  • Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-inducing lipopeptides and use as vaccines
    Patent number: 6015564
    Abstract: Cytotoxic lymphocyte-inducing lipopeptides comprising a peptide part having between 10 and 40 amino acids approximately and comprising at least one tigenic determinant. The lipopeptides also comprise one or more chains derived from fatty acids and one or more modified steroid groups. Said lipopeptides may be used for immunizing the human or animal body against pathogenic agents such as viruses or parasites. The peptide part may, in particular, be a fragment of the protein encoded by the ENV gene, by the NEF gene or by the GAG gene of HIV viruses.
    Type: Grant

  • Container body of the composite type and container comprising said body
    Patent number: 4588621
    Abstract: The invention relates to a composite container body wherein the inner surface, and optionally the outer surface and/or the edges, of said body are covered with a multi-layer complex comprising a metallic film to which is adhered a layer of an adhesive such as at least one copolymer obtained by polymerization of a monoolefin and grafting with a monoethylenic carboxylic acid, optionally in admixture with a second compound selected, for example, from the group consisting of low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyisobutylene, polystyrene, polyesters, copolymers of ethylene and acrylic acid, and paraffins and waxes derived from the refining of crude petroleum.
