Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for coating of a pharmaceutical product. The method comprises the step of producing discrete droplets (7) of controlled size, shape and composition with at least one micro dispenser (1) and distributing droplets (7) with controlled velocity, time of flight. Also, the method comprises the step of controlling the production frequency and modulation of the droplets (7). Further, the method comprises the step of controlling the flow rate, temperature and composition of the carrier gas and directing droplets (7) towards particles (10) subjected to coating. The present invention also relates to a device for coating of a pharmaceutical product. The device comprises a droplet producing unit (1) and a droplet-directing unit (8). The droplet producing unit (1) is a piezo-actuated micro dispenser (1) for producing discrete droplets (7) and controlling the size, shape and composition of said droplets (7).

Abstract: A method for preparing a soluble protein comprising urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) or an active fragment thereof, or a variant of either of these which has uPA activity, which method comprises contacting said protein with a buffer at a pH of from 8.5-10.5, said buffer comprising a reducing agent and an oxidising agent which forms a redox pair, wherein the reducing agent is present in excess compared to the oxidising agent, and wherein the reducing agent is present in a concentration of at least 5 mM. Material obtainable in this way forms a further aspect of the invention. It has been refolded in a “native-like” form and is useful in studies such as N.M.R. analysis to detect ligands.
