  • Publication number: 20230227882
    Abstract: Royal jelly honey produced by nurse bees, honey and milk has great values in human health and/or beauty. This invention aims to produce royal jelly honey substitute, honey substitute, animal free milk without the need for bees or cows or goats. First, recombinant major royal jelly proteins (MRJPs), defensin-1, and milk proteins are produced by microbes (such as bacteria, yeasts, or fungi) using precision fermentation. The MRJPs, defensin-1 or milk proteins are then formulated with vitamins, water, minerals, fats, salt and/or amino acids to produce a bee-free royal jelly honey substitute, bee-free honey substitute or animal free milk. MRJPs can also be formulated with vitamins, water, minerals, fats, salt, amino acids and recombinant milk proteins to produce animal-free milk or milk substitutes with supplemental MRJPs. Plant-based milks can also be supplemented with MRJPs and recombinant milk proteins.

  • Patent number: 9469728
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are pH- and temperature-sensitive block copolymer with excellent safety and a method for preparing the same and a hydrogel and a drug carrier using the block copolymer. According to the present invention, the pH- and temperature-sensitive block copolymer comprises: obtained by copolymerization of: (a) polyethylene glycol-based compound (A); and (b) poly (?-amino ester)-based oligomer (B) or poly (amido amine)-based oligomer (C) or coupling of mixture (D) thereof. In order to control biodegradation rate, the block copolymer is mixed with poly (amido amine)-based oligomer instead of the poly (?-amino ester)-based oligomer and then coupling them.

  • Publication number: 20150267196
    Abstract: A composition includes a biodegradable hydrogel that includes a hydrogel forming base polymer and a plurality of physiologically degradable ester linkages, amide linkages, azide-alkyne cycloaddition linkages, acrylate-thiol linkages, urethane linkages, and/or methacrylate-thiol linkages, a polynucleotide coupling polymeric molecule; and a polynucleotide. The polynucleotide is released under physiological conditions in a spatial and/or temporally controlled or predetermined manner from the composition.

  • Patent number: 8835492
    Abstract: Disclosed is a block copolymer formed by coupling the following components with each other: (a) a copolymer (A) of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) type compound with a biodegradable polymer; and (b) at least one oligomer (B) selected from the group consisting of poly(?-amino ester) and poly(amido amine). A method for preparing the same block copolymer, and a polymeric hydrogel type drug composition comprising the temperature and pH-sensitive block copolymer and a physiologically active substance that can be encapsulated with the block copolymer are also disclosed. The multiblock copolymer is obtained by copolymerization of a pH-sensitive poly(?-amino ester) and/or poly(amido amine) type oligomer, a hydrophilic and temperature-sensitive polyethylene glycol type compound and a hydrophobic and biodegradable polymer.
