  • Patent number: 11937625
    Abstract: The invention relates to a nutraceutical formulation of blueberry extract, fish oil (omega-3 and omega-6), recombinant human lactoferrin, vitamin A and vitamin E, for human oral consumption. The invention belongs to the field of ophthalmology and has been developed as a coadjuvant for preserving the health of the precorneal film and of the eye surface. This formulation contains an extract of natural origin (Vaccinium myrtillus L) with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties; it also uses eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), omega-6, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), omega-3, obtained from fish oil and which, together with lactoferrin, vitamin A and vitamin E, improves tear quality, since these compounds have anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory effects. This formulation has been designed as a coadjuvant for preserving the health of the precorneal film.

  • Publication number: 20230270912
    Abstract: Disclosed is a formulation which, in association with a grinding system, transforms biohazardous wastes unto raw material for the preparation of composts, enabling biohazardous infectious waste to be inactivated for use and industrial biohazardous infectious waste to be inactivated for reuse as a protein source for producing protein products. The formulation can be used to eliminate microorganisms in waste resulting from the production of drugs and vaccines in ovo, with applications in biohazardous infectious waste and animal waste with a high protein content and decomposition potential for the preparation of composts.

  • Publication number: 20220047659
    Abstract: Described is a symbiotic formulation for the oral consumption of probiotics and prebiotics with an aqueous extract of roselle, with vitamins and proteins for humans. The invention belongs to the field of nutrition and has been developed to help to maintain a healthy digestive system by restoring and/or improving the intestinal microbiota. The purpose of the antioxidants and the synergic effect of the symbiotic formulation is to reduce the inflammatory process so as to facilitate the absorption of nutrients and thus improve the good nutritional state of people. An oral symbiotic formulation based on an aqueous roselle extract with encapsulated probiotics and which can contribute to the consumption of antioxidants of natural origin, the ingestion of proteins and micronutrients for re-establishing or improving the state of the intestinal microbiota, as well as the nutritional state of adults and older people, has not been found in the prior art.

  • Publication number: 20210259546
    Abstract: Diabetes is a disease characterized by high levels of blood glucose. It is important to keep diabetes under control to avoid short- and long-term complications. Diabetes can affect vision due to the alterations it produces in the blood vessels of the retina. This is known as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), which is one of the leading causes of impaired vision in developed countries. One of the complications of diabetic retinopathy is Diabetic Macular Edema (DME), which is the leading cause of vision loss in diabetic patients and can appear at any stage of diabetic retinopathy. This consists of the gradual accumulation of fluid in the macula, the most important area of the retina. The determination of diabetic macular oedema is very important for the retina. The determination of diabetic macular oedema is very important for adequate treatment of this condition.
