Appeal No. 1997-0003
Application No. 08/342,614
Appendix
9. The method of Claim 34 wherein said solvent comprises water and said
mixture comprises salt components such that the salt components are present in the
mixture in the following proportions, expressed as grams/kilogram of salt mixture in the
ionic state:
CATIONS (g/kg) ANIONS (g/kg)
Sodium 267 to 320 Chloride 450 to 600
Magnesium 30 to 40 Sulfate 60 to 120
Calcium 5 to 15 Hydrogen Carbonate 3 to 4.2
Potassium 6 to 14 Carbonate 0.3 to 0.7
10. The method of Claim 9 which further contains from about 1 to 2.5
grams/kilogram of salt mixture of bromide ions.
11. The method of Claim 9 which further contains from about 0.1 to 0.3
grams/kilogram of salt mixture of strontium ions.
12. The method of Claim 34, wherein said salt mixture is dissolved in water as a
carrier medium at a concentration within the range of from about 2.5 to about 12% by
weight.
16. The method of Claim 34 wherein said skin disease is acne.
17. The method of Claim 34 wherein said skin disease is seborrheic dermatitis.
18. A method for treating acne or seborrheic dermatitis comprising topically
applying to the affected skin areas a therapeutic salt composition solution, said solution
comprising a mixture of:
(a) from about 1 to 30% by weight of a salt composition prepared by
mixing salt composition prepared by mixing salt components such that, in the ionic state, a
mixture comprising sodium, magnesium, calcium, potassium, chloride, sulfate, hydrogen
carbonate and carbonate ions is formed, said ions constituting at least about 97.5% by
weight of the ionic content of said salt composition and said salt composition containing at
least 50% by weight of sodium chloride;
