A handheld dispenser (10) for dispensing a powder. The dispenser (10) comprises a container (12) comprising a first opening (14), and a powder storage volume (16) for storing the powder (100). The dispenser (10) also comprises a rotatable member (18), located in the container (12); and a handle (20) connected to the rotatable member (18). The dispenser (10) also comprises an actuator (22) at least partially located on the handle (20), wherein the actuator (22) is actuatable to rotate the rotatable member (18) in the container (12) for allowing powder (100) located in the powder storage volume 16 of the container to travel past the rotatable member (18) and out from the first opening (14). The powder storage volume (16) is preferably no more than 200 ml.

A scooping and dispensing device for efficiently storing, measuring, transferring, mixing, and/or dispensing materials such as powders. The scooping and dispensing device generally includes a funnel and a cover rotatably connected within the funnel. The cover is adapted to be rotated between a plurality of rotational positions with respect to the funnel. A handle may be grasped and rotated; with the handle being connected to the cover such that both the handle and cover rotate together. The cover may thus be rotated to an inverted position to form a chamber to store or mix one or more materials. A cap is removably connected to the lower opening of the funnel; with the cap being removed from the lower opening to dispense the material(s) out of the funnel.

The present invention relates generally to the field of recyclable dosing devices. In particular, the present invention relates to a blank for producing a recyclable dosing device, a recyclable dosing device and the use of a recyclable dosing device for dosing a material. The recyclable dosing device can be produced from a blank made from a single piece of essentially rectangular material by folding. Preferred embodiments of the present invention relate to compostable dosing devices.

A container for delivering ingredients of a meal kit to a consumer. The container comprises a main container and one or more cups removably locatable within the main container. The one or more cups may vary in size and shape. Various combinations of cups of different sizes and shapes can be located in the main container. In spite of the various sizes and shapes of cups that may be located in the main container, a lid may be provided that seals the main container and each of the one or more cups that are located within the main container for different selections and arrangements of the cups. In some embodiments, each of the one or more cups is supported above a base surface of the main container to create a space between the one or more cups and the base surface of the main container.

A polymer vial with a tubular body having a geometric shape including (i) a neck having an opening orifice, and (ii) a closed base formed by flattening and sealing a bottom edge of the tubular body. The vial will also include a snap off cap integrally formed on the neck and a liquid content contained in the tubular body. A plurality of dosage lines are printed on the tubular body, the dosage lines having a non-uniform spacing corresponding to the variable volume per unit length of the vial geometric shape. Each line corresponds to a dosage volume of the liquid content when the opening orifice is oriented in the vertically upward position.

Disclosed are methods, materials and devices for approximation of blood volume in a fluid, and/or blood loss from fluid collected during a surgical procedure. Methods of detecting blood in a sample, such as a fluid sample, and kits for performing the methods, are also provided. Methods for approximating a volume of blood in a fluid using a computer are also provided. The method may be performed using a computer device having a graphical user interface (GUI), a processor configured to receive information input by a user at the user interface (type of canister, red blood cell packing ratio of the canister, subject specific identifying information, blood hematocrit (Hct), etc.), and a means for the computing device to transmit to the user interface via an electronic network, a value of a volume of blood in a fluid and/or an approximate volume measure of blood loss. The processor determines a volume of blood in a fluid, and transmits the determined volume measure of blood to the user.
