Abstract: A method and devices for dispensing adhesive onto an elastic strand are configured to apply first, second, and third volumes of adhesive onto first, second, and third portions of the elastic strand, respectively. When the elastic strand is adhesively secured to a substrate to form a personal disposable hygiene product, the first and third portions of the elastic strand define opposing ends of the elastic strand, which are adhered with a larger amount of adhesive or a stronger adhesive material capable of limiting movement of the strand at the opposing ends. The method and devices advantageously use a module and nozzle which maintain separation between first and second adhesive streams received from different adhesive supplies at least until flow within the nozzle. This arrangement enables use of different adhesives to form the first, second, and third volumes, as well as “wet-on-wet” contact dispensing using multiple nozzle outlets.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods of using ?2 adrenergic receptor agonists as treatments for ADHD. The ?2 adrenergic receptor agonist for use with these methods is a benzimidazole derivative, and may be specifically N-(4,5-Dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-7-cyano-4-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-5-amine acetate. Formulations and routes of administration are also described.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a disposable absorbent personal hygiene product including a stretched elastic strand and a flat nonwoven substrate includes mixing a pressurized gas and hot melt adhesive to form a foamed adhesive. A filament of foamed adhesive is discharged toward the stretched elastic strand and deposited onto the stretched elastic strand so that the foamed adhesive expands in volume on the stretched elastic strand. The stretched elastic strand is secured to the flat nonwoven substrate with the foamed adhesive. Alternatively, the foamed adhesive secures two flat nonwoven substrate portions of the disposable absorbent personal hygiene product together.
