Abstract: A process can be used for preparing nano- or microparticles containing a carrier-polymer and a biologically active ingredient. The process is a solvent emulsion process involving an organic phase (OP) and an aqueous phase (AP) to form an emulsion. In the case of an oil-in-water emulsion (O/W), the organic phase (OP) contains the biologically active ingredient dissolved or dispersed therein. Alternatively, in the case of a water-in-oil emulsion (W1/O), the aqueous phase (AP) contains the biologically active ingredient dissolved or dispersed therein. The organic phase (OP) is saturated with the salt-containing aqueous phase (AP) and vice versa.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a gastric retention active delivery system in the form of a coated capsule, which, in contrast to prior art delivery systems exhibiting relatively poor floating-properties, and thus requiring size expansion capability in order to securely delay passage through the pylorus, reliably stay afloat for several hours. This is achieved by combining pore forming components and flexible polymer components in the coating in suitable proportions. The present invention, further, relates to the use of gastric retention active delivery systems of the invention for the delivery of one or more water soluble active components A to a mammal.

Abstract: A process for preparing a powder, which includes one or more human coagulation factor proteins and a lactic acid polymer, involves mixing and dispersing a lactic acid polymer with a particle size d50 in the range 0.1-2 ?m and the one or more human coagulation factor proteins in water. The dispersion is dried, and the resulting dried mass is compressed. The resulting compressed dried mass is comminuted to a powder with a particle size d50 in the range of more than 0.5 and up to 5 ?m.
