Abstract: The invention relates to a method for making a composition which comprises selecting at least one fatty acid or fatty ester compound having an allylic unsaturation of the type --CH.dbd.CH--CH.sub.2 --CH.dbd.CH-- or --CH.dbd.CH--CH.dbd.CH--CH.sub.2 --, adding to said compound a salt of an element having a rhombohedral crystal structure, such as Bi, Hg, As, B, Sb or Sm, to form a mixture, heating said mixture above about 260.degree. C. for a sufficient period of time to incorporate at least about 0.1% by weight of the element into the compound, cooling the mixture, and recovering the incorporated compound as the remaining fluid of the mixture. The invention also relates to the reaction products thus produced along with methods of administering these compositions to a subject to treat abnormal conditions caused mainly by a catabolic imbalance.

Abstract: Various tung oil or tung oil fatty acid compositions and use thereof for treating at least some symptoms of body defense deficiencies in patients having said symptoms.

Abstract: A method for treating a host for inducing relief of pain or anesthesia which comprises administering hydrolyzed epichlorohydrin, magnesium thiosulfate, or a butanol at the site of the painful area.

Abstract: A process for preparing nucleoproteic material which comprises immersing organic material into a suitable solvent for a sufficient time to extract nucleoproteins from said material, adding a sufficient amount of an acid to form a precipitate of nucleoproteic material, and recovering said nucleoproteic material precipitate. A composition of nucleoproteic material produced according to this process. A method for alleviating symptoms of neoplastic diseases which comprises sterilizing the composition of nucleoproteic material, preparing a formulation comprising an effective amount of said sterilized composition, and administering said formulation to a patient having symptoms of a neoplastic disease.

Abstract: A method for treating a host for inducing relief of pain or anesthesia which comprises administering hydrolyzed epichlorohydrin, magnesium thiosulfate, or a butanol at the site of the painful area.
