Abstract: The present invention relates to novel coatings which are applied from an aqueous phase to substrates such as plastics, and which are overlaid with other coatings. These coatings are characterized by particularly good adhesive strength, in particular on plastics, and are thus particularly commercial.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a silibinin component for the production of a medicament that is adapted for parenteral administration for the treatment of viral hepatitis, preferably of hepatitis B or C, in particular for the reduction of the virus load.
