Definitions

  • compositions comprise cannabinoids, specifically cannabigerol and/or cannabidiol, which are non-psychoactive phytocannabinoids.
  • the composition is anti-microbial spray, antibiotic cream, antifungal cream, or anti-microbial liquid.
  • the cannabis plant has many naturally occurring substances that are of great interest in the fields of science and medicine.
  • Isolated compounds from the cannabis plant include ⁇ 9 -tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinol (CBN), cannabidivarin (CBDV), among other compounds. While THC has psychoactive effects, CBD, CBC, CBG, and CBDV do not.
  • Isolated compounds from the cannabis plant are called cannabinoids. There are a total of eighty-five (85) cannabinoids that have been isolated from the cannabis plant. Many researchers have confirmed the medicinal value of cannabinoids. Cannabinoids have been investigated for possible treatment of seizures, nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, pain, arthritis, inflammation, and other conditions.
  • Cannabinoids can be isolated by extraction or cold pressing from cannabis plants. Plants in the cannabis genus include Cannabis sativa, Cannabis ruderalis , and Cannabis indica . These plants are the natural sources of cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are also available in synthetic forms. Methods to synthesize cannabinoids in lab settings were discovered and are still currently practiced. Synthetic cannabinoids are more targeted, in that the synthetic compound usually comes isolated without other cannabinoids mixed in.
  • Nabilone (racemic(6aR,10aR)-1-hydroxy-6,6-dimethyl-3-(2-methyloctan-2-yl)-7,8,10,10a-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromen-9(6aH)-one), a synthetic cannabinoid, is believed to have fewer undesired side effects than THC. Nabilone mimics the chemical compound structure of THC. THC also exists in synthetic form under the name Dronabinol (( ⁇ )-(6aR,10aR)-6,6,9-trimythel-3-pentyl-6a,7,8,10a-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromen-1-ol)).
  • nabilone for treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. In the United States, nabilone is marketed under the name Cesamet®.
  • THC The IUPAC nomenclature of THC is ( ⁇ )-(6aR,10aR)-6,6,9-trimethyl-3-pentyl-6a,7,8,10a-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromen-1-ol.
  • CBD's IUPAC nomenclature is 2-((1S,6S)-3-methyl-6-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclo-hex-2-enyl)-5-pentylbenzene-1,3-diol).
  • CBC has the IUPAC nomenclature of 2-methyl-2-(4-methylpent-3-enyl)-7pentyl-5-chromenol.
  • CBG has the IUPAC nomenclature of 2-[(2E)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienyl]-5-pentyl-benzene-1,3-diol. These are among the most prominent compounds in the family of compounds extracted from the cannabis plant referred to as cannabinoids.
  • Cannabidiol is a major phytocannabinoid, accounting for up to 40% of the plant's extract.
  • CBD is a CB-1 receptor antagonist
  • THC is a CB-1 receptor agonist.
  • a 2010 research found that cannabis strains with higher concentration of CBD did not produce the short-term memory impairment normally seen in high THC cannabis strains, a characteristic attributed to the CB-1 receptor antagonist nature of CBD. CBD is considered to have a wider scope of medical applications than THC.
  • CBG cannabigerol
  • Cannabis abuse can occur among chronic users, especially when raw plant materials are consumed by smoking. Collectively, this abuse is referred to as cannabis use disorder. Discontinuance of cannabis consumption can result in withdrawal symptoms. However, some cannabinoids, such as CBD, may be useful in treating cannabis use disorder.

