Test Example 1 Effect of Defecation Deodorizing Composition in Human Comparative tests of defecation deodorization using the tablets prepared in Examples 3 and 4 and Comparative Examples 1, 2 and 3 were conducted. Test method As test subjects, dormitory residents who had the same meal were used.
Forty dormitory residents were divided into five groups of eight. 1. No test period (7 days) In this first course, we had regular meals. 2. First course (7 days) Separately from the meal, 3 baked garlics / day were given for 7 consecutive days. 3. Second course (7 days) Subsequently, a meal and 3 pieces of baked garlic were given continuously for 7 days, and 4 tablets per day of Examples 3, 4 and Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3 were given. . The control did not receive the deodorant composition. 4. Third Cool (7 days) The tableting of Examples 3, 4 and Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3 was stopped, and baked garlic was continuously given for 3 consecutive days for 3 days.

The evaluation of the odor is performed by each tester by sensory evaluation of the odor, and "1";
“2”; smell enough to determine the type of smell, “3”;
It was scored as an easily perceivable odor, "4"; a strong odor, "5"; an intense odor.

Examples 3 and 4 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 in the first test, the second test and the third test during the non-test period.
The odor of defecation of the test subjects in the group receiving the tablet product prepared in 3 was summarized. The score of the odor was obtained by averaging the sum of the odor points of each subject for 7 days (mean ± SD). Table 1 shows the test results.

[0028]

[Table 1]

As shown in Table 1, the score of deodorant defecation was higher during the first cool period in which garlic was taken than in the non-test period. In the second course, in which a tablet containing a deodorant deodorant component was ingested, the deodorant odor score decreased. In the tableted product administration groups of Examples 3 and 4, the defecation odor score was reduced as compared with the tableted products of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 of the conventional product. When the tableted product of Example 3 and the tableted product of Example 4 were compared, the tableted product of Example 4 using an emulsifier was more effective in defecation deodorization. In addition, in the third course in which the ingestion of the tableted product was stopped, the defecation deodorizing score increased again, so that the defecation deodorizing effect was obtained by ingesting the defecation deodorizing composition of Example. It was speculated.

Test Example 2 Effect of Defecation Deodorizing Composition in Animals The defecation deodorizing effect of dogs by using the defecation deodorizing composition of the present invention was examined. In this test example, the deodorizing effect was evaluated by measuring the amounts of hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and trimethylamine, which are typical malodorous components contained in feces.

Evaluation Test Method Five dogs (Beagle breeds) diagnosed as healthy and having an average age of 5 years and an average weight of 10 kg were used as subjects.
Each dog was fed the defecation deodorizing compositions of Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 in the feed (SCIENCE DIET, 1
60 g / day, mixed with Nippon Hills Colgate Co., Ltd.) to give the defecation deodorant composition once a day for 7 days each.
Given consecutive days. 300 mg of the defecation deodorizing compositions of Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were administered per day.
The other one was a control dog and received only feed.
In addition, water was free drinking water. During that time, feces were collected every day, and the intensity of fecal odor was measured using a gas detection tube and an odor sensor. In addition, each sample can be completely consumed by dogs,
During the feeding period, none of the test dogs showed loose stool or diarrhea stool, and all were normal stools.

Evaluation method The collected feces were stored frozen and evaluated collectively after the completion of the test for 7 days. In a test room at a room temperature of 25 ° C. and a humidity of 60%, 10 g of each stool was weighed and placed in a glass bottle having a volume of 150 ml, and left in a dryer at 40 ° C. for about 60 minutes to raise the temperature of the stool to about 30 ° C. . Then, the concentration of hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan in the glass bottle was measured using a direct reading gas detector tube (manufactured by Gastech Co., Ltd.). Furthermore, an odor sensor (trade name "FRAGRACE"
Using SENSOR SF-105 (manufactured by Mutual Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), the odor was measured 10 minutes after being taken out of the dryer. The "odor sensor" is a device for adsorbing odor molecules on a synthetic bilayer film on a quartz oscillator and measuring the intensity of the odor by a change in frequency (Hz) caused by the adsorption. The higher the number, the stronger the odor.

Test Results The concentrations of hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan are shown in Tables 2, 3 and 4 for each subject.

[0034]

[Table 2]

[0035]

[Table 3]

[0036]

[Table 4]

As shown in Tables 2 to 4, in the dogs to which the defecation deodorizing compositions of Examples 1 and 2 were given, both of hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan were compared to the control dogs on and after the second day from the start of feeding. It can be seen that it has been reduced. This is clear from the measured values of the odor sensor shown in Table 5. In addition, the comparative dogs provided with the defecation deodorizing compositions of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 and Example 1,
As can be seen from the comparison with the defecation deodorant composition of Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, the deodorant deodorant compositions of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 show the deodorant effect, but the defecation deodorant compositions of Examples 1 and 2. On the other hand, the effect is late onset and the deodorizing ability is low. From this result, lactic acid bacteria group, tea extract and galactomannan hydrolyzate in combination,
Further, it is understood that a higher deodorizing ability can be obtained by formulating the composition using an emulsifier.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, but can be variously modified within the scope of the present invention in accordance with the purpose and application.

[0039]

The defecation deodorizing composition of the present invention has an excellent deodorizing effect on feces of both humans and animals. Therefore, even if a pet such as a cat is bred indoors, the room will not be filled with odor. In addition, in fields such as geriatric medicine and sick patient nursing, the urine smell of patients using diapers and the like can be reduced, so that the burden on caregivers who have conventionally been forced to endure can be reduced. Furthermore, young women, etc. tend to endure bowel movements outside their homes due to their defecation odor, which is one of the causes of constipation.However, by taking the excrement deodorant of the present invention, defecation odor is reduced. Since it can be reduced, there is an effect of eliminating constipation and maintaining beauty and health.

In addition, since the deodorizing effect is exhibited by taking the product, it is possible to prevent the generation of offensive odor of feces before excretion. Therefore, the odorous component is less volatilized into the atmosphere, and thus has an excellent deodorizing effect. Also, when used for animals, unlike conventional deodorants, it can deodorize even when cats etc. do not stool at predetermined fixed places, and can remove cat sand etc. which are difficult to handle. No need to use. Furthermore, this deodorant uses plant extracts to remove solids, so the active ingredient concentration is high and its quality is excellent, and when used on animals, it can be easily mixed with pet food. can do.
