Abstract:
A delivery device for a sanitary article includes an encapsulating material with a first layer and a second layer, enclosing an additive in a space formed by these layers of encapsulating material. The delivery device also includes a third layer, positioned above the second layer of encapsulating material. The third layer extends beyond and thereby covers substantially all of the edges of the second layer of encapsulating material. The third layer may also extend into and throughout the space formed between the first and second layers of encapsulating material that enclose the additive. The third layer thereby protects the user of a product comprising the delivery device from contact with the edges of the second layer of encapsulating material and also provides a means for attaching the delivery device to an article to keep it in place during transport storage and use. The invention also relates to sanitary articles, such as hygiene tissues and absorbent articles, containing the delivery device.
Abstract:
A hygiene tissue (1), such as a wet wipe, dry wipe, washcloth, patch, towelette, napkin, and the like includes a microbe-inhibiting composition (8). The microbe-inhibiting composition (8) includes an extracellular product of at least one probiotic bacterium and at least one additive in the form of an organic acid, with at least one of its pKa value not exceeding 5.5, and/or a salt thereof.
Abstract:
A novel strain of Lactobacillus fermentum, denoted strain Ess-1, which has been deposited at Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen GmbH and has been assigned accession number DSM17851. Lactobacillus fermentum, strain Ess-1, has shown valuable properties in the inhibition of Candida, and has medical uses, in particular for the treatment and/or prevention of candidasis and urinary tract infections. In addition, pharmaceutical products and articles include the novel bacterial strain.

Abstract:
An absorbent article, such as a diaper, diaper pants, sanitary towel or incontinence protector including a liquid-permeable cover layer intended to be directed toward the user during use, a liquid-impermeable backing layer intended to be directed away from the user during use, and an absorbent core between the cover layer and the backing layer. The article has a longitudinal direction, a transverse direction, two substantially longitudinal side edges, a substantially transverse front edge, a substantially transverse rear edge, a substantially longitudinal midline, and a front part and a rear part on each side of a center line. The midline and center line intersect one another at a point of intersection. The absorbent article includes at least one monovalent salt of the form X+Y− in a quantity of 1-75% by weight calculated on the basis of the weight of the core.
Abstract:
An absorbent article such as a sanitary napkin, panty liner, tampon, diaper, pant diaper, adult incontinence guard, containing a bacterial composition (8) in a lipid phase (9), the bacterial composition containing at least one lactic acid producing bacterial strain. The lipid phase (9) containing said bacterial composition (8) is applied on or in a carrier member (10) which at least before use of the article is impermeable to the lipid phase. The carrier member is located on a wearer facing side of the absorbent structure (4) so as to prevent significant transfer of the lipid phase into the absorbent structure.
Abstract:
An absorbent article, such as a sanitary napkin, a panty liner, or a protector from female incontinence, is intended for wear in the crotch region of the wearer inside her underclothes. The article is generally elongate in shape and has two long sides, two short sides, two end-portions, a center portion disposed between the end-portions, a liquid-permeable casing sheet intended to lie proximal to the wearer's body in use, a liquid-impermeable casing sheet intended to lie distal from the wearer's body in use, and between the layers in a direction from the liquid-permeable casing sheet and towards the liquid-impermeable casing sheet a drainage layer, an absorption layer, and a hump-forming element which together with the drainage layer and the absorption layer forms a hump which projects out from the plane of the napkin on that side of the napkin which is intended to lie proximal to the wearer in use. At least one cut is made through the drainage layer and the absorption layer, and the hump-forming element is protruded up through the layers.
Abstract:
A urine sampling device including: a transparent sheet including two layers, namely, a urine sampling layer and a support layer, wherein the urine sampling layer has liquid receiving and retaining properties by means of capillary forces and/or diffusion, and the device is arranged such that it can be positioned on the body side of an hygiene absorbent product. Also, a urine sampling arrangement and a urine sampling system, including the device. And, a hygiene absorbent product including the device, and a method for using the device.

Abstract:
An absorbent article, such as a diaper, diaper pants, sanitary towel or incontinence protector, with a vapor-permeable backing layer, including a liquid-permeable cover layer intended to be directed toward the user during use, a liquid-impermeable but vapor-permeable backing layer intended to be directed away from the user during use, and an absorbent core between the cover layer and the backing layer. The article has a longitudinal direction, a transverse direction, two substantially longitudinal side edges, a substantially transverse front edge, a substantially transverse rear edge, a substantially longitudinal midline, and a front part and a rear part on each side of a center line. The midline and center line intersect one another at a point of intersection. The absorbent article includes at least one monovalent salt of the form X+Y− in a quantity of 1-75% by weight calculated on the basis of the weight of the core.
