. The emulsion further comprises an emulsifying agent and a stabilizing agent, wherein the stabilizing agent reduces the ability of the fluorocarbon droplets to move or coalesce within the continuous phase. [0083] The continuous fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid phase of the fluorocarbon emulsion of the present invention may include an aqueous phase and other water-miscible substances, such as glycerin, propylene glycol, short-chain alcohols, and other hydrophilic liquids. Such hydrophilic liquids mix readily with water and may be added individually or in combination to the continuous phase. [0084] The water-immiscible dispersed phase of the fluorocarbon emulsion comprises fluorocarbons or derivatives thereof. Fluorocarbons are chosen for their inert chemistry and high oxygen solubility (about twenty times greater than that of water). Substantially, any fluorocarbon may be used. Suitable fluorocarbons include, but are not limited to, linear, branched and cyclic fluorinated hydrocarbon compounds, derivatives and mixtures thereof. In one embodiment, fluorocarbon may be a PFC. Examples of acceptable PFCs include, but are not limited to, C6-C9 perfluoroalkanes, perfluoroperhydrofluoranthrene, perfluorodecalin, perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene, bis(perfluor-hexyl)-1,2-ethene, perfluoro-1,3- dimethylcyclohexane, perfluoromethyldecalin, perfluoroisopropyldecalin, a mixture of perfluorodixylylmethane and perfluorodixylylethane, and a mixture of perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene and perfluoro n-butyl decalin. [0085] Hydrogen atoms of the fluorocarbon may be substituted with a halogen, such as Br, Cl, or I, in addition to fluorine. In one embodiment, the PFC is perfluorooctyl bromide or perfluorooctyl iodine. In an alternative embodiment, a commercial product PFC 5080 (a product of 3M, St. Paul, Minn.) is used. PFC 5080 is a mixture of perfluorocarbons comprising predominately perfluorooctane.
[0086] The fluorocarbon emulsions may comprise fluorocarbons in the amount from about 2% to about 90% (wt/wt), preferably from about 10% to about 70% (wt/wt). However, fluorocarbon concentrations outside of the above ranges may also be used. [0087] Because fluorocarbons are oily compounds that are immiscible with water, an emulsifying agent is typically used to prepare a fluorocarbon-in-water emulsion. The emulsifying agent assists in dispersing fluorocarbon and stabilizing the emulsion. Any emulsifying agents capable of dispersing fluorocarbon may be used. However, preferably, the emulsifying agent is a non-fluorinated compound. In biomedical and cosmetic applications, additionally, the emulsifying agent is preferably biocompatible (non-irritating) and should result in an emulsion have a sufficient shelf life. [0088] Examples of such biocompatible, non-fluorinated compounds include but are not limited to a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, phospholipids, and a polyoxyethylene derivative of a fatty acid ester of sorbitan. In one embodiment, the block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide is a triblock copolymer of ethylene and propylene oxide with an average molecular weight of 7680 to 9510 and 81 wt % oxyethylene (poloxamer 188) or PLURONIC® F-68 (BASF Corporation, Mount Olive, N.J.). In another embodiment, the emulsifying agent is polyoxyethylene 20 sorbitan monostearate (polysorbate 60). [0089] In still another embodiment, a hydrogenated phospholipid is used. The hydrogenated phospholipid may be selected from the group consisting of hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphanolipids, phosphatidic acid, and mixtures thereof. It is anticipated that other emulsifying agents having a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) or a combined HLB value similar to that of polysorbate 60 and PLURONIC® F-68 may be used in the preparation of the fluorocarbon emulsion of embodiments. The hydrogenated phospholipid of an embodiment is hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine. [0090] Typically, the emulsifying agent is used in an amount in the range from about 1% to about 15% (wt/wt). In an embodiment, the amount of the emulsifying agent is in the range from about 3% to about 7% (wt/wt). However, greater amounts may be used if desired.
