  • Patent number: 11247077
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a synergistic extract of Palmaria palmata and of jasmine flower heads, obtained after aqueous extraction of Palmaria palmata, in which maceration of the jasmine flower heads is then carried out, the ratio of the dry weight of Palmaria palmata to the dry weight of the flower heads being between 40/60 and 95/5. The present invention also relates to a method for obtaining said synergistic extract and cosmetic compositions comprising said extract as an active agent. The invention finally relates to the cosmetic use of said composition for combating the signs of aging and for improving the elasticity of the skin, by favoring maintenance of the “stem” character of the adult dermal stem cells (SKPs).

  • Publication number: 20180371000
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for obtaining an aqueous extract enriched with small RNA having a maximum length of 150 nucleotides, from plant material. The invention is characterized in that it comprises the following steps according to which: a) the plant material is put in contact with water; b) tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is added to the mixture obtained in a) at a pH between 10.5 and 11; c) then, the pH of the mixture obtained in b) is adjusted to a value between 6 and 8; d) the mixture obtained in c) is purified in such a manner as to eliminate the plant material and to recover an aqueous raw extract; and e) the pH is checked and readjusted if necessary to a value between 6 and 8.
