Abstract: The invention relates to biological biocomposites which comprise a collagen scaffold containing probiotics entrapped into the collagen scaffold and exopolysaccharides. The invention also relates to methods for obtaining the biocomposites as well as to the use of biocomposites in medicine and, more in particular, in the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for increasing embryo implantation rate in a uterus, for preventing embryo implantation failure in a female subject suffering PCOS and for improving pregnancy rate comprising administering a composition comprising myo-inositol and D-chiro-Inositol in a weight ratio between 1:1 to 9:1 respectively to a female subject suffering PCOS. The invention also relates to a composition comprising myo-inositol and D-chiro-Inositol in a weight ratio between 1:1 to 9:1 respectively for use in the treatment or prevention of PCOS in a female subject, for use in the treatment or prevention of infertility in a female subject suffering polycystic ovary syndrome, or for use in preventing or reducing the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in a female subject suffering polycystic ovary syndrome and subjected to ovary stimulation treatment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a probiotic strain selected from Lactobacillus reuteri V340 with accession number CECT and Bifidobacterium breve BT820 with accession number CECT 8606, or a variant of said probiotic strain having cholesterol-absorbing capacity, and to methods and therapeutic uses thereof. The invention also relates to compositions, pharmaceutical compositions, feeds or nutritional products comprising a probiotic strain selected from Lactobacillus reuteri V3401 with accession number CECT 8605 and Bifidobacterium breve BT820 with accession number CECT 8606, or a variant of said probiotic strain having cholesterol-absorbing capacity.
