Disclosed is a new system for the application of mucoadhesive oral care compositions. The system comprises an applicator, the inner surface of which is made anti-adhesive. Particularly, said inner surface is rendered positively charged, so as to be anti-adhesive for positively charged mucoadhesive oral care compositions, such as those based on chitosan.

A method of manufacturing a delaminatable container is provided that is capable of uniformly delaminating the inner bag from the outer shell. According to the first aspect, a container body is formed having an outer shell and an inner bag. The inner bag preliminary delaminated from the outer shell in an entire circumference of a storage portion of the container body by rotating the container body while pressing the storage portion with a pressing mechanism from outside for compression or by moving the pressing mechanism along an outer circumference of the container body.

A sealing mechanism for a waste storage container includes a waste storage container that has a body, a lid and a cartridge adapted to be positioned in the body. The cartridge has a continuous length of storage film therein. The storage film emanates through a gap between a rim and a core tube of the cartridge and is folded down through a core opening in the core tube into an interior space of the body of the waste storage container. The sealing mechanism includes an actuator accessible from outside the body, a gear assembly operably connected to the actuator, a retaining assembly that holds stationary a dispensed portion of the storage film in the interior space of the body during a twist-closure operation, and a plunger operably connected to the gear assembly
