[0001]DESCRIPTION OF INTRAMAMMARY FORMULATIONS FOR MASTITIS Field of the invention The present invention falls within the field of the treatment and / or prevention of mastitis in non-human mammals. Background of the invention Mastitis, especially in cattle, is one of the most prevalent diseases in the European livestock industry, affecting 40% of cows on farms that lack mastitis control programs. Furthermore, it represents an economic burden exceeding €185 per cow per year (€1.5 billion per year in the EU). Mastitis is thus the most important disease affecting dairy cattle, not only in terms of animal health due to its high prevalence, but also because of the associated economic consequences [(Kromker V, Leimbach S.2017. Mastitis treatment-Reduction in antibiotic usage in dairy cows.Reprod Domest Anim 52 Suppl 3: 21-29); and (Nalon E, Stevenson P. 2019.Protection of Dairy Cattle in the EU: State of Play and Directions for Policymaking from a Legal and Animal Advocacy Perspective. Animals, Basel, 9). Mastitis is characterized by inflammation of the mammary gland and udder tissues due to trauma, chemical irritation, or, more commonly, infection by pathogens [(Ruegg PL.2017. A 100-Year Review: Mastitis detection, management, and prevention. J Dairy Sci 100: 10381-97); and (Gomes F, Henriques M.2016. Control of Bovine Mastitis: Old and Recent Therapeutic Approaches. Curr Microbiol 72: 377-82)]. Based on symptoms, mastitis can be classified as clinical or subclinical. Subclinical mastitis involves an increase in the somatic cell count (SCC), but without significant changes in milk characteristics. This type of mastitis does not pose a fatal risk to cows; it is less severe, but more common.It causes a reduction in milk production and quality, leading to significant economic losses. Furthermore, clinical mastitis is characterized by local signs of inflammation in the affected udder and visible abnormalities in the milk, and in some cases, it can be life-threatening for the animals [(Kromker V, Leimbach S.2017. Mastitis treatment-Reduction in antibioticusage in dairy cows. Reprod Domest Anim 52 Suppl 3: 21-29); and (Tezera M, Aman Ali E.2021.Prevalence and associated risk factors of Bovine mastitis in dairy cows in and around Assosa town, Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State, Western Ethiopia. Vet Med Sci 7: 1280-86)]. Among the microorganisms that cause mastitis are fungi, viruses, algae, and bacteria; the latter being the most common, with more than 140 different species reported. Depending on the causative microorganism or the mode of transmission, the pathology can also be classified as contagious or environmental.Contagious mastitis is primarily caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Streptococcus agalactiae (S. agalactiae), and Mycoplasma spp. It is transmitted between animals or between infected quarters of the same animal during milking through contaminated teat cups, the milker's hands, paper towels or cloths used to wash or dry more than one cow, and even insects such as flies. Environmental mastitis, on the other hand, is associated with different pathogens found in the environment: feces, soil, contaminated water, or milking equipment. The most frequent are Streptococcus uberis (S. uberis), Streptococcus dysgalactiae (S. dysgalactiae), Escherichia coli (E. coli), and Klebsiella spp. Antimicrobial drugs have been indispensable in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases over the last century.However, their indiscriminate use has led to a decrease in their effectiveness and an increase in the emergence of resistant bacterial strains, becoming a global health problem. Numerous international entities, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), have identified antimicrobial resistance (AMR) as the most significant health threat of the 21st century, currently responsible for 700,000 deaths annually [(Ferri M, Ranucci E, Romagnoli P, Giaccone V. 2017. Antimicrobial resistance: A global emerging threat to public health systems. Crit Rev Food Sci Nutr 57: 2857-76); and (Xiong W, Sun Y, Zeng Z. 2018. Antimicrobial use and antimicrobial resistance in food animals. Environ Sci Pollut Res Int 25: 18377-84)]. This aligns with the European Union's "One Health" plan [EU. 2017].A European One Health Action Plan against Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)] highlights the need to develop strategies to reduce the use of current antimicrobials and find new alternative therapies, especially in veterinary medicine, where antibiotic consumption is estimated to be twice that of humans (Van Boeckel TP, Brower C, Gilbert M, Grenfell BT, Levin SA, et al. 2015. Global trends in antimicrobial use in food animals. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 112: 5649-54). Bacterial infections are behind most cases of bovine mastitis, and antibiotics have been central to their treatment since the industrialization of milk production. They are administered via two routes: local intramammary and / or systemic parenteral. Intramammary administration offers advantages such as achieving high local concentrations of the drug with minimal systemic absorption, thus reducing side effects (Roberson JR. 2012. Treatment of clinical mastitis).Vet Clin North Am Food Anim Pract 28: 271-88); and (Gehring R, Smith GWJJovp, therapeutics. 2006. An overview of factors affecting the disposition of intramammary preparations used to treat bovine mastitis. 