Abstract: The invention relates to a novel glucose polymer which is particularly useful for administration by the parenteral route, and to the method for the production thereof. The invention also relates to compositions comprising such a glucose polymer, and to the methods for the production thereof. The invention further relates to the use thereof as a medicament, for example as an osmotic agent for peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract: One subject of the present invention is the use of a combination of a polyol (i) consisting of 12 carbon atoms and of a polyol (ii) consisting of 4 to 6 carbon atoms, as protein stabilizer. Another subject of the present invention is protein compositions comprising such a combination. A final subject of the present invention is a process for preparing protein compositions using such a combination.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a film (6) includes the following steps: a) a film-forming mixture containing at least one film-forming agent is prepared; b) a dose of the mixture is deposited in a cell (4) of a cellular substrate (2), the mixture having a viscosity ranging from 1 to 8000 mPa·s at the temperature of the film-forming mixture during the deposition; c) the mixture is cured so as to obtain a film (6); and d) the cell (4) is closed off by a hermetic sealing element (3). A device (1) especially suitable for the method and a device intended to implement the method are also described.

Abstract: A device for anatomically restoring a tooth having a proximal caries (5) made of an elastically deformable material. Two end units (2a, 2b) are connected by a vertical wall (3) whose height (hp) is greater than its thickness (e). The two end units are separable from each other by a pair of forceps (6). The vertical wall (3) is shaped in the form of a corner, the height thereof (hp) of which is sufficiently high in such a way that it forms an inter-dental partition for the proximal caries (5) when the end units (2a, 2b) are brought into contact with the walls of the tooth in front of the caries.

Abstract: Process for sterilising a resistant starch composition comprising: (a) dispersing said resistant starch composition in oil; (b) heating the starch/oil dispersion obtained in step (a) to a target temperature of 100 to 175° C., preferably about 150° C.; and (c) cooling the starch/oil dispersion; sterilised resistant starch obtained by this process and uses thereof.
