Abstract: A composition including at least one crosslinked or non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid, or one of its salts, and at least one water-soluble salt of sucrose octasulphate, to processes for the manufacture of said composition and to the use of said composition for the formulation of a viscosupplementation composition or for the formulation of a composition as a dermal filler or for the formulation of a cosmetic composition.

Abstract: A process for the simultaneous substitution and crosslinking of a polysaccharide via its hydroxyl functional groups, in an aqueous phase, which includes the following steps: a polysaccharide is placed in an aqueous medium, it is brought into the presence of at least one precursor of a substituent, it is brought into the presence of a crosslinking agent, the substituted and crosslinked polysaccharide is obtained and isolated, wherein process is carried out in the presence of a basic or acidic catalyst, the concentration of which is between 3.16×10?7 and 0.32 mol/L, and at a temperature of less than 60° C. In one embodiment, the polysaccharide is in the form of a gel or hydrogel which is used in particular as augmentation biomaterial.

Abstract: Implant that is injectable by a sub-cutaneous or intradermal route in the form of a monophasic hydrogel comprising a gel made up of cross-linked hyaluronic acid and one of its physiologically acceptable salts.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the crosslinking of polysaccharides. The process of the invention is a process for the crosslinking of at least one polymer selected from polysaccharides and their derivatives, under the action of at least one polyfunctional crosslinking agent, characterized in that said polyfunctional crosslinking agent is reacted with said polymer, in the solid state, during hydration. The invention is applied to the manufacture of hydrogels and gels that can be used, in particular, in plastic or cosmetic surgery.

Abstract: Biocompatible diphasic compositions are prepared comprising a dispersed phase suspended in a continuous phase, more particularly suitable for use as a filling material in reparative and plastic surgery. The dispersed phase consists of particles of at least one hydrogel of a (co)polymer obtained by polymerizing and cross-linking acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and/or at least one derivative of said acids. The continuous phase is an aqueous solution or hydrogel of a polymer selected from proteins, polysaccharides and their derivatives which have been cross-linked. The polysaccharide may be hyaluronic acid, its salts and a mixture of its salts, advantageously consisting of a sodium hyaluronate.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for separating metals present in a solution using chitosane. According to the present invention, chitosane in modified physical form is used which allows faster, more extensive fixation of the metals present in a solution. This purpose is achieved using a method in which the chitosane used is a lyophilizate of chitosane, in particular a lyophilizate of chitosane salt.