294: 237-41). In Spain, there are currently 106 formulations intended for the treatment of mastitis in dairy animals, 56 of which include antibiotics. These antibiotic formulations are solutions, suspensions, or emulsions for intramammary, intramuscular, intravenous, or subcutaneous administration, and include: amoxicillin, benzylpenicillin, cephalexin, cefquinone, enrofloxacin, erythromycin, marbofloxacin, oxytetracycline, or penetamate. It is estimated that 80% of antibiotics used in dairy animals are intended for the control and treatment of mastitis worldwide (Ashraf A, Imran M.2020. Causes, types, etiological agents, prevalence, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, effects on human health and future aspects of bovine mastitis.Anim Health Res Rev 21: 36-49). However, the use of antibiotics is not entirely satisfactory since antibiotics can pass into the milk, which is undesirable, and antibiotics may require long-term treatment, which is costly in terms of lost milk production, the price of the antibiotic, and the possibility of generating resistant strains. This scenario necessitates the search for non-antibiotic alternatives for the prevention and treatment of mastitis. For this reason, the development of antimicrobial products with active ingredients of natural origin for the prevention and / or treatment of this disease is presented as an approach of great interest. Specifically, grape pomace, the pressed grapes that mainly comprises the skin, residual pulp, seeds, and stems, is an important source of natural phytochemicals (WO2014013122A1).These phytochemicals are secondary metabolites that play a role in plant defense mechanisms, including polyphenols. Polyphenols have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, making them useful in the cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Furthermore, grape cultivation is one of the most abundant in the world, generating a large amount of waste that must be treated, disposed of, or reused. Therapies based on natural extracts derived from grape pomace will allow for a reduction in the use of conventional antimicrobial agents, addressing the problem of adverse drug reactions (ADRs), improving animal health and welfare, and promoting a circular economy. The intramammary ointment “KATA MAST. ®The product “Laboratorios Ovejero SA” is the only formulation available in Spain that includes natural extracts as active ingredients, specifically extracts of Avena sativa, Calendula officinalis, Echinacea purpurea, Hypericum perforatum, Phytolacca americana, and Solidago vigaurea. However, it is a homeopathic product with no approved therapeutic indications. In other European countries, only three compositions are available on the market (Slovakia, Italy, and Bulgaria) with active ingredients other than antibiotics and / or bismuth subnitrate. These are also homeopathic products. Their active ingredients include Thymus vulgaris, Atropa belladonna, and Phytolacca decandra. None of them contain any grape pomace extract among their active ingredients. Documents GR20190100213A, EP3158868A, and AU2015202530A1 describe topical formulations for breast prevention, which They comprise vegetable oils and bismuth subnitrate as active ingredients. The documents are by Tamara Manso.et al. (Pharmaceuticals, 2023, vol. 16 (7), 950), and Tamara Manso (“Evaluation of the antibacterial activity against clinical strains of a natural extract rich in polyphenols from Albariño white grape pomace”, Doctoral Thesis, 2023) disclose grape extracts obtained with ethyl lactate. The document Rodríguez Rama, JL et al. (Environmental Science and Pollution Research International, 2021, vol. 28 (19), 24270-24278) also discloses grape extracts but without indicating the solvent used for extraction. These documents do not disclose the extraction method of the present invention, much less extracts with characteristics like those of the extracts of the present invention. Therefore, there is a need in the market for formulations for the treatment of mastitis that are not based on antibiotics, but on natural extracts from abundant and sustainable sources such as those of viticultural origin, which can be administered intramammarily.Brief Description of the Invention: The inventors of the present invention have surprisingly discovered that white grape pomace extracts exhibit activity against mastitis. The inventors have therefore developed intramammary formulations comprising white grape extracts. These formulations constitute an alternative to the usual antimicrobial treatments used in the prevention and / or treatment of mastitis in animals. To date, no intramammary formulations for the prevention and / or treatment of mastitis in animals based on white grape pomace extracts with antimicrobial activity have existed.Therefore, a first aspect of the present invention relates to a white grape extract, characterized in that it comprises gallic acid, 2,4,6-trihydrobenzoic acid, caftaric acid, procyanidin B1, procyanidin B2, procyanidin C1, catechin, epigallocatechin gallate, epicatechin, epicatechin gallate, quercetin-3-glucuronide, quercetin-3-rutinoside, quercetin-3-glucoside, kaempferol, and quercetin. A second aspect of the present invention relates to a process for obtaining a white grape extract, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: a) Providing a mixture comprising white grape pomace and optionally a dispersant; b) Eluting the mixture with a solvent comprising propylene glycol and / or acetone; c) Collecting the white grape extract obtained after elution; and d) Optionally removing the solvent.A third aspect of the present invention relates to a white grape extract, characterized in that it is an extract obtainable according to the process of the invention. A fourth aspect of the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition, characterized in that it is a composition for intramammary administration comprising, as an active ingredient, the white grape extract of the invention. A fifth aspect of the present invention relates to an intramammary syringe comprising the pharmaceutical composition of the invention.

