Abstract
The present invention relates to compositions of water dispersible and water soluble carbohydrate polymers and biologically active macromolecules of growth hormones, somatomedins, growth factors, and other biologically active fragments which are suitable for parenteral administration. The present invention also relates to a method for increasing and for maintaining increased levels of growth hormone in the blood of treated animals for extended periods of time, increasing weight gains in animals, and increasing milk production of lactating animals by the administration of the compositions of the invention.
