Abstract: The present invention provides for compounds of formula (I): which are a class of dopamine agonists, more particularly a class of agonists that are selective for D3 over D2. These compounds are useful for the treatment and/or prevention of sexual dysfunction, for example female sexual dysfunction (FSD), in particular female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD), hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD; lack of interest in sex), female orgasmic disorder (FOD; inability to achieve orgasm); and male sexual dysfunction, in particular male erectile dysfunction (MED). Male sexual dysfunction as referred to herein is meant to include ejaculatory disorders such as premature ejaculation, anorgasmia (inability to achieve orgasm) or desire disorders such as hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD; lack of interest in sex). These compounds are also useful in treating neuropsychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract: A biocomposite material (1) and methods of production thereof are described. The biocomposite material (1) exhibits a physical stiffness, strength and toughness comparable to known glass fibre composites while its composition makes it inherently impermeable to water. A general formulation for the biocomposite material (1) is given by the expression: Cel(1-x-y) HPIx HPOy where “Cel” represents cellulose fragments (2), “HPI” represents hydrophilic binders (4), “HPO” represents hydrophobic binders (5) and (x) and (y) quantify the percentage by weight of the hydrophilic (4) and hydrophobic binders (5) present within a material, respectively. The described properties of the biocomposite material (1) are achieved when (x) is within the range of from 0.05 to 0.55 and (y) is within the range of from 0.05 to 0.65.