In a more preferred embodiment, the grape extract of the invention is characterized in that it does not comprise an essential fatty acid. In the context of this paragraph, the expression “does not comprise” is to be understood as synonymous with the fact that these acids are not detected using the UHPLC-QTOF technique. In the present invention, the transitional expression “comprises” is used as an open-ended expression.whose interpretation is broader than when the closed-type expression “consists of” is used. A claim that includes the expression “consists of” is limited solely to the technical elements defined in that claim and cannot be interpreted as encompassing any other element. On the other hand, a claim that contains the open-type expression “comprises” must be interpreted in the broadest sense and may (or may not) include other technical elements not explicitly mentioned, in addition to those explicitly defined, which are the essential technical elements of the invention. In a particular embodiment of all aspects described herein, and unless expressly stated otherwise, the term “comprises” may be replaced by “consists of,” in which case the considerations of the preceding paragraph would apply. In a particular embodiment,The white grape extract is characterized by the absence of anthocyanins. “Anthocyanins” refers to a group of flavonoid polyphenols comprising anthocyanins and anthocyanidins, which also includes the oxide combinations of an anthocyanidin with a sugar. They are responsible for the bluish-red color of the skin of red grapes. In another particular embodiment, the white grape extract is characterized by a pH between 4 and 8 measured in aqueous solution. The grape extract of the invention is applicable in the treatment of mastitis, preferably in a pharmaceutical composition for injection. Thus, in one particular embodiment, the extract is in solution, suspension, emulsion, or solid form, as a powder or paste (obtainable, for example, by freeze-drying or spray-drying). Water may optionally be added to the organic solvent extraction process.However, the grape pomace used as raw material for extraction already contains residual moisture. Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the grape extract of the invention is an aqueous extract. The organic solvent used in the extraction may evaporate, resulting in a white grape extract comprising water. Those skilled in the art will understand that the organic solvent may evaporate completely or partially. In this context, the extract comprises no more than 60% organic solvent, no more than 50% organic solvent, no more than 40% organic solvent, no more than 20% organic solvent, no more than 10% organic solvent, no more than 5% organic solvent, no more than 1% organic solvent, and preferably no more than 0.5% organic solvent.

In a preferred embodiment, the grape extract of the invention is an extract containing only water as a solvent. If no water is added during the process, the aqueous extract comprises water derived from the residual moisture of the pomace itself. Method of Obtaining The second aspect of the present invention relates to a method for obtaining a white grape extract characterized in that it comprises the steps of: a) Providing a mixture comprising white grape pomace and optionally a dispersant; b) Eluting the mixture with a solvent comprising propylene glycol and / or acetone; c) Collecting the white grape extract obtained after elution; and d) Optionally removing the solvent. The extraction process for obtaining the extract of the invention is carried out according to the method described in WO 2014013122 A1.but using elution solvents that had not been previously described. This adaptation exhibits two main advantages. On the one hand, the extract obtained comprises a distinct polyphenolic composition, which is very useful in the treatment of mastitis. On the other hand, the extract obtained can be easily volatilized, resulting in an aqueous extract that can be used directly in injectable compositions. In the present invention, “dispersant” is a solid material that can optionally be mixed with the bagasse. Mixing with a biological sample (such as bagasse) allows for its disruption and dispersion on its surface, so that the mechanical mixing disturbs the architecture of the sample, breaking the material into smaller pieces and increasing the release of the chemical compounds present inside the plant cells of the sample. In a particular embodiment of step (a),The white grape pomace is provided pre-crushed. In one particular embodiment, step (a) of the process comprises providing a mixture comprising white grape pomace and a dispersant. Preferably, the dispersant is selected from the group consisting of sand, Florisil, C18, alumina, and silica gel. More preferably, the dispersant is sand, and even more preferably sand of natural origin. In one particular embodiment, the grain size of the dispersant is selected from between 100 µm and 1 mm, preferably from between 250 µm and 320 µm. In another preferred embodiment, from between 0.5 and 0.8 mm. In a particular embodiment, step (a) of the process comprises providing a mixture comprising white grape pomace and a dispersant, wherein the dispersant:pomace ratio (by mass) is between 0.5:1 and 1:10, preferably between 0.5:1 and 1:7, more preferably between 0.5:1 and 1:5, and even more preferably between 0.8:1 and 1:5. If a dispersant is included, the preparation of the mixture in step (a), comprising white grape residue and a dispersant, can be carried out using a mortar (glass, porcelain, agate), a blade disruptor, grinding equipment, a crusher, a rotary drum, or any other device that allows the mixture to be mechanically crushed and homogenized. In one particular embodiment, step (a) takes place within a temperature range of 10°C to 40°C. In another particular embodiment, step (a) takes place at atmospheric pressure. These embodiments prevent the risk of degradation of the compounds to be extracted. In one particular embodiment, the dispersant and the pomace are mixed at a temperature of 10 to 40°C and / or at a pressure of 0.8–1.2 atm. In one particular embodiment, the solvent in step (b) is in a proportion of 0.2 to 10 volumes of solvent relative to the weight of the mixture comprising white grape pomace and, if present, the dispersant, preferably between 0.2 and 6. In one particular embodiment, step (b) includes keeping the solvent in contact with the mixture for between 1 and 72 hours, preferably between 24 and 72 hours, more preferably between 48 and 72 hours. In another particular embodiment, this step is carried out at a temperature between 10°C and 40°C. In another particular