Smarter Ways … by Steve Herman
Working hard and working smart sometimes can be two different things…Byron Dorgan
A
dvances in science, technology, and information management can help us do things faster and smarter than was previously possible. Our experimental work will benefit from using effective ways of collecting and analyzing laboratory data. We can save time and money, two precious commodities, by using predictive computer programs to generate trustworthy estimates of chemical and toxicological properties. We can formulate much better products than those put on the market years ago if we proceed logically and understand the properties and functions of every ingredient being used. Historically there are very few rules to follow in personal care formulation. Look at undergraduate textbooks in physics, chemistry, and biology. The physics book will be loaded with equations. The chemistry book will have some equations and quantitative relationships, but relatively more descriptive information. Biology is by far the least mathematically rigorous and most descriptive of the sciences. Personal care formulation resembles biology. Outside of HLB theory or Stoke’s Law, or a formula for neutralizing fatty acids and polymers, there are few set rules to guide the formulator. Rigor has crept into cosmetic science over the years. Where once a material was either polar or nonpolar, we now have Hanson Solubility Parameters and Clog P. We know more about formulating to deliver actives, and how the polarity of the oil phase impacts the SPF of a sunscreen. Increasing the stability of a sunscreen molecule exposed to UV radiation using triplet quenching involves nothing less than quantum mechanics. Let’s examine three examples of smarter ways of working: analyzing multiple variables using phase diagrams, using SMILES notation as an input tool to predict chemical properties using computer programs, and following the reasoning of a decision tree to establish the safety of aroma chemicals.

Figure 1 Quaternary phase diagram.
Analyzing Multiple Variables Using Phase Diagrams Trial and error is the worst approach to a formulating challenge. Organizing data graphically can provide a roadmap and possibly reveal unexpected relationships. Multiple variables especially benefit from the use of phase diagrams. Assume there are four variables. They can be placed at the corners of a pyramid, and every point inside represents a possible combination. The result is a quaternary phase diagram (Figure 1).
Figure 2 A triangular slice out of the pyramid in Figure 1. This slice is a ternary diagram. Point P in this triangle represents 40% water, 20% oil, and 40% surfactant and co-surfactant.UVEHeffects.pdf.
Properties such as viscosity, micelle structures, tackiness or clarity can be data points. In this example we will explore areas of microemulsion formation. Figure 1 has oil, water, a surfactant (S), and a co-surfactant (CoS). To generate data we take a specific ratio of surfactant and co-surfactant, effectively taking a triangular slice out of the pyramid. Figure 2 shows this slice, now a ternary diagram. Point P in this triangle represents 40% water, 20% oil, and 40% surfactant and cosurfactant. Titrating water into a mixture of surfactants and oil can reveal areas of clear solutions in ratios where microemulsions are spontaneously formed. Figure 3, from an article by Graham Barker, shows the use of a phase diagram to identify micelle structures in a stearate stick.1 Barker was able to identify the amount of water and sodium stearate necessary to make a rigid composition. This clearly shows how a phase diagram is the best way to present certain types of data and to see deeply into the fundamental properties of a formulation. 4

SMILES Notation as an Input Tool to Predict Chemical Properties A key assumption in using computer models for predicting chemical properties is the validity of Structure-Activity Relationships (SARs). This allows us to compare a molecule that we don’t know about to a similar one with extensive data, a process known as “read-across.” We can also raise a red flag about a molecule if we identify a structural group in it that we know is present in a problem molecule. An example of predictive behavior is knowledge of how to design for biodegradation, for example, by having oxygen or an ester linkage built into the structure. Any relationship between a known molecule and an unknown one can provide valuable guidance. A tool exists which allows us to predict many critical properties of a molecule, even one that has never been made. It is EPI Suite, and it is available free from the EPA.2 Going back 20 years, computer programs have been available to calculate various properties of molecules, and independent workers have developed separate modules on areas such as ecological toxicity and dermal permeability. All these programs have been conveniently merged into EPI Suite (Estimation Programs Interface). To input a specific chemical into the program, the chemical name, CAS number, and, especially, SMILES Notation, is required. SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System) is simply a convention for transforming a chemical structure into a form that can be typed on a key pad. An obvious issue is that a computer does not have a key for a benzene ring. The original SMILES specification was developed at the EPA in the 1980s. In 2006 IUPAC introduced the InChI as a standard for formula representation. SMILES is more intuitive than InChI and also has an extensive range of useful software that accepts its input. SMILES notation for common chemicals can readily be found by searching the Internet. For establishing SMILES notation for a new molecule there are rules to follow. A simple example is to use upper case for aliphatics, lower case for aromatics, and a number for the beginning and end of a ring. Thus bromobenzene becomes c1ccccc1Br. In aromatic rings, heteroatoms (o, s, and n) are also lower case. Often, a number of equally valid SMILES strings can be written for a molecule. Ethanol can be CCO, OCC, or C(O)C. Algorithms have been developed that select a single SMILES string for a given molecule out of all the possible alternatives. For propylene glycol the CAS number is 57-55-6 and the SMILES notation is OCC(O)C. Put those in EPI Suite, hit “Calculate,” go to “All Results,” and pages of data appear. It can be converted to MS Word format by pressing a button. You will find the Henry’s Law constant, estimates of (Continued on page 6)

