Abstract: The invention relates to a novel extract from the resin of a plant of the genus Boswellia (Burseraceae). The invention further relates to a composition comprising the novel extract, in particular a pharmaceutical composition or a cosmetic composition, or a food supplement, a food or a beverage comprising the extract. Further, the invention concerns the use of the extract and the respective compositions, in particular the use of the extract or a composition comprising the extract in the cosmetic or therapeutic field as well as in food supplements. The invention also relates to the novel extract and the respective compositions for use in the treatment and/or prevention of a disease. A method of treatment and/or prevention of a neurodegenerative disease is further provided. A process is also provided, by which the novel extract is obtained.

Abstract: The invention relates to a (i) Vitamin A, a reaction product, a metabolite or a precursor of it and (ii) a plant extract of chamomile or an active component thereof, preferably for use in the treatment of cancer. The inventive composition may be provided as a medicament or a pharmaceutical composition. The at least one Chamomilla plant typically contained in the inventive compositions preferably comprises Matricaria recutita, more preferably fibres tubiformis of Matricaria recutita. Esters of Retinol typically contained in the inventive compositions typically comprise e.g. Retinyl acetate and a plant extract from the plant Matricaria recutita.

Abstract: A stable, homogeneous extract of plants or plant parts prepared by a process comprising: (a) mixing plants or plant parts charged in a fresh and/or dried state with at least one solvent and at least one agent and extracting the plants or plant parts with the solvent and agent, and thereafter filtering insoluble compounds to obtain a filtrate; or (b) mixing and extracting plants or parts thereof charged in a fresh and/or dried state with at least one solvent, thereafter filtering insoluble compounds therefrom, and thereafter mixing with at least one agent to obtain a filtrate; wherein the filtrate is substantially free of secondary reaction products and contains a native compound mixture.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of a stable, homogenous extract of plants or plant parts is disclosed. The process comprises mixing and extracting the plants or plant parts charged in a fresh and/or dried state with at least one solvent and at least one agent (having various disclosed properties), then filtering insoluble compounds to obtain a filtrate which is substantially free of secondary reaction products and contains a native compound mixture. The filtrate is concentrated to a spissum extract and the pressure used for the concentration is adjusted according to the vapor pressure of the solvent(s).
