The novel freeze-dried total extract of hybrid mild pumpkin has a homogeneous powdery appearance, a permanent yellow-organe colour, a pH between 6.44 and 6.47, a carbohydrate content of 63-67 %, a lipid content of 6 % +/- 0.5 %, a protein content of 10 % +/- 1 %, and a total carotenoid content of 25 mg +/- 10 % per gramme of the freeze-dried extract. This substance has therapeutical applications, particularly as an orally or transcutaneously administered drug having an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and pain-killing activity at least as great as that of betamethasone. |
