Abstract: This invention has as its object a method for releasing a product by subjecting a compound of Formula (II?): R?7R?8(HX)C1-C2(YH)R?9R?10 to a chemical oxidation that cleaves the bond C1-C2 to obtain the product. In the compound of Formula (II?): R?7 to R?10, which are identical or different, correspond to a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted functional group; X and Y, which are identical or different, are an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or an amine of Formula —NR11R12, wherein R11 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, and R12 is not a hydrogen atom. The invention also has as its object a method for releasing a product that comprises, before the chemical oxidation stage, a first step for preparing the compound of Formula (II?). The released product can be a volatile molecule or an active substance or else a specific product.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a newly identified hydrolase from thermophilic microorganisms having thermostable properties, and more specifically, to a novel thermostable hydrolase showing high activity at high temperatures.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method for producing a hybridization complex whose stability is substantially independent of the base composition of two hybridized nucleic acid molecules, consisting in contacting a first nucleic acid molecule with a second nucleic acid molecule under conditions enabling the formation of a specific hybridization complex. The invention is characterized in that at least one of the four types of bases contained in the sequence of the first and/or of the second nucleic acid molecule is a modified base having pairing properties close to those of the natural base it replaces, such that at least one of the two types of the base pair contained in the composition of the complex comprises a modified base and in that the totality of the base pairs contained in the composition of the said complex has a like stability.

Abstract: This invention has as its object a method for releasing a product by subjecting a compound of Formula (II′): R′7R′8(HX)C1-C2(YH)R′9R′10 to a chemical oxidation that cleaves the bond C1-C2 to obtain the product. In the compound of Formula (II′): R′7 to R′10, which are identical or different, correspond to a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted functional group; X and Y, which are identical or different, are an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or an amine of Formula -NR11R12, wherein R11 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, and R12 is not a hydrogen atom. The invention also has as its object a method for releasing a product that comprises, before the chemical oxidation stage, a first step for preparing the compound of Formula (II′). The released product can be a volatile molecule or an active substance or else a specific product.
