accumulation of substances produced by the decomposition of the gas. 
     Specifically, the aluminum passivation is applied on the piping parts, i.e.
the valve and others, used in the vacuum exhaustion system to inhibit the gas
decomposition caused by the temperature rise at the time of the baking so that
components for the reduction in the diameter size in the vacuum exhaustion
system are provided. The corrosions, cloggings and seat leakages caused by

IPC: A61K39/21

Abstract: The invention relates to the finding that virus like particles (VLPs) can be loaded with immunostimulatory substances, in particular with DNA oligonucleotides containing non-methylated C and G (CpGs). Such CpG-VLPs are dramatically more immunogenic than their CpG-free counterparts and induce enhanced B and T cell responses. The immune response against antigens optionally coupled, fused or attached otherwise to the VLPs is similarly enhanced as the immune response against the VLP itself. In addition, the T cell responses against both the VLPs and antigens are especially directed to the Th1 type. Antigens attached to CpG-loaded VLPs may therefore be ideal vaccines for prophylactic or therapeutic vaccination against allergies, tumors and other self-molecules and chronic viral diseases.
