  • Patent number: 11607451
    Abstract: The invention herein described, provides, among other things, self-buffering protein formulations. Particularly, the invention provides self-buffering pharmaceutical protein formulations that are suitable for veterinary and human medical use. The self-buffering protein formulations are substantially free of other buffering agents, stably maintain pH for the extended time periods involved in the distribution and storage of pharmaceutical proteins for veterinary and human medical use. The invention further provides methods for designing, making, and using the formulation. In addition to other advantages, the formulations avoid the disadvantages associated with the buffering agents conventionally used in current formulations of proteins for pharmaceutical use.

  • Patent number: 5874075
    Abstract: The invention relates to stable compositions of proteins and related methods wherein a protein capable of transitioning into the molten globular state is contacted with a negatively charged lipid vesicle, thereby stabilizing the protein against thermally-induced aggregation, denaturation, and loss of activity. The protein:phospholipid complex directly stabilizes the secondary and tertiary structure of the protein, and the compositions are useful in high temperature formulations and in novel delivery vehicles.