[0091] Conventional fluorocarbon emulsions are stabilized either by decreasing the size of the dispersed fluorocarbon droplets and/or by selecting a surfactant that surrounds the fluorocarbon droplets and reduces the interfacial surface tension and causing electrostatic and steric repulsion between the droplets, inhibiting their coalescence. Surfactants are generally amphiphilic molecules having a hydrophobic tail region and hydrophilic head region. However, fluorocarbons are water-immiscible substances that are neither hydrophilic nor lipophilic. Thus, the interfacial surface tension between fluorocarbons and a fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid phase cannot be effectively reduced by conventional surfactants alone. The use of a combination of a conventional surfactant and a fluorophilic/lipophilic molecule act together in association to reduce the interfacial surface tension and stabilize the emulsion. [0092] Embodiments described herein take a different approach that does not require the use of fluorophilic/lipophilic compounds. Instead, the fluorocarbon emulsion is unexpectedly stabilized by decreasing the ability of the dispersed fluorocarbon droplets and micelles to move within the continuous phase altogether. As a result, the fluorocarbon droplets cannot combine with each other and destabilize the emulsion. The mobility of fluorocarbon droplets may be decreased by adding a stabilizing agent to the continuous phase to alter the physical properties of that phase. [0093] Accordingly, the stabilizing agent of embodiments is a compound that reduces the ability of the fluorocarbon droplets to move within the continuous phase. The stabilizing agent may be selected from the group consisting of cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, polyoxyethylated fatty acid (PEG-75 stearate), polyethylene glycol ether of cetyl alcohol (ceteth-20), polyethylene glycol ether of stearyl alcohol (steareth-20), hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, and mixtures thereof. [0094] The amount of the stabilizing agent is typically in the range from about 0.05% to about 20% (wt/wt), and the amount of the stabilizing agent in embodiments is in the range from about 0.5% to about 5% (wt/wt). [0095] In one embodiment, hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine is used as both the stabilizing agent and the emulsifying agent.
[0096] The fluorocarbon emulsion of the present invention may be in a form of a viscous solution, liquid crystal, cream, foam, liquid, or gel. In one embodiment, the continuous aqueous phase further comprises a thickening agent to increase the viscosity of the emulsion. Preferably, the thickening agent is added in such an amount that the viscosity of the fluorocarbon emulsion is at least about 50 centipoise under normal conditions. [0097] The thickening agent may be selected from the group consisting of carboxylic acid polymers, polyacrylamide, polysaccharides, and gums. The carboxylic acid polymers may be homopolymers of acrylic acid cross-linked with allyl ethers of sucrose or pentaerytritol (carbomers) or copolymers of C10-30 alkyl acrylates with one or more monomers of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid cross-linked with allyl ethers of sucrose or pentaerytritol (acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymers). [0098] The polysaccharides may be cellulose and cellulose derivatives. In one embodiment, the polysaccharides are selected from the group consisting of hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, dextran, and derivatives thereof. [0099] The gums may be selected from the group consisting of agars, gelatin, guar gum, and algin. Gas Delivery Agents [00100] In embodiments, provided herein are gas delivery agents comprising the compositions described herein and oxygen. In embodiments, the gas delivery agent is a pressured bladder canister comprising an oxygenated composition described herein. In embodiments, canister is pressurized so that oxygen remains in the compositions. In embodiments, the bladder is surrounded by a propellant (e.g., pressurized nitrogen gas). When the nozzle of the canister is actuated, the propellant in the canister squeezes the bladder and causes the oxygenated compositions described herein to be discharged uniformly from the canister. In embodiments, the bladder materials keep the oxygenated composition separate from the propellant. In embodiments, the bladder comprises a laminated structure of polypropylene, a center layer of aluminum foil, and a polyethylene terephthalate outer layer.