solubility, biodegradation, bioaccumulation, and atmospheric oxidation, among other things. If you do the same thing with a new molecule it would give you a big jump on predicting its physical, toxicological, and ecological profile.
Figure 4 EPI Suite opening screen with propylene glycol input.
The HELP section of EPI Suite provides detailed descriptions of the separate modules and detailed instructions for creating and using SMILES notation. Each section is an education in itself. For example, the BIOWIN component describes the seven models used to predict biodegradation and includes extensive references and a bibliography. Figure 4 shows the opening screen of EPI Suite with the SMILES and CAS number inserted for propylene glycol.

fugacity. Fugacity provides information on where the chemical will partition in the environment, and it is an essential property for determining environmental impact. Knowledge of fugacity, biodegradation, and aquatic toxicity combine to show a clear picture of the environmental effects of a chemical. If a molecule biodegrades quickly, its negative effects will have less chance to manifest itself. If a material is not water soluble, it will have less chance to kill fish even if it has high aquatic toxicity, since fish are unlikely to be exposed to a significant amount. Thus, the results of EPI Suite and some common sense go a long way towards forming an intelligent profile of a chemical.

Decision Tree Reasoning to Establish the Safety of Aroma Chemicals The RIFM (Research Institute for Fragrance Materials) is responsible for providing the industry with data on fragrance safety. A complete dossier of testing can be done on a molecule for about $1,000,000. There are over 3,000 materials in the database, so a direct assault on data acquisition would cost over $3 billion. There must be a better way, and RIFM has been looking for refinements in its methods for many years. Testing on animals is out of the question, so alternative measures must be taken. We need an approach that is quicker, less expensive, and scientifically beyond reproach. RIFM has just brought this up to date in its new criteria document, with the broad outline launched in December 2014 through a webinar.3 The criteria paper is still in press at this time.4 The basic ideas are easy enough for a layman to understand; it actually embraces a common sense approach to the subject. Some key concepts are end points, decision tree, read across, in silico, and TTC (Threshold of Toxicological Concern). Fragrances are complex mixtures of chemicals. Ingredients can be single aroma chemicals or natural oils composed of a large number of chemicals, often in small quantities and varying from batch to batch. Only ingredients, not the total compositions, are tested for safety. When a new fragrance material enters the system, the endpoint is the place where a decision is reached on safety. Endpoints that are established by RIFM for a fragrance material are genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, developmental and reproductive toxicity, skin sensitization, photoirritation and photoallergenicity, local respiratory toxicity, and environmental assessment. A decision tree is a series of questions, which serves as a roadmap through the evaluation process. Figure 7 has a partial, simplified decision tree for the first stage of a fragrance material assessment. At every juncture a question is posed, and either a decision is possible, ending the assessment process, or another step is taken. (Continued on page 8)

