Abstract: The present technology is direct to methods of producing 6,6?-diamino-6,6?-deoxy-trehalose (“DATH”) or a salt thereof. The methods include optionally protecting one or more hydroxyl groups of D-trehalose and converting the primary hydroxyl groups of D-trehalose to product DATH or a salt thereof through use of a halogen, azide, and/or protected amine to. The present technology is also direct to intermediate products of the methods.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions comprising hydrogels and solid particles and their use. More specifically, the proposed technique relates to methods for manufacturing of a composition comprising solid particles encapsulated within crosslinked polysaccharide molecules forming hydrogel particles, the method comprising mixing water-soluble polysaccharide molecules comprising one or more carboxyl groups, water insoluble solid particles, a di- or multinucleophilic functional crosslinker, and a coupling agent, in a water suspension at pH between 5 and 9, to form a composition comprising a hydrogel of crosslinked polysaccharide molecules encapsulating the solid particles. The disclosure comprises the composition, methods for producing the composition and use of the composition as a dermal filler.

Abstract: A graft copolymer comprising: a core polymer comprising a crosslinked or non-crosslinked polysaccharide, a plurality of primary graft polymers covalently grafted to the core polymer, a plurality of secondary graft polymers covalently grafted to each primary graft polymer, an injectable dermal aesthetic formulation comprising such a graft copolymer and a method of preparing such a graft copolymer.

Abstract: A method for treating or preventing the symptoms associated with hang over in an individual suffering from or being at risk for such conditions. The method includes the steps of: i) providing the composition of the invention containing AP, and ii) contacting AP with the mediator a) within the individual, or b) separate from the individual.

Abstract: A composition for treating or preventing inflammatory-related conditions includes as an active principle a carrier which exhibits a plurality of a scavenger structure capable of mitigating the activity of a mediator of inflammatory-related conditions. The scavenger structure includes a nucleophilic center complying with the formula X1(—R?—)(—R?)mHn where: a) X1 is a single-bonded heteroatom selected amongst N, O and S and exhibits a free electron pair; b) m is 0 or 1 and n is 1 or 2; c) —R?— is a bivalent organic group providing attachment to the carrier via one of its free valences and to X1 at the other free valence; and d) R?— is a monovalent organic group attached to the X1 via its free valence. A method for treating or preventing inflammatory-related conditions in an individual suffering from such conditions includes: providing the composition; and contacting the mediator within or separate from the individual.

Abstract: A graft copolymer comprising: a core polymer comprising a crosslinked or non-crosslinked polysaccharide, a plurality of primary graft polymers covalently grafted to the core polymer, a plurality of secondary graft polymers covalently grafted to each primary graft polymer, an injectable dermal aesthetic formulation comprising such a graft copolymer and a method of preparing such a graft copolymer.

Abstract: A composition, which upon activation, spontaneously forms a cross-linked hydrogel in aqueous liquid, includes: a) a formulation containing a hyluronan (HA-formulation) which includes a hyaluronan backbone (HA backbone) and a plurality of a reactive substituent group (reactive HA substituent) which i) is directly attached to the HA backbone, and ii) exhibits the reactive HA-group, and b) a formulation of a homo-multifunctional cross-linking reagent (CLR-formulation) exhibiting a plurality of a reactive group (reactive CLR-group). The two reactive groups are selected as a pair of counterparts that mutually and selectively react with each other to form a linkage structure. The hydrogel contains a cross-linking structure which a) is attached to the hyaluronan via two or more of the linkage structure and is defined by the reagent. The cross-linking structure exhibits a plurality of hydroxyl groups. The composition can be used in vivo or ex vivo as a support matrix.