[0100] The devices may include a gas delivery agent for the delivery of gas into gas-depleted environments. The agent comprises the emulsion described, wherein the emulsion is saturated or super-saturated with a gas. When the gas is oxygen, the concentration of oxygen in the emulsion is at least about 0.3 ml of oxygen (STP) per one milliliter (ml) of emulsion at 1 atmosphere. The partial pressure of oxygen, or pO2, in the emulsion is generally above 760 mm Hg in these embodiments. [0101] The gas delivery agent of the embodiments described herein may be supersaturated with gas. For example, when the gas is oxygen, the concentration of oxygen in the emulsion is at least about 1 ml of oxygen (STP) per one ml of emulsion. In another embodiment, the concentration of oxygen in the emulsion is at least about 2 ml of oxygen (STP) per ml of emulsion. The partial pressure of oxygen, or pO2, in the emulsion is generally above 10,000 mm Hg in these embodiments and can be as high as 11,000 mm Hg or higher. [0102] In embodiments, provided herein are methods of preparing a gas delivery agent. In embodiments, the methods comprise exposing a composition described herein to a gas under conditions sufficient to gasify the emulsion to a predetermined degree. The composition may be exposed to gas under atmospheric pressure or under a pressure that is above atmospheric pressure. For example, when the gas is oxygen, the emulsion may be exposed to oxygen under 180 psi for sufficient time to achieve pO2 in the emulsion of at least about 10,000 mm Hg. [0103] In embodiments, the compositions described herein or gas delivery agent of the embodiments herein is stored under pressure in a dispensing bottle to maintain the phase equilibria between the solubilized gas in the composition and the pressurized gas and to prevent gas dissolution and escape from the composition. In embodiments, when the gas is oxygen, oxygen gas may also serve as the vehicle propellant in such a delivery system, or, an indirect propellant, such as another gas, for example, nitrogen, applied to the outside of a barrier within the dispensing bottle, can be employed. [0104] In embodiments, the pressurized container holding the gas delivery agent should maintain an internal pressure that, at a minimum, remains equal to or greater than the equivalent dissolved gas partial pressure. Also, the pressurized container is configured to allow
full dispensation of the gas delivery agent (greater than 95% of total charging weight dispensed). Methods of Making Oxygenated Compositions Described Herein [0105] Exemplary methods of preparing oxygenated compositions described herein are described in Example 1. [0106] As described herein, the mobility of the fluorocarbon particles within the continuous phase may be decreased and the fluorocarbon emulsion may be stabilized by adding a stabilizing agent to the continuous phase. Accordingly, embodiments are directed to methods of making a fluorocarbon emulsion. The method comprises mixing a fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid and an emulsifying agent to form a first mixture, mixing a stabilizing agent with the first mixture to form a second mixture, and mixing fluorocarbon with the second mixture to form a third mixture to disperse droplets of fluorocarbon in the fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid and to form the fluorocarbon emulsion, wherein the stabilizing agent reduces the ability of the droplets to move within a continuous phase of the fluorocarbon emulsion. [0107] Mechanical agitation of the heated ingredients, including a solid emulsifying agent, forms a stable suspension of fluorocarbon droplets within the continuous phase. The fluorocarbon emulsion obtained in accordance with the methods described herein is thermally and mechanically stable and will not separate into its constituent phases unless subjected to extreme conditions. [0108] Embodiments include an alternative method of making a fluorocarbon emulsion comprising mixing a fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid and a solid emulsifying agent by agitation at a temperature elevated above the phase transition temperature of the emulsifying agent and below the boiling temperature of the fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid, and adding fluorocarbon to the mixture and agitating at the elevated temperature to disperse droplets of fluorocarbon in the fluorocarbon immiscible hydrophilic liquid and to form the fluorocarbon emulsion. The mixing and agitation may be conducted by any conventional means, for example, by hand stirring, aeration, propeller agitation, turbine agitation, colloid
milling, homogenizing, high-frequency or ultrasonic oscillation (sonication), micro- fluidization and the like. In one embodiment, a homogenizer is used. [0109] The emulsifying agent used in either method is preferably a non-fluorinated compound. The emulsifying agent may be selected from the group consisting of a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, phospholipids, and a polyoxyethylene derivative of a fatty acid ester of sorbitan. In an embodiment, the block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide is a triblock copolymer of ethylene and propylene oxide with an average molecular weight of 7680 to 9510 and 81% (wt/wt) oxyethylene (poloxamer 188 or PLURONIC® F-68). In an alternative embodiment, the emulsifying agent is polyoxyethylene 20 sorbitan monostearate (polysorbate 60). [0110] When a solid emulsifying agent is used it comprises a hydrogenated phospholipid. The hydrogenated phospholipid may be selected from the group consisting of hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphanolipids, phosphatidic acid, and mixtures thereof. In one embodiment, the hydrogenated phospholipid is a hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine. [0111] The amount of the emulsifying agent of an embodiment is in the range from about 1% to about 15% (wt/wt), preferably, in the range from about 3% to about 7% (wt/wt). The elevated temperature is in the range from about 40° C. to about 90° C. [0112] The method of making fluorocarbon emulsion of an embodiment further comprises processing the viscous solution to reduce the size of the fluorocarbon droplets. Such processing may be conducted by homogenization or other suitable methods known to those skilled in the art. [0113] This method of an embodiment may further comprise cooling the obtained emulsion to form a viscous solution or gel. In one embodiment, the viscosity of the viscous solution is greater than the viscosities of plasma and blood, which are in the range of 1 to 6 centipoise. In another embodiment, the viscosity is at least about 50 centipoise. In one embodiment, the fluorocarbon emulsion is cooled to at least about 40° C.
