Abstract: Pharmaceutical composition comprising growth-hormone releasing peptide 6 (GHRP-6), tartrate buffer at pH 5.0-6.0, and trehalose as stabilizing agent, as well as the use of said composition for the manufacture of a medicament. The invention also provides a kit of parts comprising said pharmaceutical composition and a method of treatment of an individual in need thereof, which entails the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition comprising of GHRP-6, tartrate buffer at pH 5.0-6.0 and trehalose.

Abstract: A MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) getter microdevice for controlling the ambient pressure inside the hermetic packages that enclose various types of MEMS, photonic, or optoelectronic devices. The getter microdevice revolves around a platform suspended at a height above a substrate, and which is supported by supporting legs having low thermal conductance. Layers are deposited on the platform, such layers including a properly patterned resistor element, a heat-spreading layer and, finally, a thin-film getter material. When an electrical current flows through it, the resistor element heats the thin-film getter material until it reaches its activation temperature. The getter material then absorbs the gas species that could be present in the hermetic package, such gas species possibly impairing the operation of the devices housed in the packages while reducing their lifetime.
