摘要:
A pharmaceutical formulation comprising at least one omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid in free acid form or a pharmacologically acceptable derivative thereof is contained in a soft gelatin capsule characterised in that the capsule comprises gelatin extracted by an extraction process comprising acid pre-treatment of a collagen source. One advantage of the present invention over a soft gelatin capsule containing the same formulation but comprising gelatin extracted by an extraction process comprising alkali pre-treatment of the collagen source is that the present invention does not harden significantly over time and thus has a longer shelf life.
摘要:
Dehydrated protein materials are treated with gaseous HCl without temperature control, the reaction temperature being susceptible to reach, momentarily, 150.degree. C. Then the material thus treated is degassed and, after drying, a non hygroscopic powder usable in the food industry or in the pharmaceutical industry is obtained.
摘要:
A method for delignifying ligno-cellulosic materials and efficiently separate from each other the constituents thereof. Said materials are heated in an aqueous acid medium in the presence of phenol compounds. Then the reaction medium is drained and washed for isolating the purified solid cellulose pulp, the liquid phase separating into two layers: an aqueous layer rich with pentoses and an organic layer rich with phenols and lignin, the latter providing, by distillation and pyrolysis of the residue, a quantity of phenols at least equal to that of the phenols used in the delignification stage.
摘要:
Continuous hydrolysis to produce sugars is effected by cyclically immersing a solid, divided lignocellulosic material in a bath of concentrated hydrochloric acid and draining the material between successive immersions so as to dissolve the produced sugars, until the sugar concentration of the acid in the bath has attained a desired value.The solid material and the liquid acid are delivered to a tubular horizontal rotary reactor arranged to provide a bath of the acid, to produce a rotating movement for cyclical immersion of the solid material in the bath of acid and longitudinally displace the solid material undergoing hydrolysis together with the acid of the bath and to continuously discharge solid residue and acid containing dissolved sugars due to overflow by gravity at an outlet end of the reactor.
摘要:
Polyunsaturated fatty acid (“PUFA”) or a pharmacologically acceptable salt or derivative thereof (such as EPA and/or DHA) is used in combination with at least one of an immunosuppressive agent or an antineoplastic agent or a pharmacologically acceptable salt or derivative thereof in the treatment of conditions involving acutely or chronically inadequate immune response by topical application of said active agents to at least a portion of the intestinal mucosa. Specific conditions that may be treated include chronic inflammatory disease (e.g. Chrohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) and tumour disease (e.g. bowel cancer and prostate cancer). One advantage of preferred embodiments of the invention is that bioavailability of immunosuppressive or antineoplastic agents is increased.
摘要:
A thermoplastic polymer composition comprising:(a) a destructurized starch, and either(b) an effective amount of at least one compound selected from the following: (1) a polymer which contains at least two different types of functional groups, one of said types of these groups being hydroxyl groups; (2) at least one polymer which does not contain hydroxyl groups and is selected from the group consisting of polymers which contain at least two types of functional groups bound to the same molecule one type of these groups being carboxylate groups; (3) at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of polymers which contain tertiary amino groups and/or salts thereof and/or quaternary ammonium groups; (4) at least one polymer selected from the group of polysaccharides which have been chemically modified to contain added hydroxyalkyl groups and/or contain alkyl ether groups, and/or contain ester groups; (5) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of copolymers of vinyl pyrrolidone; (6) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of cationically modified polysaccharides; (7) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of anionically modified polysaccharides; (8) at least one polymer selected from the group of copolymers containing vinyl alcohol units together with aliphatic chain units as are obtained by copolymerization of vinyl esters, preferably vinyl acetate, with unsaturated monomers containing no functional group with subsequent hydrolysis of the vinyl ester group; (9) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of polysaccharide graft copolymers and graft copolymers of polysaccharide derivatives; (10) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of polyalkyleneimine polymers and polyalkyleneimine copolymers; (11) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of styrene sulfonic acid polymers, styrene sulfonic acid copolymers, and salts thereof; and (12) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of polymers and copolymers which contain carboxylic groups which partially or wholly are present in the form of their salts and wherein said polymers or copolymers do not contain further functional groups; or(c) At least one substantially water-insoluble thermoplastic polymer. combinations of (a), (b) and (c) are also disclosed.
摘要:
Feedstuff for livestock containing essentially carbohydrates (starches and cellulose based products) and glucosylurea of more than 90% purity. The glucosylurea is obtained by the condensation under acidic conditions of urea and glucose and the addition of 30-50% water which results, after final concentration and cooling, in the crystallization of pale yellow glucosylurea.
摘要:
A photosensitive material is provided in which at least one surface portion of a substrate contains di-iodopropyl cellulose uniformly distributed therethrough. A photosensitive sheet material can be formed totally of di-iodopropyl cellulose or in part by di-iodopropyl cellulose, provided that the surface thereof contains di-iodopropyl cellulose. Upon exposure to electromagnetic radiation, including wave lengths not greater than 0.315 microns, radical iodine is liberated which forms molecular iodine spots to form an image corresponding to the intensity of the irradiation with the electromagnetic radiation. A provision is further made for bringing the surface of the material into contact with a substance which forms a colored compound upon reaction with the iodine.