embodiment, the extraction solvent comprising propylene glycol and / or acetone further comprises a solvent selected from the group consisting of water, alkyl alcohol, glycols, or mixtures thereof, preferably solvents having a boiling point not exceeding 80°C. In the present invention, “alkyl alcohol” refers to a substance with a linear or branched hydrocarbon chain containing a hydroxyl group, of between 1 and 12 carbon atoms,preferably having between 1 and 6 carbon atoms. In a particular embodiment, the alkyl alcohol is selected from methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and mixtures thereof. In the present invention, “glycols” refers to a substance with a linear or branched hydrocarbon chain containing two or more hydroxyl groups, having between 2 and 12 carbon atoms, preferably between 2 and 8 carbon atoms, and optionally containing one or more ether groups. In one particular embodiment, the glycol is selected from 1,2-ethanediol (ethylene glycol), propane-1,2-diol (propylene glycol), butane-1,4-diol (1,4-butylene glycol), butane-1,3-diol, 1,5-pentanediol (pentylene glycol), 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol (hexylene glycol), 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethanol (diethylene glycol monoethyl ether), 2,2'-dihydroxydipropyl ether (dipropylene glycol), and 1,2-octanediol (caprylyl glycol). In a preferred embodiment, the solvent in step (b) also comprises water. In one particular embodiment,The solvent in step (b) comprises acetone. Preferably, acetone and water. In another particular embodiment, the solvent in step (b) comprises propylene glycol. Preferably, propylene glycol and water. In one particular embodiment, the extraction solvent either comprises propylene glycol or acetone. In a preferred embodiment, if the solvent comprises propylene glycol, then it does not comprise acetone. In another preferred embodiment, compatible with the foregoing, if the solvent comprises acetone, then it does not comprise propylene glycol. In one particular embodiment, the solvent in step (b) may have a modified pH of between 0.5 and 3. Thus, in one particular embodiment, the solvent in step (b) further comprises an organic or inorganic acid, preferably an acid selected from the group consisting of hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, phosphoric acid, formic acid, and mixtures thereof. In another particular embodiment,The eluates collected in step (c) are used to repeat the elution of the extract. Recirculating the eluates collected in step (c) reduces the total volume of solvent used in the process. While not a necessary feature for the proper functioning of the invention, an additional advantage associated with recirculating the eluates is the potential increase in the amount of total polyphenols extracted from the white grape pomace. Thus, in a particular embodiment, step (c) comprises, in addition to collecting the eluates, recirculating said eluates through the mixture comprising the white grape pomace, repeating the elution with the solvent between 1 and 7 times, preferably 3, 4, or 5 times. In other words, in a particular embodiment, the process of the invention is characterized in that, after collecting the white grape extract, step (c) further comprises recirculating the eluate obtained.by the mixture of step (a). This embodiment corresponds to the repetition of the method of step (b), but wherein the mixture of step (a) comprises grape pomace previously subjected at least once to solvent elution, and using a solvent that has already been used at least once in the elution. This embodiment is repeated such that the solvent is recirculated through the mixture. The combination of the maceration and eluate recirculation steps allows for an optimized procedure in terms of the yield of the extract obtained and low solvent consumption. Step (d) is an optional solvent removal step, preferably of the organic solvent. In a particular embodiment of the process of the invention, step (d) is not carried out, or is carried out to remove a portion of the organic solvent, such that the extract is obtained with an amount of organic solvent of no more than 60%.no more than 50% organic solvent, preferably no more than 40% organic solvent. In a preferred embodiment of the foregoing, the organic solvent is propylene glycol. In a particular embodiment, if acetone is used as the organic solvent in step (b), then the extraction process comprises step (d), characterized by being an acetone removal step. The solvent removal in step (d) may be partial or complete. In this step, the white grape pomace extract obtained after the elution(s) is subjected to a concentration step, i.e., a process for reducing the amount of solvent. In a particular embodiment, step (d) comprises solvent removal to a final amount of no more than 20% organic solvent, no more than 10% organic solvent, no more than 5% organic solvent, preferably no more than 1% organic solvent.and even more preferably not more than 0.5% organic solvent. In a preferred embodiment, step (d) is an organic solvent evaporation step, preferably a complete organic solvent evaporation step, such that the organic solvent is totally or essentially totally removed. In the context of the present invention, organic solvent evaporation is synonymous with organic solvent volatilization, preferably acetone. In a further preferred embodiment, in step (d) the organic solvent is totally or essentially totally evaporated, thereby obtaining an aqueous extract as a product. The process for removing the organic solvent is known to those skilled in the art, for example, by simply leaving the extract at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure, under a stream of nitrogen, with added heat, under vacuum, in a vacuum rotary evaporator, in a thin-film evaporator,Among others. Extracts can also be obtained as a solid product. Thus, in another particular embodiment, the extraction process further comprises a freeze-drying step or a spray-drying step. This step may be an additional step after step (c). Alternatively, it may be an additional step after step (d), i.e., freeze-drying or spray-drying requires the removal of the organic solvent as a prior step, or it may be step (d) itself, in which case the spray-drying directly removes the organic solvent. In a preferred embodiment of the above, when the process comprises a freeze-drying step, this step is carried out after step (d), i.e.,Freeze-drying requires the removal of organic solvent as a preliminary step. In freeze-drying, it is possible to pre-freeze the collected eluates or to freeze the eluates after solvent evaporation. In one particular embodiment, freeze-drying is carried