Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing nanofibers and nanofiber membranes and to the nanofibers and nanofiber membranes obtainable by such process.

Abstract: The invention provides a composition for use as a delivery vehicle comprising at least one thermo-responsive polymer (polymer A) and at least one ion-sensitive polymer (polymer B) in a liquid formulation. Polymer A is preferably a polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene block copolymer or a cellulose derivative. Polymer B a polysaccharide. The composition can include an active substance for delivery or can be used as a delivery vehicle for a substance added at the time of administration such as mesenchymal stem cells.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing nanofibers and nanofiber membranes and to the nanofibers and nanofiber membranes obtainable by such process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an oil-in-water nanoemulsion comprising an oil phase comprising at least one essential oil or water-immiscible phase comprising a hydrophobic polymer and/or a hydrophobic active dispersed in an aqueous phase, said nanoemulsion comprising nanometric droplets of said essential oil or said active with an interface consisting of amphiphilic derivatives of chitosan and at least one fatty acid, obtained by ionic interaction between the deacetylated amino groups of said chitosan and the carboxylic groups of said fatty acid.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions useful in the treatment of sexual and urogenital dysfunctions such as dyspareunia, vulvodynia, vaginismus, vestibulitis and anal fistulas.

Abstract: The invention relates to topical formulations in the form of a bioadhesive hydrophilic gel comprising acyclovir as active ingredient, Sodium hyaluronate and an acrylic polymer. Said formulations improve the local administration of acyclovir in the treatment of herpes infections, because they possess good properties of adherence to the mucosa and high resistance to physiological removal mechanisms.

Abstract: The present invention concerns the use of platelet lysate for treating and/or preventing mucositis. Moreover, a mucoadhesive composition comprising such a platelet lysate for the therapy and/or prevention of mucositis and of corneal lesions is described.
