Abstract
Abstract The subject matter of this invention is a process for solid albumin particles so that such spheric particles may act as a carrier for radioactivity, drugs, insecticides, dyes, metal salts, etc. In order to prepare such spheric particles, the substance to be incorporated therein is transformed into a precipitate. This precipitate is then mixed with an aqueous solution of albumin. The mixture thus prepared is then injected into cotton seed oil while stirring so as to obtain a fine dispersion of the albumin droplets and the precipitate in the oil, then the mixture is heated above 100°C to evaporate water and to form spheric albumin particles having the precipitate encapsulated therein.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
85 words
A process for incorporating a substance capable of being precipitated into albumin millimicrospheres comprising: preparing a precipitate of said substance and forming a mixture of the precipitate with an aqueous solution of albumin; injecting said mixture into oil and pressing the resultant through a fine capillary or rotating disc to form an extremely fine emulsion of droplets of the precipitate and albumin in said oil, heating said oily mixture above 100°C and separating the formed albumin millimicrospheres from said oil having said precipitate encapsulated therein.
