Abstract: The present invention relates to topical compositions comprising D-panthenol, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT) and hydroxyacetophenone (HAP) in specific weight ratios which show less staining.

Abstract: A centrifuge device is provided for the sizing and separation of constituents of a biologic mixture, e.g., adipose tissue. The device provides for the mechanical breaking down of the fibrous structure in the tissue by centrifugation causing the tissue to pass through a mesh element, or a sizing helix, or an extrusion element, whereupon the material is reduced to a slurry. This processed material may then be separated by centrifugation into its constituents, in order to harvest the fraction containing the multipotent cells. These multipotent cells may be utilized for various medical procedures to stimulate healing and tissue regeneration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a steviol glycoside having the formula of (I) wherein at least 3 sugar moieties are present at positions R1 and at least three sugar moieties are present at position R2 and wherein the steviol glycoside comprises at least seven sugar moieties all of which are linked, directly or indirectly, to the steviol aglycon by ?-linkages.

Abstract: The current invention relates to a method of isolating polyunsaturated fatty acids containing lipids from a lipids containing biomass. The method involves providing a suspension of cells with a PUFAs-containing lipid; optionally lysing the cells; concentrating the suspension; adding base equivalents to the suspension based on the total dry matter present; feeding a continuous reactor with the suspension; and separating the lipids-containing light phase from the water and cell debris-containing heavy phase.

Abstract: The present invention relates to topical compositions comprising panthenol, hydroxyacetophenone and a micronized UV filter.
