Abstract: The invention concerns a method for producing solid galenic formulations which consists in: forming a processable paste comprising a) 50 to 99.4 wt. % of at least one non-thermoplastic carrier, b) 0.5 to 30 wt. % of at least an adjuvant selected among thermoplastic polymers, lipids, sugar alcohols and solubilizing agents, c) 0.1 to 49.5 wt. % of at least one active principle, at a temperature not less than the softening temperature of the adjuvant but rising to at least 70° C.; then in cooling the resulting paste. Said solid galenic formulations quickly disintegrate in an aqueous medium.

Abstract: A method is described for the production of dosage forms, which comprise a solid dispersion of a microcrystalline active substance, in which a thermoplastic polymer with a glass transition temperature Tg of at least 40° C. is melted and an active substance is dissolved homogeneously in the melt; crystallization of the active substance is initiated in the mass obtained; and the mass is cooled. Crystallization of the active substance can be initiated by adding a nonsolvent, seed crystals of the active substance or a derivatization reagent. In addition, crystallization can be initiated by holding the mass for a sufficient length of time at a temperature that is below the temperature at which the active substance is completely soluble in the mass.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to peptides from the sequence of hPTH(1-37), which contain .alpha.-helical amino acid sequence regions and/or non-structured amino acid sequence regions, said peptides being capable of inducing antibodies when injected into animals. Furthermore, the invention is directed to a diagnostic agent and antibodies obtainable by immunizing animals using the peptides according to the invention.
