PACKAGED ABSORBENT ARTICLES
A package of one or more absorbent articles is disclosed. The package includes a packaging material. The packaging material including a polymeric film and an ink. The package also includes an absorbent article with a perfume composition, wherein the perfume composition has a perfume component and a carrier component. The carrier component is from about 15 wt. % to about 85 wt. % of the perfume composition. The carrier component is substantially insoluble in water.
TAMPON INSERTION DEVICE
A tampon insertion device for inserting a tampon from a tampon applicator into a vaginal canal. The devices includes a hollow casing having an open distal end, a proximal end, a top wall extending between the proximal and distal ends, an open bottom opposing the top wall, and a clamp portion located at the distal end of the casing. The device further includes a plunger actuator located in the interior of the casing for linear movement therein, and a handle slidably positioned external to the casing and connected to the actuator such that linear sliding movement of the handle with respect to the casing causes a corresponding linear movement of the actuator within the casing. A method of inserting a tampon is also provided.
Method and Apparatus for Disposal of Sanitary Waste
A method and apparatus for disposing of sanitary waste such as used adult and children diapers, sanitary pads, napkins, incontinence sheets, and like waste products.
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR STUDYING CELL EVOLUTION
The subject matter disclosed herein is generally directed to methods and compositions for tagging cells of interest, tracking evolution of the tagged cells, and recovering the original tagged cells for further study. Specifically, cells are tagged with a DNA construct encoding a barcode sequence comprising a guide sequence. Barcoded cells can then be recovered using a reporter construct having CRISPR target sequences specific for the cell having a barcode of interest.
Absorbent article with waist gasketing element and leg cuffs
A disposable absorbent article may include a chassis that includes a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet; and a leg gasketing system and a waist gasketing element. The leg gasketing system may include an inner cuff and an outer cuff; the inner cuff may include an inner cuff folded edge and an inner cuff material edge and the outer cuff may include an outer cuff folded edge and an outer cuff material edge such that the web of material is folded laterally inward to form the outer cuff folded edge and folded laterally outward to form the inner cuff folded edge. The leg gasketing system may also include a pocket. When tested by the Blowout Method Test as described herein, the disposable absorbent article has a Blowout Percent Leakage of less than about 9.0%.
COLLECTION OF ABSORBENT ARTICLE PACKAGES
A collection of feminine hygiene article packages is described. Each of the packages have a consumer-facing panel. In the collection are a plurality of first packages having a first size indicator, and a first plurality of feminine hygiene articles therein, and a plurality of second packages having a second size indicator and a second plurality of feminine hygiene articles therein. Each of the first plurality and second plurality of packages have a product guide having a first reference condition and a second reference condition. A first product indicator is associated with the first reference condition and a second product indicator is associated with the second reference condition. A first group product indicia associates the first product indicator with the second product indicator, wherein a first ratio of a length of the second plurality of absorbent articles to a length of the first plurality of absorbent articles is from between about 1.0 to about 1.5.

Absorbent article having a folded waist
An article including a front region, a back region, and a chassis. The chassis may include an absorbent core having a front end edge and a back end edge. The front region and the back region may extend laterally outward beyond side edges of the chassis. The front region and the back region may abut to form a first seam and a second seam. At least one of the front region and the back region may include an elastic member. A first outer nonwoven layer of the front region and a second outer nonwoven layer of the back region may be folded to form an upper edge in the front and back regions such that a distal end of each of the first and second outer nonwoven layer may be disposed between the upper edge and the front and back end edges of the absorbent core, respectively.
Patterned apertured webs
A patterned apertured web is disclosed. The patterned apertured web includes a plurality of land areas in the patterned apertured web and a plurality of apertures defined in the patterned apertured web. At least some land areas of the plurality of land areas surround at least some apertures of the plurality of apertures. The patterned apertured web has an Effective Open Area in the range of about 3% to about 30%, according to the Aperture Test herein. The plurality of apertures include a first set of apertures defining a first shape and a second set of apertures defining a second shape. The first shape is positioned within the second shape.
Shaped nonwoven
A nonwoven fabric. The nonwoven fabric can include a first surface and a second surface and a visually discernible pattern of three-dimensional features on one of the first or second surface. Each of the three-dimensional features can define a microzone comprising a first region and a second region. The first and second regions can have a difference in values for an intensive property. The nonwoven further has a plurality of apertures, wherein at least a portion of the aperture abuts at least one of the first region and the second region of the microzone.