out between -50 °C and -20 °C, preferably between -45 °C and -35 °C. In one particular embodiment, freeze-drying is carried out between 1.31 × 10, -6 atm and 6.6 × 10 -6 atm (0.001 to 0.005 mmHg), preferably between 1.31 × 10 -6 atm and 1.31 × 10 -5atm (0.001 to 0.01 mmHg). The extract is stable, and the addition of stabilizers is not necessary during the freeze-drying stage. However, small amounts of sugars at a concentration ranging from 1% to 5% or other molecules acting as cryoprotectants and / or freeze-dryers may be added. In one particular embodiment, the sugars are selected from the group consisting of glucose, sucrose, trehalose, maltodextrin, gum arabic, and xanthan gum. The extract of the invention remains unchanged after freeze-drying. In spray drying, the collected eluates, or the eluates after solvent evaporation, are transformed into a dry powder by rapid drying with hot air or an inert gas. This method yields materials with a fine and consistent particle size. In one particular embodiment, spray drying is carried out with an air flow between 15000 and 60000 L / h.In another particular embodiment, spray drying is carried out with a feed flow rate of between 1 L / h and 500 L / h, preferably between 1 L / h and 100 L / h, more preferably between 1 L / h and 20 L / h. In another particular embodiment, spray drying is carried out with an air pressure of between 2 and 10 bar. In another particular embodiment, spray drying is carried out at a drying temperature of between 150 and 200 °C and an inlet temperature of between 15 and 35 °C. In one particular embodiment, solvent removal comprises recovering the solvent for subsequent reuse in step (b), extraction.

In a further preferred embodiment, the acetone is completely evaporated, and the grape extract obtainable according to the process of the invention is an aqueous extract. In another particular embodiment, the extract is obtained by using propylene glycol as an extraction solvent.

The term "therapeutically effective amount" means the amount of composition which, when administered, delivers a quantity of one or more pharmaceutically active agents contained therein to provide a therapeutic benefit in the treatment or management of a disease or condition. Treatment of mastitis is the cure or improvement of an animal with contracted mastitis, i.e., the reduction of at least one symptom of mastitis. Mastitis refers to inflammation of the mammary gland. It is characterized by physical, chemical, and usually bacteriological changes in the milk and pathological changes in the glandular tissue.Glandular changes often result in a range of symptoms, such as milk discoloration, the presence of clots, and high white blood cell counts. Clinically, mastitis presents as swelling, heat, pain, and induration of the mammary gland, often leading to udder deformity. An inflamed udder can be visibly observed or detected by palpation. In many cases, the diagnosis of subclinical infections has come to rely heavily on indirect tests based on the milk's white blood cell content (flakes, clots, or serous milk), the detection of at least one bacterium in at least 100 µL of milk from the udder, an elevated somatic cell count (SCC), usually greater than 300,000 cells / mL, and / or increased electrical conductivity of the milk.In one particular embodiment, mastitis treatment is considered to occur when the elevated somatic cell count (SCC) is less than 300,000 cells / mL, preferably less than 200,000 cells / mL, and more preferably less than 100,000 cells / mL. The injectable mastitis composition of the present invention can be used as a therapeutic agent to improve mastitis to a normal state and / or as a preventive agent to suppress the occurrence of mastitis. In the present invention, "mastitis" includes both clinical and subclinical mastitis. Clinical mastitis has macroscopic abnormalities such as red swelling, fever, pain, or clumps in the milk, while subclinical mastitis can occur in the mammary gland without such abnormalities. Examples of bacteria that cause mastitis are Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp., Salmonella spp., Citrobacter spp., Serratia spp., Shigella spp., Edwardsiella spp., Hafnia spp., Morganella spp.Providencia spp., Yersinia spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Streptococcus uberis (S. uberis), Streptococcus agalactiae, Streptococcus dysgalactiae, Streptococcus spp., Enterococci, Corynebacterium spp., Arcanobacterium spp., Actinomyces spp., Mycobacterium spp., Prototheca spp., Mycoplasma spp., and Erwinia spp. In one particular embodiment, the injectable composition is an antibacterial composition against Gram-positive bacteria. A person skilled in the art will be able to determine the optimal time of administration. For example, the composition of the invention can be administered during lactation, and since the extract can be allowed to act on the breast for an extended period, it can also be administered during periods when milking is not taking place. The frequency of administration can also be determined according to the needs of each individual case.In one particular embodiment, the composition is administered at least once a day (daily), at least once every two days, or at least once a week. In one particular embodiment, the administered dose of the veterinary pharmaceutical composition of the invention is between 0.002 mL and 0.030 mL of the pharmaceutical composition per kg of animal weight. Preferably, the dose is between 0.006 mL and 0.019 mL, more preferably between 0.008 mL and 0.016 mL, and even more preferably between 0.009 mL and 0.014 mL per kg of animal weight. In another particular embodiment, the administered dose of the veterinary pharmaceutical composition of the invention comprises between 0.0004 g and 0.0288 g of the grape extract (dry weight) per kg of animal weight. Preferably, the dose is 0.0011 to 0.0182 g, more preferably 0.0016 to 0.0154 g, even more preferably 0.0018 to 0.0134 g per kg of animal weight.In the field of mastitis treatment in animals, several routes of administration have been employed, each with its own advantages and considerations. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is formulated as an injectable composition for intramammary injection. In the context of the present invention, “intramammary injection” includes “udder infusion.” Udder infusion involves the direct injection of drugs into the affected region of the udder through the teat. The primary objective is to achieve localized administration and precision therapy. The efficacy of udder infusion lies in its ability to deliver treatment directly to the site of infection, minimizing systemic exposure.

