Abstract: A sterilized aqueous composition includes at least one hyaluronic acid or salt thereof and at least mepivacaine or salt thereof. The weight ratio between the concentration of hyaluronic acid [HA] and the concentration of mepivacaine [MEPI]-[HA]/[MEPI]- is no lower than 0.1. Mepivacaine may be used as a substitute for lidocaine in an equivalent amount in order to obtain a hyaluronic acid composition including a local anaesthetic with rheological properties after heat sterilization that are superior to the rheological properties of the same composition of hyaluronic acid except including lidocaine.

Abstract: An injectable sterilized aqueous composition including at least one hyaluronic acid, at least one polyol and at least one local anesthetic chosen from the group made of benzocaine, chloroprocaine, procaine, etidocaine, aptocaine, chlorobutanol, diamocaine, dyclonine, guafecainol, polidocanol, mepivacaine, prilocaine, articaine, bupivacaine, ropivacaine, tetracaine and salts thereof and isolated isomers thereof. The invention also relates to a process for adapting the rheological properties of a heat sterilized injectable aqueous composition. The invention also relates to a process for producing an injectable sterilized aqueous composition according to the invention, and also to uses of said injectable sterilized aqueous composition according to the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sterilized composition comprising at least one hyaluronic acid or biologically acceptable salt thereof, alone or in a mixture, and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, in a ratio [HA]/[MAP] by mass of the amount of hyaluronic acid or salt thereof [HA] to the amount of magnesium ascorbyl phosphate [MAP] of greater than or equal to 1, the amount of magnesium ascorbyl phosphate being between 0.001% and 1% by weight, relative to the total weight of said composition, with an elastic component G? which is retained or improved after sterilization and is between 5 and 400 Pa. It also relates to a composition of the invention which further includes dimethyl sulfone, to methods for producing same, and to uses thereof.

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.
