Probiotic compositions suitable for intravaginal administration to a non-human animal comprising one or more strains of bacteria native to the vagina of the species of animal and a non-aqueous base, probiotic products, kits, and systems comprising the probiotic compositions, and methods of using the probiotic compositions, products, kits, and systems.

The rare non-dietary very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLC-PUFAs) uniquely found in retina and a few other tissues play a clinically significant role in retinal degeneration and development, but their physiological and interventional research has been hampered by scarcity of pure VLC-PUFAs. Disclosed herein are methods of making fatty acids, including VLC-PUFAs, and methods of using these fatty acids in, for example, treating eye disorders and supplementing the diet of a female subject who is pregnant, desiring to become pregnant, or lactating. Also disclosed are compositions containing fatty acids and methods of making and using same. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

The present disclosure relates to compositions comprising an oil-in-water nano-emulsion dispersed in an external oil phase, methods for the preparation of such compositions as well as uses of such compositions, for example, for delivery of active ingredients to a subject. The methods comprise combining a first mixture comprising a liquid oil and a charged lipid with a second mixture that is an aqueous mixture comprising a film-forming thermoreversible emulsifier to prepare an oil-in-water nano-emulsion; and combining the oil-in-water nano-emulsion with a third mixture comprising a combination of solid lipids to prepare the composition.
