Abstract

Recently, the interest of international pharmaceutical industries has been directed more and more to high molecular compounds (peptides, proteins) with distinctive biological activities as forerunners of a new therapeutic era. On this bases some people are even dreaming of a new biosocietyaround the turn of this century (Howink 1985).