Experimental Part. These examples serve to illustrate embodiments of the invention, but in no case should they be considered limiting. Analysis of the extracts. The extracts selected as active ingredients for the intramammary veterinary compositions of the invention were obtained in two ways. On the one hand, a solvent mixture consisting of an isovolumetric mixture of propylene glycol and water (50 / 50) was used. On the other hand, acetone was used as a solvent, and the resulting liquid extract was subjected to an acetone volatilization process to obtain an aqueous extract. Using sand as a dispersant, it was mixed and ground with Albariño white grape pomace in a 1:5 ratio. This mixture was introduced into a stainless steel column of appropriate dimensions with a layer of dispersant at the bottom, which acts as a filter, and was lightly compacted.The amount of solvent used as the extraction solvent was 0.75 volumes relative to the volume of the extractive mixture when acetone was used, and 0.625 volumes when the isovolumetric mixture of propylene glycol and water was used. After 48 h of maceration, the corresponding eluate was obtained. Subsequently, when the extraction solvent was acetone, this eluate was concentrated under vacuum until a residual acetone value of less than 0.5% was reached. Example 2. Analytical Characterization Total Polyphenol Index (TPI) The total polyphenol content of several white grape pomace extracts obtained according to the method described in Example 1 was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu method following the protocol for microtiteration in 96-well plates adapted from Zhang et al. (Zhang Q, Zhang J, Shen J, Silva A, Dennis DA, Barrow CJ. A simple 96-well microplate method for estimation of total polyphenol content in seaweeds. J Appl Phycol.(2006) 18:445–50). Thus, 20 µL of diluted extract were mixed with 100 µL of Folin-C1ocalteu reagent (1:10) and 80 µL of a sodium carbonate solution (7.5% w / w). The mixture was stirred in the dark for 30 minutes and then measured at 760 nm using a SPECTROstar Nano microplate reader (BMG LABTECH, Ortenberg, Germany), which performs absorbance measurements in the 220–1000 nm wavelength range. Measurements were performed on 96-well polypropylene microplates with a volume of 300 µL. Gallic acid was used as a standard to express the total polyphenol index, with a concentration range of 12 levels between 30 and 200 mg / L (0.2–0.8 AU). The total polyphenol content of the samples is thus expressed as milligrams of gallic acid equivalents per liter of extract (mgGAE / L).For the extracts obtained using acetone as a solvent, the analysis was performed, and the IPT range obtained was between 7000 and 10000 mgGAE / L for the non-volatilized extracts (12 samples, average of 8699 mgGAE / L), and between 11000 and 43000 mgGAE / L for the volatilized extracts (33 samples, average of 27866 mgGAE / L). For the non-volatilized extracts obtained using a propylene glycol:water (50:50) mixture as a solvent, the analysis was performed, and the IPT range obtained was between 1000 and 8500 mgGAE / L (15 samples, average of 6287 mgGAE / L). Identification of target polyphenols by Liquid Chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS)The extracts obtained according to Example 1 were filtered through 0.22 µm PTFE syringe filters onto a 2 mL glass vial for the corresponding analyses.The main polyphenols present in the extracts of Example 1 were identified by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry, triple quadrupole (LC-MS / MS_QqQ). The optimal instrumental conditions for the detection of the target polyphenols were adapted from Celeiro, M.; Lamas, JP; Arcas, R.; Lores, M. Antioxidants Profiling of By-Products from Eucalyptus Greenboards Manufacture, Antioxidants.2019, 8(8), 263. The LC-MS / MS analysis was performed using a Thermo Scientific instrument (San Jose, CA, USA) based on a TSQ Quantum UltraTM triple quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with a HESI-II (heated electrospray ionization) source and an Accela Open autosampler with a 20 μL loop. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Kinetex C18 column (2.6 μm, 100 × 2.1 mm) with a pre-column (SecurityGuardTM ULTRA Holder) obtained from Phenomenex (Torrance, CA, USA).The injection volume was 10 μL and the column temperature was set at 50 °C. The mobile phase consisted of water (A) and methanol (B), both containing 0.1% formic acid. The chromatographic gradient was from 5% B to 90% B in 11 min and was held constant for 3 min. Initial conditions were reached in 6 min. The mobile phase flow rate was 200 μL / min. -1The total run time for each injection was 20 min. The mass spectrometer and the HESI-II source operated simultaneously in positive and negative modes (see the ionization mode for each target compound in Table 1). Selected Reaction Monitoring (SRM) acquisition mode was implemented, monitoring 2 or 3 transitions per compound (see Table 1) for unambiguous identification of the target compounds. The system was managed using the Xcalibur 2.2 and Trace Finder™ 3.2 software programs. Table 1. Compounds studied by chromatography.