Description

    CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/183,357, filed Jun. 23, 2015, the content of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Field of the Invention
  • This invention relates to anti-microbial, in particular anti-bacterial and anti-fungal compositions and the topical application of such compositions for the prevention and/or treatment of bacterial and fungal infections on the skin. The compositions comprise cannabinoids, specifically cannabigerol and/or cannabidiol, which are non-psychoactive phytocannabinoids. The composition is anti-microbial spray, antibiotic cream, antifungal cream, or anti-microbial liquid.
  • Description of the Related Technology
  • The cannabis plant has many naturally occurring substances that are of great interest in the fields of science and medicine. Isolated compounds from the cannabis plant include Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinol (CBN), cannabidivarin (CBDV), among other compounds. While THC has psychoactive effects, CBD, CBC, CBG, and CBDV do not. Isolated compounds from the cannabis plant are called cannabinoids. There are a total of eighty-five (85) cannabinoids that have been isolated from the cannabis plant. Many researchers have confirmed the medicinal value of cannabinoids. Cannabinoids have been investigated for possible treatment of seizures, nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, pain, arthritis, inflammation, and other conditions.
  • Cannabinoids can be isolated by extraction or cold pressing from cannabis plants. Plants in the cannabis genus include Cannabis sativa, Cannabis ruderalis, and Cannabis indica. These plants are the natural sources of cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are also available in synthetic forms. Methods to synthesize cannabinoids in lab settings were discovered and are still currently practiced. Synthetic cannabinoids are more targeted, in that the synthetic compound usually comes isolated without other cannabinoids mixed in.
  • Nabilone (racemic(6aR,10aR)-1-hydroxy-6,6-dimethyl-3-(2-methyloctan-2-yl)-7,8,10,10a-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromen-9(6aH)-one), a synthetic cannabinoid, is believed to have fewer undesired side effects than THC. Nabilone mimics the chemical compound structure of THC. THC also exists in synthetic form under the name Dronabinol ((−)-(6aR,10aR)-6,6,9-trimythel-3-pentyl-6a,7,8,10a-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromen-1-ol)). These synthetic cannabinoids are sold for food supplement purposes and are being investigated for medicinal purposes. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved nabilone for treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. In the United States, nabilone is marketed under the name Cesamet®.
  • The IUPAC nomenclature of THC is (−)-(6aR,10aR)-6,6,9-trimethyl-3-pentyl-6a,7,8,10a-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromen-1-ol. CBD's IUPAC nomenclature is 2-((1S,6S)-3-methyl-6-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclo-hex-2-enyl)-5-pentylbenzene-1,3-diol). CBC has the IUPAC nomenclature of 2-methyl-2-(4-methylpent-3-enyl)-7pentyl-5-chromenol. CBG has the IUPAC nomenclature of 2-[(2E)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienyl]-5-pentyl-benzene-1,3-diol. These are among the most prominent compounds in the family of compounds extracted from the cannabis plant referred to as cannabinoids.
  • Cannabidiol is a major phytocannabinoid, accounting for up to 40% of the plant's extract. CBD is a CB-1 receptor antagonist, while THC is a CB-1 receptor agonist. A 2010 research found that cannabis strains with higher concentration of CBD did not produce the short-term memory impairment normally seen in high THC cannabis strains, a characteristic attributed to the CB-1 receptor antagonist nature of CBD. CBD is considered to have a wider scope of medical applications than THC.
  • Because it is a relatively unknown cannabinoid, cannabigerol (CBG) remains understudied and its effects are only just starting to become clear. CBG is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. All cannabinoids in the early stage of the cannabis plant's life begins as CBG. CBG is found in higher concentrations in hemp plants as opposed to marijuana plants, which are grown to have higher concentrations of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). CBG has been found to act as a high affinity α2-adrenergic receptor agonist, a moderate affinity 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, and a low affinity CB1 receptor antagonist. It binds with the CB2 receptor, but it is currently unknown whether it acts as an agonist or antagonist.
  • Cannabis abuse can occur among chronic users, especially when raw plant materials are consumed by smoking. Collectively, this abuse is referred to as cannabis use disorder. Discontinuance of cannabis consumption can result in withdrawal symptoms. However, some cannabinoids, such as CBD, may be useful in treating cannabis use disorder.
  • Anti-bacterial products are used to kill, repress the growth of, or repress the reproduction of bacteria. There are a number of topical anti-bacterial products on the market, including soap, hand sanitizer liquid, hand wipes, skin cream, spray, and eye drops. However, many of these existing products contain triclosan or triclocarban, ingredients criticized for having unanticipated effects on hormones and contributing to bacterial resistance. There is a demand for topical anti-microbial products without triclosan in order to avoid undesirable negative hormonal effects. The anti-microbial product has effects against difficult to treat bacteria, such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), as well as viruses and fungi.
