  • Publication number: 20180360738
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an anti-infection and anti-tumor mucosal immune preparation. The mucosal immune preparation includes mucosal immune substances that are mainly formed by organically bonding polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, non-antibiotic amino compounds and metal cations through chemical bonds. The present invention provides a slow release effect on a local part or the whole body, prevents the degradation of serum ribonucleases of human beings and primates, prolong the half-life period of the mucosal immune preparation, increases the availability and effectiveness of drugs. The mucosal immune preparation can facilitate the mucosal immunity of the body by mucosal immunity and thus facilitate the activation and proliferation of various immune cells, rather than merely acting on diseased local parts, so that the purposes of anti-infection and anti-tumor prevention and treatment with almost no side effects are realized.

  • Publication number: 20180360747
    Abstract: The addition of a salt to an ALA formulation that is dissolved in the mouth unexpectedly significantly reduces the degree of burning or irritation from ALA exposure during administration. This invention is particularly useful for an oral dissolved form of administration due to the extended time of ALA exposure that is possible with such formulations. The salt-inclusive formulations of the invention can increase efficacy of the ALA administration, reduce negative side effects, or both.
