Abstract: Substituted peptide compounds of the formula ##STR1## are disclosed. These compounds are useful as hypotensive agents due to their angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity and depending upon the definition of X may also be useful as analgesics due to their enkephalinase inhibition activity.
Abstract: An open ended ostomy pouch having a folding bar attached to the bottom of the pouch. The folding bar extends on both sides beyond the width of the pouch at the bottom opening and includes interlocking closure components on opposite ends.
Abstract: Carboxyalkyl dipeptides of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.4 is a 3-, 4-, 5-, or 4,4-substituted proline are disclosed. These compounds are useful as hypotensive agents due to their angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity.

Abstract: This invention is directed to compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is a thiazine or thiazepine selected from ##STR2## These compounds possess angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity and are thus useful as hypotensive agents.
Abstract: A system is provided by which an ostomy bag can be securely coupled to an adhesive dressing that fits around the stoma and yet will permit the bag to be removed without disturbing the dressing. This system involves a first coupling member bonded to the dressing and a second coupling member bonded to the ostomy bag around the stomal opening. One coupling member consists of an upstanding rib or other projection which is dimensioned to sealingly engage an opening in the other coupling member.
Abstract: This invention is directed to phosphinylmethylaminocarbonyl imino acid compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein X represents various unsubstituted or substituted imino acids or esters.
Abstract: Phosphonamidates of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is an amino acid or ester. These compounds possess angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity and enkephalinase inhibition activity. Thus they are useful as hypotensive and analgesic agents.

Abstract: A female incontinence device comprising an external resilient pad that makes sealing engagement with the user's anatomy that is external to the labia majora and a funnel having a rim dimensioned to engage that portion of the user's anatomy immediately surrounding the meatus of the urethra. The funnel is mounted to the pad, formed as part of the pad, or dimensioned to fit through an opening in the pad.
Abstract: Ostomy pouches are manufactured by partially contour welding two pouch walls one of which has a stoma aperture over an area extending from the top edge of the pouch past the region of the weld seam around the aperture. A separator member is inserted into the partially welded pouch and an adhesive label is then welded or bonded to the pouch wall around the aperture. The separator member is withdrawn and the contour welding is completed to form the completed pouch.
Abstract: Compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is an imino acid or ester and R.sub.1 is hydrogen, ##STR2## are useful hypotensive agents due to their angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity.
