SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing lysozyme dimers of high purity, for example with up to 10% by weight of unintended by-products, and new applications thereof. For such applications, the compositions may be used topically, orally or non-specifically for non-specific immunostimulation as a method of preventing and / or treating human and animal diseases such as cancer, hair growth disease, fish and bee diseases. Oral administration is included. Non-specific stimulation of the immune system is induced by single or repeated administration of the lysozyme dimer composition, preferably at a concentration of 5-500 μg / Kg body weight. |
