    Abstract: The micro-bolus feeder kit for infants includes at least one syringe and at least one adapter fitting for connecting a nipple ring (or nipple collar) and a nipple to the syringe so that the syringe may be used to deliver metered amounts of milk, formula, or other liquid nutrition to the infant. The syringe is preferably a 3 mL to 5 mL syringe with a plunger and graduated markings to show the volume of liquid in the syringe, and is capable of delivering the liquid in one-tenth to two-tenths milliliter increments. The adapter fitting is an annular disk adapted for gripping the tubular syringe barrel by friction or pressure fit, or resiliently, and has external threads on its periphery dimensioned and configured for receiving a nipple ring in order to attach a nipple to the delivery end of the syringe.
