Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling and regulating fluid output from a syringe or other dispensing device that is not dependent on use of a specialized technique by a user. A fluid chamber can volumetrically increase or decrease depending upon the pressure of fluid being displaced from the chamber. The fluid chamber defines an internal volume that will automatically and dynamically adjust in order to maintain a desired output fluid flow rate from an outlet that will not exceed a predetermined maximum flow rate. Little or no frictional forces are imparted. The adjustable fluid chamber can exhibit a resistance to expansion that corresponds to a desired output fluid flow rate, while maintaining a substantially constant fluid pressure required to create a desired output flow rate through an outlet.

Abstract: Coating compositions and pellets coated therewith which are adaptable for oral administration to ruminants are disclosed. The coating protects the core material of the pellets in the rumen and releases it postruminally. The coating is a specific mixture of a film-forming polymeric material, hydrophobic material and flake material.