In vitro antimicrobial assays have been performed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the polyphenolic extracts of the invention. Methodology: The antimicrobial tests were performed according to EUCAST recommendations, using the Alamar-Blue colorimetric / fluorometric method and reading the plates by fluorometry. The methodology involves incubating the cells in Müller-Hinton broth supplemented with different concentrations (ranging from 0.625 to 20%) of the antimicrobial substance to be evaluated and the appropriate amount of resazurin. This non-fluorescent molecule is converted to the fluorescent molecule resorufin in the presence of metabolically active cells. This reaction allows the number of live cells to be quantified by measuring the fluorescence released by the resorufin produced during the process.This protocol provides Minimum Bactericidal Concentrations (MBC) values, so the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) is calculated as the average between the MBC and the immediately preceding concentration tested. IC50 values (the extract concentration that inhibits the growth of half an inoculum of the tested bacteria) were obtained using the IC50 calculator program (AAT Bioquest). The microorganisms tested included Gram-positive bacterial strains, with Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 as the reference strain and Streptococcus uberis ATCC19436 as the main target microorganism, since mastitis is caused, among other things, by this bacterium, which invades mammary tissue causing inflammation of the mammary gland. Results: The results of the antimicrobial effect of the extracts, evaluated in triplicate assays, are shown in Table 3.Table 3 shows the antimicrobial activity of comparative extracts obtained with ethyl lactate and ethanol. Table 3. Antimicrobial activity of the different extracts against S. aureus and S. uberis strains. IC50 is the extract concentration responsible for 50% bacterial inhibition. IC50 (%) is the percentage dilution of the extract responsible for 50% bacterial inhibition. MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) is the lowest extract concentration that inhibits bacterial growth after incubation. MIC (%) is the percentage dilution of the lowest extract that inhibits bacterial growth after incubation. S. aureus (Gram +) extractuberis (Gram +) IC50 (%) MIC (%) IC50 (%) MIC (%) Propylene glycol / water 1.79 < 5 7.5 < 10 Acetone 0.33 < 0.625 1.88 < 2.5 Ethyl lactate / water 0.9 1.03 2.65 3.75 Ethanol / water 1.07 >20 -- --The propylene glycol / water and acetone extracts have the capacity to inhibit microbial growth (MIC). The solvents are compatible with the route of administration. In addition, the acetone extract possesses surprising antimicrobial activity. In the case of the comparative extract obtained with ethyl lactate, using almost 50% ethyl lactate for intramammary administration would cause irritation and inflammation in the mammary gland. The lethal dose 50 (LD50) of ethyl lactate administered parenterally (subcutaneously) is 2.5 g / kg, while for propylene glycol it is 17.37 g / kg. Example 4. Preparation of intramammary formulations. Paraffin oil-in-water emulsion loaded with propylene glycol:water extract.A paraffin oil-in-water (O / W) emulsion was developed using paraffin oil as the oil phase and a 1:1 propylene glycol:water (PG:W) extract as the aqueous phase in a 1:0.3 ratio. Tween 80 at 2.5% (v / v) was used as the surfactant. The formulation components and proportions were selected according to the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB). To prepare 10 mL of the formulation, 2.25 mL of PG:W extract, 7.5 mL of paraffin oil, and 0.25 mL of Tween 80 were used. Both phases (and the surfactant) were mixed using a high-shear homogenizer (Ultra-Turrax, IKA) at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes. The physicochemical properties of the formulation were characterized to evaluate its stability and performance. The rheological behavior of the formulations, along with pH, emulsion sign, globule size, and miscibility with milk, were evaluated and are described in Table 4.The pH was evaluated using a Hanna Instruments pH meter equipped with a probe for viscous samples (HI1053B). The syringeability of the formulation at room temperature was evaluated using a TA XT Plus Texture Analyzer (Surrey, UK), calculating the work required to expel the loaded formulation into intramammary cannulas. In short, the cannulas were loaded with the formulation, avoiding the formation of air bubbles. They were then placed vertically on a stand, and the texture analyzer plunger was lowered at 2 mm / s, pressing the cannula piston to a distance of 2 cm. All measurements were performed six times. Viscosity was evaluated using an AR1000-N rheometer (TA Instruments, UK). A 6 cm Ø, 2.1° cone-plate geometry was used to record the storage (G') and loss (G'') moduli at an angular frequency of 5 rad / s.The emulsion sign was identified using a Neubauer chamber by staining the oil phase