Abstract: A urinary catheter assembly comprises at least one urinary catheter (1) and a flexible tubular catheter package comprising a hose member (4) narrowly surrounding the catheter (1). A proximal end of the catheter is connected with a connector member (3) and the package comprises a tubular compartment (10) connected with the hose member (4) for accommodation of the connector member (3). The compartment (10) is closed in a first end by a detachable cover member (11) and is detachably connected with the hose member (4). The compartment (10) is further formed with walls (14) of a thin flexible material, so that by removal of the catheter (1) and the compartment (10) from the hose member (4) the compartment (10) may be arranged on the catheter shaft for used as an applicator for safely guided introduction of the catheter into the urethra (15).

Abstract: Sour milk, either chemically or biologically soured, is gelled by the use of electronegative gelling agents when a stabilizer such as a high methoxyl pectin, carboxymethyl cellulose or propylene glycol alginate is added to the milk prior to addition of the gelling agent. The presence of the stabilizer also permits the product to be pasteurized prior to gelling.
