Abstract: A method of manufacturing a personal cleansing device that has a pourable sodium soap impregnated substantially throughout the interior thereof and produces lather in hard water as well as soft water. The method comprises the steps of: providing a pourable sodium soap having a melting point of 120° F. to 160° F. that is in essentially solid form at a first temperature, and in essentially pourable molten form at a second temperature; heating the pourable sodium soap to the second temperature such that the pourable sodium soap is in pourable molten form; applying the molten pourable sodium soap to one or more portions of a substrate comprised of web of fibers; and allowing the pourable sodium soap to cool down to the first temperature to resolidify within interstitial spaces between the fibers of the substrate. The pourable sodium soap comprises at least one sodium soap and 5% to 35% glycerine.

Abstract: A cleansing pad (10) is made of a web of fibers, forming a substrate (11), where the substrate (11) includes a cleansing agent (12) therein. The cleansing agent (12) is a pourable soap. In making the cleansing pad (10), the cleansing agent (12) is initially heated from solid form into molten/liquid form, and distributed essentially throughout one or more portions of the substrate (11) in molten form to coat the fibers in said portions of the substrate (11). After application of the molten cleansing agent (12), the substrate (11) is then allowed to cool such that the molten cleansing agent (12) solidifies and remains solid at a desired range at and above room temperature, forming the cleansing pad (10). Thereafter, in use, the cleansing pad (10) is applied for cleaning an object in conjunction with a solvent such as water. The solvent dissolves the solidified cleansing agent (12).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for monitoring or treating a health condition. The method can include accessing a biological fluid, evaluating an analyte in the fluid, presenting a measurement parameter based on the evaluation, and/or administering a treatment based on the evaluation. The measurement parameter can prompt administering a treatment. The system can include a fluid handling device, a display and/or alert device, and/or an administration device.