with Sudan III. Globule size and size dispersion were assessed according to the USP method using dynamic light scattering with a Zetasizer Pro (Malvern Instruments, Malvern, UK). Samples were diluted with Milli-Q® water (1:1000), placed in a dedicated cell (DTS 1070), and measured using an automated measurement process. All measurements were performed in triplicate. Miscibility with milk was assessed by observing any phase separation after dilution of the formulations with milk. Sterile formulations were further prepared using two strategies: 1) using sterile formulation components and formulating the systems aseptically in a laminar flow hood, or 2) sterilizing the formulations using a terminal sterilization strategy with gamma radiation at 25 kGy.In both cases, the extract was basified using 10M NaOH until a pH of approximately 7 was reached. For the aseptic formulation, the extract was filtered through a 0.22 µm filter to sterilize it in the same way as the surfactant solution, while the paraffin oil was sterilized by dry heat. The high-shear homogenizer used for mixing was also previously sterilized using ethanol. Table 4 shows the results of the non-sterile formulations and those prepared using both sterilization strategies. Table 4.

The flow properties of the formulations were analyzed in comparison with two commercial intramammary formulations approved for the treatment of bovine mastitis, commercial formulation 1 (Ilovet-clox®, whose composition per syringe comprises 250 mg of neomycin sulfate and 500 mg of cloxacillin benzathine) and commercial formulation 2 (Mammicurine 800®, for intramammary injection, comprising 0.25 mL Calendula officinalis, 0.25 mL Solanum lycopersicum, 0.04 mL Echinacea, 0.25 mL Phytolacca americana, and 0.10 mL Solidago virgaurea L), using an AR1000-N controlled stress rheometer (TA Instruments,United Kingdom). A frequency sweep between 0.05 and 50 rad / s and an oscillatory stress of 0.1 Pa were used with a cone-plate geometry of 6 cm Ø and 2.1°. The [Error! Reference source not found.] shows similar behavior between the developed and commercially available formulations. The flow properties were very similar to those obtained for the commercial formulations, showing a behavior in which increasing the shear force decreases the viscosity, facilitating the administration of the formulation. The non-sterilized formulations were characterized again at later times (after 1,3 and 6 months) to evaluate their stability. Table 5 shows the results obtained for the non-sterile formulations at different times after storage at 4°C. The formulations were stable for at least six months. Table 5.

In this case, two surfactants were required: an aqueous surfactant and an oily surfactant.The final components were Tween 80 (4.60% v / v) and Span 65 (15.80% v / v). Peanut oil was the oil phase component, and propylene glycol:water (PG:W) extract was the aqueous phase in a 1:0.3 ratio. To prepare 10 mL of the formulation, 1.84 mL of PG:W extract, 6.12 mL of peanut oil, 0.46 mL of Tween 80, and 1.58 mL of Span 65 were used. Both phases were mixed using a high-shear homogenizer (Ultra-Turrax, IKA) at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes in an ice bath. The formulation properties were characterized as previously described for the paraffin oil emulsion. Table 6 shows the experimental data obtained. Table 6.

For the preparation of 10 mL of formulation, 9.6 mL of PG:W extract and 0.4 g of Carbopol 974. The polymer dispersion was obtained by adding the polymer to the extract followed by homogenization using a Silverson L4R. The formulation was fully characterized as described for the previous examples, and the experimental data obtained are shown in Table 7. Sterile formulations were also prepared using two strategies: 1) using the components of the sterile formulations and formulating the systems aseptically using a laminar flow hood, or 2) sterilizing the formulations using a terminal sterilization strategy with gamma radiation at 25 kGy. In this case, the polymer dispersions were basified using 10 M NaOH prior to radiation. For the aseptic formulation, the extract was filtered through a 0.22 µm filter for sterilization.The polymer was sterilized by UV radiation in the laminar flow hood.

A paraffin oil in water (O / W) emulsion was developed using paraffin oil as the oil phase and acetone extract (AC), after solvent evaporation, as the aqueous phase in a ratio of 1:0.3. Evaporation of the acetone after extraction resulted in an aqueous dispersion.The extract was basified using 10M NaOH to reach a pH of approximately 7. It was filtered through a 0.22 µm filter for sterilization, as was the surfactant solution, while the paraffin oil was sterilized by dry heat. Tween 80 at 2.5% (v / v) was used as the surfactant for emulsification, and the formulation components were selected according to the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB). To prepare 10 mL of formulation, 2.25 mL of AC extract, 7.5 mL of paraffin oil, and 0.25 mL of Tween 80 were used.
