Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treatment and/or prophylaxis of a microbial infection, comprising the step of administering an effective amount of a compound of formula (I), in which X and Y are either the same or different and selected from a heteroatom; is a double or single bond depending on the heteroatoms X and Y; R1 to R5 are either the same or different and selected from hydrogen or a non-deleterious substituent; and R6 and R7 are either the same or different and selected from hydrogen and a non-deleterious substituent or one of R6 and R7 are absent when there is a double bond present, pharmaceutically acceptable salts or derivatives, pro-drugs, tautomers and/or isomers thereof. The present invention also relates to a method for protecting a subject from radiation damage, a method of cancer radiotherapy and use as an antimicrobial or radioprotective agent of the compound of formula (I) defined above.

Abstract: The invention relates to influenza virus vaccines, and in particular to a reassortant influenza virus which has at least its hemagglutinin gene derived from a non-pathogenic or low pathogenic influenza virus, and its other genes derived from a donor strain. In one embodiment the influenza virus is a 7:1 reassortant, in which only the hemagglutinin gene is derived from a non-pathogenic influenza virus. The virus is useful for production of vaccines against influenza, including influenza caused by highly pathogenic influenza virus strains.