[0114] Depending on the type of the intended use of the fluorocarbon emulsion, the first step of the alternative method of making a fluorocarbon emulsion described above may further comprise admixing formulation additives into water. Such formulation additives may be selected from a group consisting of stabilizing agents, thickening agents, preservatives, humectants, emollients, colorants, pH adjustment agents, buffers, texture-enhancing compounds, sunscreens, antioxidants, chelating agents, fragrances, flavorings, processing aids, and other bioactive or inert cosmetic and pharmaceutical ingredients. [0115] For example, the stabilizing agent may be selected from a group consisting of cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, polyoxyethylated fatty acid (PEG- 75 stearate), polyethylene glycol ether of cetyl alcohol (ceteth-20), polyethylene glycol ether of stearyl alcohol (steareth-20), hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, and mixtures thereof. The amount of the stabilizing agent may be in the range from about 0.05% to about 20% (wt/wt), preferably, from about 0.5% to about 5% (wt/wt). In one embodiment, both the stabilizing agent and the emulsifying agent are hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine. The humectants are substances that are added into formulations to preserve the moisture content of the materials to which they are added, slow evaporation and enhance moisturization. The humectants are well known in the art and may be selected from the group consisting of glycerin, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, sorbitol and others. Other additives may be selected from the group consisting of thixotropic, whitening agents and processing aids. Thixotropic agents are added generally to alter the flow characteristics, or rheology, of the emulsion. [0116] In another aspect of the embodiments described herein, the emulsion may be treated to contain more oxygen than would result under normal conditions. Accordingly, the embodiments herein provide a gas delivery agent for the delivery of gas into gas-depleted environments. The agent comprises the fluorocarbon emulsion described above, wherein the fluorocarbon emulsion is saturated with a gas. When the gas is oxygen, the concentration of oxygen in the fluorocarbon emulsion of the present invention is at least about 0.3 ml of oxygen (STP) per one ml of fluorocarbon emulsion at 1 atmosphere. The partial pressure of oxygen, or pO2, in the emulsion is generally above 760 mm Hg in these embodiments.
