Solution Overview

Problem

Existing phytotherapeutic preparations for enhancing libido and spermatogenesis in males have limitations in effectiveness and user acceptance due to taste and odor issues, leading to irregular intake and decreased performance.

Innovation Solution

A phytotherapeutic preparation combining extracts from Taraxacum officinale, Geraniaceae, and Lamiaceae plants, specifically G. Robertianum, Satureja hortensis, Thymus, Mentha, and Melissa officinalis, using cold extraction methods to maintain efficacy and enhance libido and spermatogenesis, with a pleasant odor and taste.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional phytotherapeutic preparations are used, then stimulatory effect on libido and spermatogenesis is achieved, but taste and odor are unpleasant leading to irregular intake

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetherapeutic effectVSAvoiduser compliance
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the chemical parameters of the preparation by adding specific plant extracts (Taraxacum officinale, Melissa officinalis) that modify the taste and odor profile while maintaining the therapeutic active ingredients from Geraniaceae and Lamiaceae families, thus improving user compliance without sacrificing therapeutic effect

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a composite phytotherapeutic preparation by combining multiple plant extracts with complementary properties: Geraniaceae and Lamiaceae for therapeutic effect on libido and spermatogenesis, plus Asteraceae and Lamiaceae species for sensory improvement, achieving both therapeutic reliability and user compliance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Reliability

If cold extraction method is used, then active ingredients are preserved, but extraction efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveactive ingredient preservationVSAvoidextraction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses cold extraction (macération à froid) which changes the temperature parameter from conventional heated extraction to ambient temperature, preserving heat-sensitive active ingredients in Geraniaceae and Lamiaceae plants while accepting lower extraction efficiency as a trade-off for maintaining ingredient integrity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs an intermediary solvent system (alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic solution) that facilitates extraction at low temperatures, acting as a mediator between the plant matrix and the active ingredients, enabling preservation of thermolabile compounds while still achieving sufficient extraction of therapeutic constituents

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
