Abstract: An in vitro method for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD) includes determining the content of mercaptoalbumin (HMA) in a sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and comparing the content determined with the content of HMA in CSF in healthy subjects. If the HMA content is less than that of the healthy subjects, it is indicative of AD.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the preparation of a solution of immunoglobulins based on an initial solution of immunoglobulins with a purity greater than or equal to 96% in the presence of a polyether or polymer of glycol, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: a) adding caprylic acid or salts of the same to the initial solution; b) adjusting the pH of the solution obtained in step a); c) incubating the solution obtained in step b) for the time and at a temperature necessary for the inactivation of enveloped viruses; d) performing a step of ultrafiltration/diafiltration on the solution obtained in step c).

Abstract: A process for obtaining an IgG composition involves heat treatment. This process obtains an IgG composition from an IgG solution partly purified from human plasma, in which by applying intermediate heat treatment and without using reagents to precipitate high molecular weight aggregates/polymers and/or proteins virtually total elimination of the IgG polymers generated during the process is achieved. Furthermore this process offers high productivity, lower production costs and is easy to implement in comparison with the processes of the know art. In addition to this, by using this process stability is imparted to the final product in liquid.

Abstract: Composition of biocompatible microparticles of alginic acid for the controlled release of active ingredients by intravenous administration. The invention relates to a biocompatible composition which comprises microparticles of alginic acid or its salts and an active ingredient. More particularly, the invention relates to microparticles for the encapsulation of an active ingredient to be administered intravenously to a patient who needs it. These microparticles are of a combination of size sufficient to increase the half-life or survival of the active ingredient in blood, with a low uptake in the liver and a fast cell clearance when administered intravenously.

Abstract: The therapeutic preparation of FVIIa having a purity of at least 1000 IU/mg of protein is characterized in that said preparation is free of proteins of non-human origin. In the method for obtaining FVII, purification starts from FrII+III, FrIII or equivalent of Cohn fractioning and comprises precipitation with PEG, chromatography and its subsequent activation.
