Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 120 words
A process for obtaining new biologically active immunological substances which stimulate the formation of antibodies and accelerate the phagocytosis phenomenon, which comprises treating a delipidated soluble human casein with at least one proteolytic enzyme selected from trypsin and chymotrypsin, the ratio enzyme/substrate being in the neighborhood of 1/100 for 24 hours at 37° C., then, after centrifugation, fractionating the hydrosoluble products as a function of their mean molecular weight by filtration on a suitable support with 30% acetic acid as eluant, and then isolating the biologically active substances comprising: (a) substance IV having a mean molecular weight of 5,300; (b) substance V having a mean molecular weight of 2,230; and (c) substance VI having a mean molecular weight of 1,120.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 120 words
A process for obtaining new biologically active immunological substances which stimulate the formation of antibodies and accelerate the phagocytosis phenomenon, which comprises treating a delipidated soluble human casein with at least one proteolytic enzyme selected from trypsin and chymotrypsin, the ratio enzyme/substrate being in the neighborhood of 1/100 for 24 hours at 37° C., then, after centrifugation, fractionating the hydrosoluble products as a function of their mean molecular weight by filtration on a suitable support with 30% acetic acid as eluant, and then isolating the biologically active substances comprising: (a) substance IV having a mean molecular weight of 5,300; (b) substance V having a mean molecular weight of 2,230; and (c) substance VI having a mean molecular weight of 1,120.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 114 words
The process of claim 1 wherein substance V is subsequently filtered on a suitable column with, as eluant, a buffer solution whose pH decreases, and isolating a substance of basic character named MJH-24 and substances of acidic character named MJH-63 and MJH-65, said substance of basic character being isolated after elution with a buffer solution of TRIS and 0.01 M HCl at pH 8, and said substances of acidic character being isolated after elution with a buffer solution of TRIS and 0.01 M HCl at pH 3.5 which is 0.1 N sodium chloride, and then with a buffer solution of TRIS and 0.01 M HCl at pH 3.5 which is 0.5 N sodium chloride.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that it further comprises reacting the active substances obtained after filtration with a fatty acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process according to claim 3, characterized in that the fatty acid is in an activated derivative form.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 12 words
New biologically active immunological substances obtained by the process of claim 1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
New biologically active immunological substances obtained by the process of claim 2.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 32 words
A biologically active immunological pharmaceutical composition, characterized in that it contains an effective amount of at least one substance according to claim 5, associated with one or more compatible diluents or adjuvants.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 32 words
A biologically active immumological pharmaceutical composition, characterized in that it contains an effective amount of at least one substance according to claim 6, associated with one or more compatible diluents or adjuvants.
