Diluted Amino Acid Segments for Safer Homeopathic Remedies
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Homeopathic formulations using complete proteins pose a higher risk profile, necessitating the development of alternative formulations that provide similar benefits with a lower risk profile.
Innovation Solution
The development of highly diluted formulations using amino acid segments, each with a peptide sequence similar to a portion of a longer peptide sequence found in naturally occurring materials, which are mixed with a diluting agent and serially diluted to create a homeopathic remedy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If complete proteins are used in homeopathic formulations, then therapeutic benefits are achieved, but risk profile increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides complete proteins into smaller amino acid segments (peptides of 2-20 amino acids). This segmentation maintains the therapeutic benefits of the original protein while reducing the risk profile by eliminating potential contaminants and immunogenicity concerns associated with whole proteins.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts specific amino acid sequences from complete proteins to create isolated peptide segments. This extraction process removes harmful components while retaining the beneficial therapeutic effects of the active amino acid sequences.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If amino acid segments are used instead of complete proteins, then risk profile is reduced, but formulation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by using specific amino acid segments with particular sequences (2-20 amino acids) that are tailored to target specific therapeutic effects. This localized approach allows for customized formulations that address specific health conditions while maintaining simplicity in the overall formulation process.

AI summary
A formulation of a diluted amino acid fragment is prepared by mixing an amino acid fragment and a diluting agent to form a mixture. The mixture is serially diluted to produce a diluted formulation. The amino acid fragment includes a peptide sequence that is the same as a portion of a longer peptide sequence found in a naturally occurring material. A homeopathic remedy can be prepared using the formulation.