Figure 7 Fragrance assessment using the decision tree.
It is first necessary to evaluate the existing data. If there is enough, we are done. If not, we proceed to “read across.” Is our new material similar to another molecule we know about? If it is similar, and there is adequate data on the other molecule, we are finished. Confidence in using read across depends on the knowledge, experience, and judgment of the toxicologist making the decision. The next step involves in vitro screens or in silico methods using predictive toxicology programs. In silico is a general term for using computer programs rather than performing experimental work. For toxicology studies, RIFM has access to Derek, MultiCASE, Topcat, and the OECD Toolbox. RIFM has an ongoing commitment to adding new toxicology programs if they prove applicable to the types of questions posed by fragrance chemicals. If this proves sufficient, we are at the endpoint; otherwise we go to the Threshold of Toxicological Concern (TTC). TTC has been developed to handle the thousands of chemicals we can now identify in minute quantities virtually anywhere. It originated in work by the FDA in 1995 for food products and additives. It calculates a safe level for most chemicals, even for most carcinogens, present in all food and ingested over a lifetime. Certain categories like heavy metals and endocrine disruptors are excluded, as no level is deemed safe. Natural products are an example of compounds we cannot characterize completely, so the TTC is a useful approach to handling all the pesky little chemicals present. No chemical reaction runs to 100% completion, so every synthesized chemical we use has tiny byproducts. A way was desperately needed to deal with all these materials, and TTC is the answer. TTC is fundamentally an approach for prioritizing assessment of chemicals with low-level exposures. Three broad categories of materials are identified, shown in Table 1. The allowed exposure levels for each group are based on the decision tree work of Cramer and are: Cramer Group I – 1800 μg/day, Cramer Group II – 540 μg/day, and Cramer Group III – 90 μg/day.5 Table 1: Cramer classification scheme. • Class I: Substances with simple chemical structures and for which efficient modes of metabolism exist, suggesting a low order of oral toxicity. • Class II: Substances that possess structures that are less innocuous than class I substances, but do not contain structural features suggestive of toxicity like those substances in class III. 8

• Class III: Substances with chemical structures that permit no strong initial presumption of safety or may even suggest significant toxicity or have reactive functional groups. Concluding Remarks Graphical tools (e.g., phase diagrams), computer programs (e.g., EPI Suite), and decision trees, such as that used by RIFM, make our work more efficient, cut the time and costs of development or assessment, and allow us to better predict the safety and performance of the products we use. In a world that demands safety to humans and the environment, it cannot be ignored. And, to those developing the new chemicals that are the engines of new technologies, the insight we can gain early in the process is invaluable. References 1. G.

aced with declining attendance year-after-year, the Executive Board of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists decided to discontinue its mid-year Annual Scientific Meeting. Therefore, in June 2013, Area II of the SCC successfully hosted the very last one at Union Station in St. Louis, MO. Last year, Allured Global Events worked closely with the SCC, established its own Advisory Board,‡ and together created a new and exciting educational event to fill the void. On June 22-23rd, the Second Annual C&T Summit returned to the beautiful Ivy League campus of the University of Pennsylvania. Conveniently located in Philadelphia, it is the perfect academic setting to prepare the brain for higher learning. Sandy Chapin, VP-Events at Allured, and her team brought us many industry experts in science and marketing to cover the theme of “Exploring the Future of Product Development.” Rachel Grabenhofer, the Conference Program Director, welcomed everyone to this year’s C&T Summit. Next, introducing the Keynote Speaker sponsored by the SCC was Tony O’Lenick, the 2015 President of The Society. Musician Jeffery Baxter of Steely Dan stimulated our thinking as he explained how he uses asymmetrical thinking to solve problems he faces as a National Security Expert at the U.S. Dept. of Defense, and how we can use those same techniques to inspire new products and resolve technical challenges. Rounding out the first day were two concurrent sessions with speakers presenting on skin/sun and hair science. The following day we separated into four groups and rotated through four different and highly interactive workshops. This refreshing way to learn was not only educational, it was also a great deal of fun; trust me, no one was bored. More than 25 people stayed an extra day to learn from Dr. Roger McMullen as he instructed on Hair Science. Attendance was up from the previous year and no doubt will continue to grow as the word spreads about the value of the program for scientists and marketers. However, Allured Global Events will suspend its C&T Summit next year, in support of the SCC, as the non-profit organization takes its turn hosting the IFSCC Conference. The 2016 IFSCC Conference will take place in October at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida. The C&T Summit will return in June 2017. ‡

The Safety in Regulatory Framework of the Cosmetic Industry: Simplified and Practical September 29, 2015
Location: Seasons, Washington Township, NJ Organizer and Moderator: Nava Dayan, Ph.D. Program overview:
T
he Cosmetics and Personal Care Industry has gone through major changes in the past several decades. Regulators are in the process of a framework establishment to outline guidance for the protection of the consumer and the environment. There are three key factors for compliance: ethics, law, and science; combined to establish a launch to the marketplace. This workshop is put together with the aim of providing industry professionals with knowledge and basic guidance to this established framework in safety assessment and to examine the limitations and opportunities. We believe that new market regulation should not be looked upon as a hindrance for market entrance, but rather as an opportunity to enter it! ______________________________________________________________
