Pretty straight-forward, I think. Right? Anyone?

carboxylated amino derivatives
Acidyliert... is of course rubbish.
If the author is referring to an acid group this would be "carboxylated" i.e. a COO- functionality (as opposed to the R-CO- functionality (acyl) proposed by Marcello)
Ref.: I am a chemist

I think the problem stems from the fact that an acid group is designated as "carboxy..." in English. Instead of looking for the correct term, I suspect the author (pharmacist/biochemist - who are notorious at getting nomenclature wrong!) simplified matters by calling it an acidylating group - anything using "säure" is even more weird.
All amino acids are in fact carboxylated amino compounds

acetylated amino derivatives/compounds
It appears that "acidyliert" is an old (or maybe local?) version of "acetyliert" which would translate to "acetylated"/"acetylised" rather than "acylated".

For 'acidyliert' = 'acetyliert' see e.g. this journal article from 1939:
http://www.springerlink.com/content/b67600hg25g6p142/
...acidylierte Oxybenzoesäuren (Propionyl- und Butyrylsalicylsäure,
Acetyl- und Chloracetyl-jodsalicylsäure...)

Oops, I just realized that the reference quoted supports "acylated" rather than "acetylated" - as by "Acidylierung" multiple acyl salicylic acid compounds are created.

Gillian Scheibelein (meets criteria)
: acetylated (CH3CO) is included by acylated (RCO)//edit: acylated covers acetylated (the more specific term). Both are quite a long way from acidyl.....

Thanks for your comment and suggestion, Gillian. I am not sure, though, why this should be an argument against 'acidyliert' = 'acetyliert'.