[0117] In one embodiment, the ingredients of the fluorocarbon emulsion are heated and mixed in a mixer and the obtained emulsion is pumped into a pressurized oxygenation vessel. Mechanical agitation is performed in this unit with dual pitched blades to ensure rapid equilibration with oxygen to produce an oxygen delivery agent. Lastly, the internal pressure of the oxygenation vessel forces the oxygen delivery agent into the filling station for bottling. [0118] Because the oxygen delivery agent of the embodiments herein is capable of delivering high levels of oxygen into the skin tissues, it has many biomedical and cosmetic applications. For example, it may be used in topical applications for the healing of wounds, burns, and bruises. The oxygen delivery agent may also be incorporated into pharmaceutical products containing antibiotics, nutritive elements, hydrating agents, and other beneficial and therapeutic substances, for optimal therapeutic and healing effect. The oxygen delivery agent may be applied directly to the skin or may be incorporated into a dressing for application to the skin. Examples of such dressings include, but are not limited to, gauze, bandages, and other materials suitable for maintaining the oxygen delivery agent in contact with the skin. Application of an occlusive wound dressing inhibits diffusive transport of oxygen to the ambient environment and ensures maximal transport of oxygen to the treatment site. [0119] The oxygen delivery agent may also be incorporated into various cosmetic products, such as creams, ointments, masks, and exfoliates, to name a few. In one embodiment, the oxygen delivery agent of the present invention delivers oxygen to intact skin in cosmetic applications to improve skin texture and tone. For example, the oxygen delivery agent may be incorporated into a skin care cream or a cosmetic mask. Such products may be applied by a skilled skin care professional in the office or by a consumer at home. [0120] The following examples are intended to illustrate, but not to limit, the scope of the embodiments described in detail herein. While such examples are typical of those that might be used, other procedures known to those skilled in the art may alternatively be used.

Example 1: Preparation of Oxygenated Compositions Disclosed Herein [0136] Two oxygenated emulsions (Composition 1 and Composition 2), see tables below, were prepared by mechanically agitating, homogenizing, and heating the ingredients. After emulsification, each composition was charged with oxygen at a charging pressure of 180 pounds per square inch gauge (psig) of pure oxygen overnight. The final equilibrium concentrations of oxygen in the oxygenated emulsions was evaluated using an oxygen sensor (i.e., the OXY-1 SMA-BT Oxygen Meter manufactured by PRESENS PRECISION SENSING, presens.de/products/detail/oxy-1-sma-bt-oxygen-meter)manufactured by PRESENS PRECISION SENSING). Composition 1 contained 711.7 Torr O2, and Composition 2 contained 740 Torr O2. This is over three times the oxygen found in other topical oxygenated products (~160 Torr O2).
Table A: Ingredients in Composition 1
Table B: Ingredients in Composition 2.
Example 2: Composition 1 improves Wound Closure in Mouse Model [0137] This study examined the mitigative effects of Composition 1 in an animal model of skin wound and radiation combined injury. Composition 1 was applied to the wounded area (~1 mm thickness covering the entire wound surface) after wounding alone or total-body radiation combined with skin wound injury (“RCI”). A vehicle cream was used in the control groups. Table C, below, provides a schematic of the experimental design. The mice were dividnotinto three groups, Vehicle, Composition 1, and Sham. Mice in the Vehicle group were administered vehicle topically daily twenty four hours after injury until wound closure. Mice in the Compound 1 group were administered Compound 1 daily twenty four hours after injury until wound closure. Mice in the sham group were not administered any treatment. Subgroups of mice were administered treatment to a wound alone, total body irradiation (“TBI”) at a dose
