Abstract: A container (5) comprising a valve (10) with a valve member (12) and a valve seat (14). The container (5) has a retainer for retaining the valve member (12). The valve (10) defines a flowpath between the valve member (12) and the valve seat (14), the flowpath being selectively openable by movement of at least a portion of the valve member (12) away from the valve seat (14) in response to suction. The flowpath does not pass through any aperture within the valve member (12).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel vaccine compositions and methods for immunising subjects against Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. The invention involves the use of mineral oil adjuvants, or white mineral oil adjuvants, more specifically those having CAS 8042-47-5, CAS 1335203-18-3, CAS 1174522-45-2, CAS 1335203-17-2 (or EC equivalents 232-455-8, 932-078-5, 934-954-2 and 934-956-3, respectively) to reduce lesions or adverse reactions.

Abstract: A waste disposal device for sealing waste and a cassette for dispensing film are disclosed. The waste disposal device comprises first and second rollers, each comprising first and second end portions and a joining portion therebetween. The end portions of the first and second rollers are arranged to receive and seal first and second film portions therebetween as the first and second rollers rotate. The joining portions of the first and second rollers are arranged to define an aperture for receiving waste in a first rotary configuration of the rollers and to seal the first and second film portions therebetween in a second rotary configuration of the first and second rollers. The cassette comprises first and second portions comprising respective first and second film dispensers. The first portion is mechanically connected to the second portion. The cassette is moveable between a first, compact configuration and a second, extended configuration.
