Abstract: The invention concerns a nutritional or therapeutic agent comprising a molecule mix obtained from Vitis vinifera and Vaccinium angustifolium, comprising: at least 1% of catechins and epicatechins, the percentage being given by weight in relation to the total weight of the mix, preferably at least 5%, at least 5 ppm (parts per million in the mix) of ferulic acid, preferably at least 10 ppm. The invention also relates to the use of this agent due to its effects on cognitive functions in particular.

Abstract: The invention concerns a plant extract obtained from saffron, with a safranal concentration, measured using the HPLC method, of a minimum of 0.2% in weight relative to the total dry matter weight. The invention also concerns a procedure for obtaining such an extract, as well as compositions including this extract, and its use.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments concerns a traction pad to be bonded for coating adhesion or surface cohesion tests by tearing including a counterbore designed to control the thickness of the adhesive film. Support elements such as wedges or a border maintain the base of the counterbore at the required distance from the tested surface and openings are provided for evacuating the adhesive prior to its controlled hardening when the traction pad is applied on the tested surface.

Abstract: In order to conduct tests designed to determine the adherence properties of a coating on a substrate, a pull plate of a hardenable material is molded directly to the surface of a coating applied to a substrate. The pull plate geometry is determined by the mold cavity and is made of a material that adheres to the coating surface during the molding process. The pull plate therefore, is only used once, while the mold may be reused.

Abstract: In order to conduct tests designed to characterize the adherence properties of coatings onto substrates, the process consists of creating pull plates of a hardenable material directly on the surface before the surface is subjected to the tests, by means of a mold. The pull plate whose geometry is determined by a cavity in the mold is made of a material such as an epoxy or acrylic or polyurethane polymer that adheres to the surface to be tested during the creation of the plate. The plate thus created is only used once, one mold being able to be designed to make several plates and to be reused several times.
