Abstract: Method for the preparation of esters of a non-reducing sugar like sucrose and one or more fatty acids by transesterification of a non-reducing sugar with one or more fatty acid esters in at first a worm shaft reactor operating at elevated temperature and pressure and then in a second reactor operating at reduced pressure and elevated temperature. Such esters of a non-reducing sugar and fatty acids, in particular the monoesters and diesters are valuable solid surfactants, which are non-toxic, odorless, tasteless, non-irritating to the skin and hydrolyze in the human and animal tract to normal good products.

Abstract: Crosslinked hemoglobin preparations of extended shelf life and high oxygen transport capacity can be made by reducing a hemoglobin solution with an oxygen consuming reducing agent down to an oxygen partial pressure of 0 mbar, then adding an effector, crosslinking with a dialdehyde, reducing with a carbonyl-group-specific reducing agent, circulating through an ultrafilter, and stabilizing the product by adding a reducing agent thereto.
Abstract: A method for purifying recombinant tumor necrosis factor from cultures of microorganisms transformed with vectors that code for the production of tumor necrosis factor is disclosed. A sequence of contacting steps is involved, such that the effluent from the first contacting step can be contacted directly with the contacting material used for the second step and similarly, the effluent from the second contacting step can be contacted directly with the contacting material used for the third contacting step. In a preferred embodiment, tumor necrosis factor-containing fermentation broth can be substantially purified by a single pass through a multi-component chromatography system, i.e., the first, second and third contacting materials are each packed in a column configuration, with TNF-containing broth being passed directly through the sequence of columns.
Abstract: Novel peptide antibiotics designated herein as BU-2867T F and G are produced by fermentation of Polyangium brachysporum strain K481-B101 (ATCCC 53080). The new antibiotics are found to have antifungal activity and to inhibit P388 lymphatic leukemia in rodents.
Abstract: A dentifrice sachet wherein the sachet which envelops the dentifrice is a plastic laminate material having a modified acrylonitrile methyl acrylate copolymer inner surface. The sachet is subject to reduced delamination when in contact with a paste or gel dentifrice.

Abstract: This invention provides injectable semi-solid formulations comprising a pharmaceutically or veterinary active agent, an oil and a suitable glyceride release modifying agent.
Abstract: A dental treating composition and method are disclosed which reduces dental plaque and inhibits future formation of the same, when the dental treating composition is used on regular basis. Sodium alginate is used as a calcium ion chelating agent which weakens the bond between the plaque and the teeth thereby allowing easy removal by subsequent brushing. The use of benzalkonium chloride and zinc sulfate with the composition provides for desensitizing the teeth and elimination of halitosis.
Abstract: Intestine-specific delivery of an opioid antagonist can be accomplished without substantial central nervous system effects by administering the antagonist orally in the form of the glucuronide derivative.

Abstract: Polypeptides are disclosed which inhibit the binding of the C5a chemotaxin to polymorphonuclear leukocytes by cleaving a six amino acid peptide from the carboxy-terminus of the C5a chemotaxin. The polypeptides can be isolated from virulent strains of group A streptococci, s. pyogenes, by enzymatic or detergent extraction.
