Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a combination of ifosfamide and carnitine, in particular L-carnitine, for the production of tumour pharmaceuticals having decreased side effects. The results show clearly that the side effect produced by ifosfamide (damage to the proximal tubule of the kidney) is antagonized in animals by L-carnitine. It was furthermore possible to show that the antitumour action of ifosfamide is not affected in combination with L-carnitine. The combination also caused no new side effects in the animals.

Abstract: The cooking apparatus has at least one cooking area including a glass-ceramic panel providing a cooking surface and at least one glass molded part made from glass with definite mechanical stability, such as technical glass or hardened glass. The glass molded part or parts act as an adapter for the glass-ceramic panel. In a preferred embodiment the glass-ceramic panel is bordered or enclosed by an assembly of the glass molded parts that form the adapter and protect the edges of the glass-ceramic panel. Some of the glass molded parts provide signaling and/or control panels, e.g. for residual heat. The glass molded parts replace prior art molded parts, such as eloxated aluminum and stainless steel parts, that are disadvantageously sensitive to direct mechanical surface loads.

Abstract: There are provided new antitumor salts of oxazaphosphorine derivatives of the formula ##STR1## where R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.3 are the same or different and represent hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, 2-chloroethyl, or 2-methanesulfonyloxyethyl and wherein at least two of these residues are 2-chloroethyl and/or 2-methanesulfonyl-oxyethyl and A is the group --S--alk--SO.sub.3 H or --N(OH)--CONH--alk--CO.sub.2 H and alk represents a C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkylene residue optionally containing a mercapto group, whereby alk also can be --CH.sub.2 -- in case there is a carboxy group attached to the alk group, with homocysteinethiolactone or .alpha.-amino-.epsilon.-caprolactam or a basic compound of the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.4 is a hydroxy group, an amino group or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkoxy group, R.sub.5 is hydrogen or a difluoromethyl group, R.sub.6 is hydrogen, an indolyl-(3)-methyl residue, imidazolyl-(4)-methyl residue, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 -alkyl group or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.
