Abstract:
A nutritional formulation containing an amount of diacetyltartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides effective to inhibit the infectious activity of pathogenic microorganisms is provided. A method of inhibiting the infectious activity of pathogenic microorganisms including the step of feeding the nutritional composition to a subject is also provided.
Abstract:
A method of treating pneumonia or other respiratory disease caused by respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, parainfluenza virus, or influenza virus by orally administering a liquid, preferably an infant formula, containing a virus neutralizing antibody.
Abstract:
The present invention provides water-miscible lipid derivatives effective to inhibit the infectious activity of pathogenic microorganisms. Preferred water-miscible lipid derivatives are diacetyltartaric acid esters of monoglycerides wherein 90 percent or more of the fatty acid content is accounted for by a single fatty acid. The fatty acid component preferably contains from 8 to 24 and, more preferably, from about 10 to about 20 carbon atoms. The fatty acid can be saturated, unsaturated or hydroxylated.
Abstract:
A device for preparing drinking water in the form of a transportable table and travelling device with an interchangeable filter cartridge (24), a u/v lamp (25), an untreated water container (21) and a pure water container (28). The u/v lamp (25) is arranged above the open pure water container (28) and radiates directly thereinto. The u/v lamp (25), the filter cartridge (24) and the electrical components for operating the u/v lamp (25) or to control and monitor the device are combined into a structural unit which, during operation, is placed on the pure water container (28) and carries the preferably removable untreated water container (21) on its top. It is particularly easily transported if the unit (23) can be inserted into the untreated water container (21) and both components together can be inserted into the pure water container (28). The unit also has operating and indicating components to control the process and devices for preventing incorrect operation.
