Abstract: A method of forming a granule having an internal three-dimensional framework of channels to control and sustain the release of an active ingredient for enteric delivery of the active ingredient in an animal fed the granule. In the composition of the granules hydrogenated vegetable oil, HVO for example, is combined with a modifier to create a granule with channels through which the active ingredient is released. The active ingredients, including but not limited to metal salts of butyric acid, can be released in the lower gut of the animal where it will best benefit the animal. By adjusting the amount of the modifier, the release rate of the active can be adjusted to suit the passage rate of the species of animal being fed.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a pen-type injector equipped with a cartridge holder for a drug delivery device. The cartridge holder has a longitudinal axis and comprises a body for receiving a cartridge, wherein the body comprises at a proximal end engagement means for releasably coupling the cartridge holder to the drug delivery device, a latch member for releasably engaging a cap of the drug delivery device and an alignment element which is visual from the outer side of the body. The alignment element may be an aperture provided in the body and/or a lug which forms the latch member.

Abstract: A process for associating a scent with a laundry article including the steps of: providing a fluid pervious substrate carrying a perfume on, within, or at least partially enclosed by the substrate; placing the substrate in proximity to a partially saturated laundry article within a container or pile; transferring the laundry article and the substrate from the container or the pile into a washing machine; and washing the laundry article together with the substrate.

Abstract: A mandoline has a food holder and a food pusher, the food holder being slidable along the body and the food pusher being rotatably mounted on the food holder, the food pusher having a first pusher wall and a second pusher wall, the second pusher wall being in the form of a substantially flat plate and the first pusher wall being arranged perpendicular to the second pusher wall and being jaw-shaped in nature.

Abstract: An injection system for co-delivery of two medicaments (1, 2) having a drug delivery device (7) containing a primary reservoir (11) containing a first medicament (1) and having a secondary reservoir (5, 17, 30) containing a second medicament (2) where the drug delivery device (7) has only one dose setter (12) for the primary reservoir (11) and that automatically determines the dose of the second medicament (2). Both medicaments (1, 2) are delivered through a single dispense interface (3, 16, 21, 31).

Abstract: A computerized electro-mechanical drug delivery device (10) configured to deliver at least one dose of two or more medicaments. The device comprises a control unit (300). An electro-mechanical drive unit (500, 600) is operably coupled to the control unit and a primary reservoir (90) for a first medicament and a secondary reservoir (100) for a fluid agent, e.g. a second medicament. An operator interface (60) is in communication with the control unit (300). A single dispense assembly (200) is configured for fluid communication with the primary (90) and the secondary (100) reservoir. Activation of the operator panel sets a first dose from the primary reservoir and based on the first dose and a therapeutic dose profile (860), the control unit (300) is configured to determine a dose or range of the fluid agent. Alternatively, the control unit determines or calculates a dose or range of a third medicament.

Abstract: A simulation device for simulating the operation of a medication delivery device comprises a housing (1) and a moveable element (4) partly disposed in the housing (1). The moveable element is moveable from a first position to a second position.