of 9.0 Gy Co- -lethal skin wound one to two hours after irradiation, or total body irradiation at a dose of 9.3 Gy Co- Gy/min photon followed by a non-lethal skin wound one to two hours after irradiation [0138] Animal survival was monitored daily up to 30 days post-TBI, following the guidance of the IACUC Policy on a “Rodent Intervention Score Sheet”. Once an animal scored higher than a “12”, the animal was considered “moribund” and was euthanized. [0139] Measurements of body weight and wound size were performed at least twice per week on days 0, 1, 3, 7, 10, 14, 17, 21, 24, and 28 post-TBI. Baseline body weight measurement was performed right after TBI (day 0). Wound size (mm) was measured in un-anesthetized animals. The mouse was held in a prone position with its back facing a digital camera. Close-up photographs of the wound were taken using the same positioning across images to ensure consistency. The average area of each wound (mm2) was determined by measuring the area of the skin wound in the images. The percentage (%) of wound closure was determined by normalizing the daily wound area with the average wound size measured on day 0 post-RCI (referred to as baseline level of wound area). % wound closure= 100% - (wound area measured on day X/baseline wound area) * 100%. [0140] Surviving mice were humanely euthanized and multiple tissues/organs were collected. Tissues such as blood, serum, spleen, skin around the wounded area, etc., were collected on day 30 after TBI. The mice were deeply anesthetized prior to whole blood collection through a cardiac blood draw. Confirmatory cervical dislocation was performed while the animal was still anesthetized in accordance with the approved IACUC protocol. Tissue collection was conducted after euthanasia. Complete blood cell counts and spleen weight/splenocyte counts were also measured on day 30 after TBI. Unplanned euthanized moribund or found-dead animals did not have blood or tissues collected. [0141] Under deep isoflurane anesthesia, blood was drawn from the 30-day surviving mice via cardiac puncture. A volume of 30– EDTA for peripheral blood cell count, while the remaining blood was collected into a microtube with a serum separator additive for serum preparation. Whole blood samples in EDTA-containing microtubes were analyzed for CBC with differential using a clinical
hematoanalyzer (Element HT5; Heska, Loveland, CO, USA) following the manufacturer’s instructions. For blood collected in serum separating tubes, sera were obtained after centrifugation at 10,000× g for 10 min, following 30–120 min of coagulation at room te analysis. [0142] Serum samples were subjected to a quantified mouse cytokine array analysis by Eve - fold dilution with PBS pH 7.4 was subjected to a mouse cytokine/chemokine 44-plex discovery assay® array (MD44). A total of 44 cytokines and chemokines measured, included eotaxin, erythropoietin, 6Ckine, fractalkine, G-CSF, GM- - - -2, IL-3, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-9, IL-10, IL-11, IL-12p40, IL-12p70, IL-13, IL-15, IL-16, IL-17, IL- 20, IP-10, KC, LIF, LIX, MCP-1, MCP-5, M-CSF, MDC, MIG, MIP- - -2, MIP- - -A. [0143] Spleens were collected from surviving mice (n = 5 mice per group) and weighed. Each spleen was then inserted into an individual plastic bag containing 10 ml 1× Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY), homogenized using a Seward Stomacher® 80 Biomaster (Seward Ltd. Company, Worthing, UK), and poured through a 70 mm cell strainer on top of a collection tube (BD Falcon, Bedford, MA). The bag and strainer were rinsed with an additional 15 ml 1x HBSS and collected into the sample tube. The collection tubes were then centrifuged at 800×g (Sorvall Legend XTR Centrifuge, Thermo Scientific) for 10 min and the HBSS removed. The pellets were resuspended in 10 mL 1× ACK lysis buffer (Invitrogen) for 10 min at 37 °C to lyse RBCs, mixed by vertexing every 5 min, and then centrifuged at 800×g for 10 min. Splenocyte pellets were collected and resuspended in 10 mL 1× phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Aliquots of the suspensions were placed in Countess™ cell-counting-chamber slides (Invitrogen, Eugene, Oregon) and splenocytes were counted with the Countess automated cell counter (Invitrogen). Splenocyte suspensions were centrifuged again at 800 x g for 10 min, excess fluids removed, and the cell pellets were stored at -80 oC for future analysis. Spleen weight was presented in mg and splenocyte counts were presented as cells/spleen.
