An electronic cigarette is provided in two or three sections. One section is a reusable barrel containing the electrical components, including a rechargeable battery and a heater or atomizer. Another section may include the atomizer and a replaceable and disposable cartridge having the desired volatile substance, such as nicotine, a medicament, and / or a flavoring agent.

The inventions disclosed herein relate to non-naturally occurring amide compounds that are capable, when contacted with comestible food or drinks or pharmaceutical compositions at concentrations preferably on the order of about 100 ppm or lower, of serving as savory (“umami”) or sweet taste modifiers, savory or sweet flavoring agents and savory or sweet flavor enhancers, for use in foods, beverages, and other comestible or orally administered medicinal products or compositions, optionally in the presence of or in mixtures with conventional flavoring agents such as monosodium glutamate or known natural and artificial sweeteners.

A filter element incorporating an adsorbent material is provided. The filter element may comprise a first section of filter material and a second section of filter material spaced apart to form a compartment therebetween. The compartment may be filled with one or more adsorbents or the compartment may be divided into two regions, wherein one compartment region is filled with an adsorbent and the other compartment region is either filled with an ion-exchange resin or remains empty. The section of filter material adjacent to the tobacco rod may include one or more channels therethrough for passaging smoke directly from the tobacco rod into the adsorbent-filled compartment. The mouth end section of filter material may contain a breakable capsule, wherein the breakable capsule is filled with a flavoring agent capable of altering the taste characteristics of mainstream smoke.

The present invention relates to a method of enhancing the salty taste of a food or beverage containing salt which comprises adding an acidic peptide or a peptide obtained by subjecting a protein to hydrolysis and deamidation to the food or beverage, a salty taste enhancer comprising the peptide as an active ingredient, a salty taste seasoning agent comprising the peptide and salt, and a food or beverage comprising the salty taste enhancer or the salty taste seasoning agent.

Matrix compositions which contain a mixture of two different food polymers are useful for encapsulating encapsulates, such as flavoring agents.

Disclosed here is a composition containing menthol and menthyl lactate, and its preparation method and its applications as a cooling agent and a flavoring agent.The present invention provides a composition characterized in that it comprises menthol and menthyl lactate in a ratio by weight in the range of 1:4˜4:1 and the corresponding crystallization point is below room temperature of 25° C. Such composition has the advantages of being liquid at room temperature; easy to use as a cooling agent or a flavoring agent; no need to use heat to melt menthol and menthyl lactate, which not only saves time, money and heating equipment, but also simplifies manufacturing process and can be used in cold processes at room temperature. The composition can be used as a cooling and / or flavoring agent and / or a fragrance ingredient in toothpaste, mouthwash, fragrance, cleansers, shaving cream, after shave products; shampoo, deodorant, antiperspirant, bath products, drinks, confectionary products, tobacco, pharmaceutical, foods, flavoring and fragrance products.

A dental device has a U-shaped carrier with at least one channel for embracing an arch of teeth. The carrier has recessed insets in the channel. Discrete inserts carrying a beneficial agent can fit into the insets and release the agent gradually. When the device is used in a primarily therapeutic application, the inserts may be installed into all or less than all of the insets to form various insert patterns. Thus, different oral regions can be affected by different insert patterns. When the device is used as an athletic mouthguard, temporary blanks may be initially fitted in the insets, while a portion of the mouthguard is softened before an arch of teeth is pressed into the channel to make a custom impression. The inserts that are later installed in the insets possess different physical properties than the carrier and may be positioned and shaped to mechanically buffer teeth of the arch from mechanical shocks as well as release beneficial agents. The inserts may be replaced or refreshed to maintain the beneficial agent, which may be xylitol, remineralizing agents, moisturizing agents, desensitizing agents, flavoring agents, breath fresheners, chemical and biological indicators, nutraceuticals, antibiotics, probiotics, other medications and chemotherapeutics, or other agents.

A cookie or other food product which is designed to deliver a larger dose of cinnamon or other additive such as fruit extract or rind to a human user without significant introduction of food items detrimental to additive(s)'s expected medicinal action and without an unpleasant taste sensation. The cookie is designed to be chewed as opposed to swallowed and the flavoring of the additive(s) is intended to enhance the cookie as opposed to the flavoring being covered up or concealed by other flavorings.

Buccal aerosol sprays or capsule using polar and non-polar solvent have now been developed which provide biologically active compounds for rapid absorption through the oral mucosa, resulting in fast onset of effect. The buccal polar compositions of the invention comprises formulation I: aqueous polar solvent 30-99.89%, active compound 0.001-60%, optionally containing flavoring agent 0.1-10%. Propellant 2-10%. The non polar composition of the invention comprises formulation II: non-polar solvent 20-85%, active compound 0.005-50%, and optionally flavoring agent 0.1-10% and propellant 50-80%.
