Patent GB-643331-A (GB)
Title: Manufacture of proteolysed liver preparations
IPC: A61K31/00
Filed: 1947-05-20
Abstract: A proteolyzed preparation is obtained by subjecting mammalian liver material to proteolysis by the action of pancreatic enzymes at a temperature of 35-65 DEG C in an aqueous medium having a pH range of 5.0-7.0, heating the resulting aqueous mixture to destroy the enzymes and coagulate undigested material therein, and separating the aqueous liquor from the coagulated material.  The enzymes may be in the form of pancreas gland material or of an enzyme preparation obtained from pancreas gland material.  The resulting aqueous preparation may be purified, fat being precipitated by adding alcohol to produce a mixture containing 70 per cent alcohol, and after removing the precipitated material, the active material remaining in the liquid being precipitated by increasing the alcohol concentration to 95 per cent.  The precipitated material may be dissolved in water to provide an active aqueous preparation.  If desired the aqueous solution may be further purified by precipitating it by saturation with ammonium sulphate, dissolving the precipitate in aqueous alcohol and, after the removal of excess of sulphate, evaporating the alcohol to produce a concentrated active aqueous preparation.  The aqueous proteolyzed preparation, with or without subsequent purification, as described, may be used for oral administration, or may be dried to produce a product suitable for oral administration.  The aqueous preparation may be made suitable for parenteral administration by sterilization. The active preparation contains riboflavin pyridoxine, folic acid and nicotinic acid.  An example describes the use of beef liver and beef pancreas.  Specification 565,986 is referred to.

Abstract: 561,841. Chlorosulphonic acid. WENTWORTH, G. E., MOONEY, R. B., and IMPERIAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES, Ltd. Oct. 2, 1942, No. 13840. [Class 1 (ii)] Chlorosulphonic acid is manufactured by a continuous process in which a stream of hydrochloric acid-containing gases and a stream of sulphur trioxide-containing gases are caused to intermingle so that sulphur trioxide is in excess, and under conditions such that the chlorosulphonic acid condenses, the condensate is separated and contacted with the hydrochloric acid-containing gases, whereby sulphur trioxide contained in the chlorosulphonic acid reacts to form chlorosulphonic acid and remains with the acid already produced in a final product of high purity. In the arrangement of apparatus shown, sulphur trioxide is delivered from a pipe 3 and hydrochloric acid from a pipe 4 into a sinuous reaction vessel 1 cooled by a spray 2. The reaction products pass to a separator 5 whence separated. chlorosulphonic acid flows through a tower 11 in counter current to hydrochloric acid gases entering at 12, chlorosulphonic acid being withdrawn at 13. Gases from the separator 5 pass to a dry scrubber 6 and thence to a sulphuric acid scrubber 7 wherein excess sulphur trioxide is absorbed.

Abstract: 559,281. Nozzles. SMITH, F. Oct. 8, 1942, No. 14113. [Class 69 (iii)] Relates to a liquid delivery apparatus of the kind wherein one or more bores or a blank portion in a revolvable disc may be brought successively into alignment with the delivery orifice to vary the jet, convert it into spray or shut off the flow, and consists in mounting the revolvable disc on a stud provided with an adjusting nut pressing upon a spring which prevents the disc from being lifted from its seat. As shown, a manually-revolvable member 8 is secured eccentrically to the delivery orifice 3 by a pivot stud 7 encircled by a spring 9. A ball-bearing 13 eliminates friction and thereby facilitates rotation of the member 8 which is provided with one or more passages 22 any one of which may be brought into alignment with the incoming liquid without the necessity for shutting off the flow of liquid. The passages 22 may be of different shapes or tapers, to vary the velocity or volume of the jet. One or more of the passages may taper outwardly to produce a spray. A blank portion may be provided to register with the delivery orifice 3 so as to shut off the liquid flow. A spring-pressed catch 15 locates the revolvable member 8 in its various positions, and radial screws 19 coact with an annular groove 20 to assist in retaining the member 8 in position. Specification 552,596 is referred to.
