Abstract: The invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp having a discharge vessel (10) with a ceramic wall (1) which is closed at one end by a plug. The plug (2) is provided with an electrode (3) arranged in the discharge vessel (10). The ceramic wall (1) and the plug (2) are jointed by a fusion joint (4). The fusion joint (4) comprises an alloy comprising substantially molybdenum and aluminum. Preferably, the fusion joint (4) comprises a material selected from the group formed by Al8Mo3, Al63Mo37, Al3Mo37, AlMo, AlMo3 and combinations of said materials. Preferably, the plug (2) comprises a material selected from the group formed by molybdenum, 1 tungsten and combinations of said materials. Preferably, the ceramic wall (1) comprises aluminum nitride. According to the invention, the plug (2) has a high corrosion resistance.

Abstract: The use of CCH-A subunit isolated from hemocyanin of the marine gastropod Concholepas concholepas (CCH), or a combination thereof, as an immunostimulant agent in the innate or adaptive immune response of vertebrates or as an immunotherapeutic agent in cancer of either humans or animals, where the CCH-A subunit has a molecular weight of about 404 kDa, is stable in the absence of Ca+2 and Mg+2 and is at least 95% pure.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing a discharge lamp provided with a discharge vessel enclosing a discharge space. The discharge vessel is provided with a ceramic wall which is formed through sintering of a body shaped by sludge molding. The sludge molding process comprises the steps of: injecting an outer porous mold with sludge, precipitating the sludge against the outer mold, and removing the excess sludge, removing the outer mold, and pre-firing of the molded body. According to the invention, the sludge is injected into the outer mold by means of a hollow needle which extends to inside the hollow mold.
