  • Publication number: 20170209615
    Abstract: It relates to a nonwoven fabric membrane for topical use on the skin, which comprises polymeric nanofibres and an active agent in an amount from 25 to 80% by weight with respect to the total weight of the nonwoven fabric membrane, wherein the active agent is soluble in a suitable biocompatible solvent system, and wherein the membrane is capable of releasing the active agent immediately when the membrane is contacted with an appropriate amount of the suitable solvent biocompatible system in which the active agent is completely solubilised. It also relates to a process for the preparation of the nonwoven fabric membrane, to a cosmetic or sanitary product and a kit comprising them and to their therapeutic and cosmetic uses.

  • Patent number: 9561190
    Abstract: The invention defines a nonwoven membrane for the controlled and sustained release of a therapeutic or cosmetic active agent in the area of the body to be treated. This nonwoven membrane comprises one single type of biocompatible electrospun nanofibers and microparticles of at least one therapeutic or cosmetic active agent which are entangled between the nanofibers, the active agent having a low water solubility.

  • Publication number: 20040087026
    Abstract: The invention relates to host cells for packing a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV). Said cells contain at least one copy of a first auxiliary construct for expressing at least one AAV Rep protein, and at least one copy of another auxiliary construct for expressing at least one AAV Cap protein. The invention also relates to auxiliary constructs for expressing at least one AAV Rep protein and one AAV Cap protein in a host cell; vector constructs comprising at least one nucleic acid which is heterologous in relation to the AAV; a method for producing a host cell for packing a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV); and the use of the host cell for producing an rAAV.
