摘要:
Diploid Pelargonium peltatum plants containing a factor resulting in male sterility and/or in their petals at least one of the anthocyanidins pelargonidin and paeonidin, and which may be propagated by seed, as well as the introduction of said characteristics into Pelargonium peltatum using plant breeding and tissue culture techniques.
摘要:
The invention provides the use of at least one amino acid selected from the group consisting of glycine, alanine and serine, or the physiologically acceptable salts thereof, in the preparation of a medicament or nutritional formulation for the diminution of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) levels in patients in whom said levels are elevated beyond those which mediate physiological homeostasis and local inflammation. Such diminution of TNF levels can i.a. be achieved by inhibition or diminution of: (i) tumor necrosis factor (TNF) production by macrophage-type cells; (ii) the release of TNF from macrophage-type cells; and/or (iii) the binding of TNF by TNF receptors.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of minimizing hepatic reperfusion injury in a patient following surgery which comprises pre-operatively administering to a patient in need of such treatment omega-3 fatty acids in an amount sufficient to improve the hepatic micro-circulation, said omega-3 PUFAs being protected in a pharmacologically acceptable way against peroxidation.

Use of chromic tripicolinate to maintain insulin sensitivity resulting from weight loss, to reduce body fat and to reduce coronary risk factors in obese diabetic patients.
摘要:
Device for placing a guide wire through a gastrostomy tube (12) which has a plug (10) through which only the guide wire can pass in slidable communication. The plug prevents air from escaping from the stomach (13), thus, preventing the collapse of the stomach during the guide wire placement. The plug may comprise a substantially cylindrical member (22) having a longitudinal bore (21) for receiving the guide wire in slidable communication.
摘要:
Composition capable of controlling pathogens, methods of combatting plant pathogens and recombinant DNA sequences coding for amino acid sequences which display pathogenic activity against a wide range of fungi or bacteria, and which comprise amino acid sequences and amino acid sequences from position 1 through to 106 parts of SEQ ID No: 3 and modifications thereof, being the natural protein P4, secreted by Ustilago maydis.

摘要:
A liquid foodstuff which is supplemented with dietary fibre is described, the specific interaction of which both curbs the appetite and promotes intestinal activity, which is achieved in that the liquid foodstuff contains from 15 to 30 g/l of total dietary fibre and in addition 30 to 60 g/l concentrated aqueous extract from dried plums and from 65 to 150 g/l of fructose.
