Abstract: A disposable balloon catheter and corresponding catheter system are disclosed. In one embodiment, the catheter system comprises several components, such as: (a) an elongated catheter comprising a first outer diameter, a first proximal end and a first distal end; (b) an elongated balloon carrier having a second proximal end, a second distal end and a second outer diameter, the second proximal end of the carrier and the first distal end of the catheter being configured to permit the first distal end of the catheter to matingly engage the second proximal end of the carrier, the second outer diameter of the balloon carrier being similar to the first outer diameter of the catheter; and (c) a disposable balloon formed from an expandable and resilient biocompatible material, the balloon having a lumen disposed between a third proximal end and a third distal end thereof, the lumen having at least a third inside diameter.

Abstract: A process for supply of low concentrations of biologically active materials to base materials such as a processed foodstuff or an animal food, in which the biologically active material is slurried in an inert carrier, where it is insoluble, to form a homogeneous suspension, after which the suspension is applied to the base material by means of a device converting the suspension to an easily applicable form, the suspension coating the surface of the base material in an even layer. The suspension is maintained homogeneous by stirring and at an even temperature before being applied to the base material at such a rate than an even and predetermined concentration of the biologically active material is obtained per weight unit distributed on the surface of the base material.
