| abstract |
The invention relates to the use of surfactant mixtures, comprising (a) anionic and/or non-ionic surfactants and (b) water-soluble β-(1,3) glucans which are substantially free of β-(1,6) links. Said mixtures are used to produce oral hygiene and dental hygiene products, in particular, toothpastes. The preparations are characterised in that the mucous membranes in the mouth have a particularly high degree of tolerability with regard thereto, by exhibiting exceptional foaming properties and a stable distribution of the abrasive substances. |