[0144] The Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test was used to compare survival among groups for 30 days after TBI. For other data, differences among/between means were compared by analysis of variance (ANOVA) or t-tests. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results are presented as means ± standard errors of the mean. Table C. Experimental Design
[0145] Treatment began 24 h after radiation exposure and/or skin wound, applied once daily, and continued until wound closure. Before product application, any residual cream at the wounded area would be gently wiped off with sterile gauze and warm water, followed by time to air dry for ~5 min. Summarized below are results related to 30-day survival, wound closure,
body weights, complete blood counts (CBCs) with differential, splenocyte counts, and spleen weights. [0146] Figs. 1A-1B shows 30-day Kaplan-Meier survival curves for mice exposed to 9.0 Gy RCI (Fig. 1A) or 9.3 Gy RCI (Fig. 1B) treated with Composition 1 or Vehicle cream starting at 24 h after RCI or skin wound, applied once daily, and continued until wound closure. Thirty- day survival rates were: 9.0 Gy RCI + vehicle, 75% (15/20); 9.0 Gy RCI + Composition 1, 95% (19/20); 9.3 Gy RCI + vehicle, 25% (5/20); 9.3 Gy RCI + Composition 1, 50% (10/20). A log-rank test was used to determine the effect of Composition 1on 30-day survival after 9.0 Gy RCI (p = 0.084) or 9.3 Gy RCI (p = 0.126). Treatment with Composition 1 increased 30- day survival compared to the vehicle-treated groups after RCI. [0147] Figs. 2A-2D show percentage (%) of skin-wound healing over time (day 1 to day 28 post-TBI) from mice exposed to skin wounding alone, 9.0 Gy RCI, or 9.3 Gy RCI treated with Composition 1 or vehicle (Figs.2A-2C). A significant improvement in wound healing rate was observed between Composition 1-treated vs. vehicle-treated cohorts in 9.0 Gy RCI. (Fig.2D). [0148] Figs. 3A-3C display body weight changes over time (day 0 to day 28 post-TBI) from Composition 1- or vehicle-treated mice exposed to skin wounding alone (Fig.3A), 9.0 Gy RCI (Fig.3B), or 9.3 Gy RCI (Fig.3C). RCI mice at both 9.0 Gy or 9.3 Gy experienced significant body weight loss over time, when compared to either the sham or wounded alone mice (Data not shown). Composition 1 treatment did not impact body weight loss after RCI compared to respective vehicle controls. [0149] Fig. 4 displays complete blood cell counts (CBC) from Composition 1- or vehicle- treated mice on day 30 after exposure to sham, skin wounding alone, 9.0 Gy RCI, or 9.3 Gy RCI. Blood cell counts included white blood cells (WBC), neutrophils (NEU), lymphocytes (LYM), monocytes (MONO), eosinophils (EOS), basophils (BAS), red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), and platelets (PLT). The data show that RCI significantly decreased the LYM and PLT counts. Topical administration of Composition 1 resulted in significant decreases in RBC, HGB, and HCT, and increases of MONO in the circulation compared to the sham group after 9.3 Gy RCI. There were no significant
Composition 1 vs. Vehicle differences observed within each test condition (unpaired t-tests (two-tailed); n = 5-10 per group). [0150] Figs. 5A-5B demonstrate that on day 30, RCI at 9.0 Gy significantly reduced spleen weights. Topical Composition 1 treatment did not recover the spleen weights (Fig. 5A). For splenocytes, Composition 1 treatment significantly increased splenocytes per spleen by 23% in the wound alone group. However, RCI at either 9.0 Gy or 9.3 Gy significantly reduced splenocytes regardless of Composition 1 treatment (Fig. 5B). Taken together, the results Composition 1 that SSOE might be potentially beneficial for the recovery of splenocytes after skin wounding, which is important for innate immunity. [0151] Treatment with Composition 1 enhanced 30 days survival by 20% after 9.0 Gy RCI (~LD30/30) and 25% after 9.3 Gy RCI (~LD50/30) compared to the vehicle control groups. (Fig. 1A, Fig. 1B) Additionally, treatment with Composition 1 significantly accelerated the linear wound healing rate from day 0 to 7 after 9.0 Gy RCI. (Fig.2B). Composition 1 did not have any effect on body weight loss after RCI. (Figs. 3A-3C). Compared to vehicle control groups, topical administration of Composition 1 significantly increased monocyte counts and decreased red blood cell counts in the 9.3 Gy RCI mice on day 30. (Fig. 4). Treatment with Composition 1 significantly increased splenocyte counts after wounding alone but did not impact the RCI-induced reduction of spleen weights and splenocyte counts, suggesting that Composition 1 improved innate immunity on day 30 after wounding though not after RCI. (Fig. 4). Composition 1 did not influence the levels of cytokines/chemokines in mouse serum collected on day 30 after wound alone or RCI. (Table D). Table D. Serum cytokine/chemokine levels on day 30 after skin wound alone, 9.0 Gy TBI and skin wound (RCI9.0 Gy), 9.3 Gy TBI and skin wound (RCI 9.3 Gy).
