Abstract

The second part of this two-part review provides a comprehensive overview of the practical applications of COSMO-RS methodology in the formulation of cosmetics, fragrances, and foods. The current literature predominantly focuses on the recovery and characterization of ingredients, with fewer studies addressing end-use formulations. Four major types of applications have been identified and are discussed (i) the extraction of active ingredients and additives from biomass, by far the most documented, (ii) their solubilization in skin-compatible or ingestible solvents, (iii) the selection of fragrant molecules to establish a predefined olfactory profile, and finally, (iv) the physico-chemical characterization of ingredients to maximize their sensory performance and safety. For further familiarization with COSMO-RS, the typical calculation procedures are demonstrated step-by-step for key target properties.

期刊介绍： Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications. Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments. Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
