Abstract: A method for the in vitro diagnosis of an invasive fungal infection by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The method involves, providing a liquid biological sample from a mammal, said biological sample containing, in particular, proteins and/or lipids and/or salts and/or polysaccharides and/or oligosaccharides and/or monosaccharides capable of forming complexes with said proteins and/or lipids and/or salts; treating said sample with biological liquid so as to extract said polysaccharides and/or oligosaccharides and/or monosaccharides; determining, by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, whether or not there is present among said extracted polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and/or monosaccharides, at least one given compound of interest coming from said fungal microorganism and chosen from polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and monosaccharides; and deducing, if said given compound of interest is present in said sample, that said mammal is suffering from an invasive fungal infection.

Abstract: A method for preparing a biomaterial containing at least one bioactive molecule from a base biomaterial, comprising the following successive operations carried out on the base biomaterial: a) application of a solid mixture of: cyclodextrin(s) and/or cyclodextrin derivative(s) and/or cyclodextrin inclusion complex(es) and/or cyclodextrin derivative inclusion complex(es), at least one poly(carboxylic) acid, and optionally a catalyst; b) heating at a temperature between 100° C. and 200° C. for a period of 1 to 60 minutes; c) washing with water; d) drying, wherein at least one bioactive agent is incorporated in the biomaterial by impregnation of the biomaterial after the drying step in a concentrated solution of the bioactive agent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the compound of formula (I) for use in the treatment of a nonsense-mutation-mediated genetic disease.
