Massimo Pizzichini has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10653742
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a phytocomplex or natural concentrate rich in polyphenolic compounds, such as hydroxytyrosol and 3,4-DHPA-EDA, derived from the vegetation waters of oil-bearing olives or from olive pomace resulting from the olive milling process for use in the treatment and prevention of angiogenesis and inflammation. In particular, the angiogenesis and inflammation to which reference is made is pathologic angiogenesis and inflammation, for example that which sustains the development and spread of a tumor or angiogenesis and inflammation tied to non-tumor pathologies. The present invention further relates to a beverage comprising the polyphenol concentrate and the use thereof in the treatment and prevention of angiogenesis and inflammation.

  • Patent number: 8815815
    Abstract: Methods are provided for obtaining phytoextracts from vegetation waters and pomaces coming from olive milling. Such methods may be based on combining physical-chemical and enzymatic pre-treatment methods, membrane tangential filtration and vacuum evaporation. Such methods allow eco-sustainable and efficient extraction of the active ingredients involved. Compositions resulting from such methods are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20130131328
    Abstract: Process for fractioning and refining natural products obtainable from waste vegetal material and particularly from artichoke (Cynara scolymus) production or from other plants of the Cynara genus such as the cultivated or wild cardoon. The process is based on the use of membrane separation technologies envisaging a tangential microfiltration (MF) phase on the raw decoction, followed by tangential ultrafiltration (UF) on the previous MF permeate and reverse osmosis (RO) on the UF permeate, in order to obtain a retentate rich in concentrated active ingredients and a permeate consisting of ultrapure water that is recycled for the preparation of the decoction. The process enables obtaining purified extracts of high biological valence to be used in the pharmaceutical industry, in the nutraceutic sector, in the cosmetics industry and for innovative products in the food industry.
