The invention relates to the use of implantable microcapsules, or microparticles or gels produced from alginates that are crosslinked with bivalent or multivalent cations or that are uncrosslinked, for the treatment of skin defects such as e.g. wrinkles, for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux, urinary incontinence and vesico-ureteral reflux.

Injectable crosslinked and uncrosslinked alginates and the use thereof in medicine and in cosmetic surgery

Powdered or granulated enzyme preparations, free of surface active agents and containing a protease as the active enzyme, wherein the protease is present as a tannin complex, with the proviso that the enzyme preparation consists of at least 50 percent by weight and up to 99.9 percent by weight of one or more conventional diluent salts. Methods for soaking and bating skins and hides using such preparations.

Enzyme preparation containing protease

The content of phosphorus-containing components and the iron content of an edible vegetable or animal oil, preferably an oil such as soybean oil which has been wet-refined to remove mucilage, are reduced by enzymatic decomposition by contacting the oil with an aqueous solution of phospholipases A.sub.1, A.sub.2, or B and then separating the aqueous phase from the treated oil.

Enzymatic treatment of edible oils

A method for making a stable aqueous liquid formulation containing at least one enzyme having proteolytic activity is disclosed. The method involves precipitating the enzyme from an aqueous medium with a salt to form a dispersion of the enzyme. The dispersion has a density of 1.22 g/cm.sup.3 to 1.23 g/cm.sup.3 due to the use of the salt. This process yields a sedimentation-resistant stable enzyme dispersion.

In a process for imidizing an alkyl methacrylate polymer by reaction with a nitrogen-containing imidizing agent, the formation of carboxyl and anhydride groups is suppressed when a portion of the imidizing agent is added only after the previously added imidizing agent has been reacted at least partially, and particularly when the reaction with the imidizing agent is terminated before the polymer has been completely imidized.
