Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 23
Claim 1
Independent Claim 77 words
A peptide of the formula ##STR2## wherein the shown aminoacid is in the D-configuration, X is chlorine or fluorine, R o is hydrogen or deuterium, and R is the acyl moiety of a naturally occurring aminoacid in the L-configuration or an α-amino fatty acid wherein the α-amino group may carry a fatty acid acyl group, an aminoloweralkyl acyl group or a loweralkyl group, or the corresponding loweralkyl esters of said peptide, or nontoxic acid addition salts thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 77 words
A peptide of the formula ##STR2## wherein the shown aminoacid is in the D-configuration, X is chlorine or fluorine, R o is hydrogen or deuterium, and R is the acyl moiety of a naturally occurring aminoacid in the L-configuration or an α-amino fatty acid wherein the α-amino group may carry a fatty acid acyl group, an aminoloweralkyl acyl group or a loweralkyl group, or the corresponding loweralkyl esters of said peptide, or nontoxic acid addition salts thereof.
