A large enteral feed cup large enough to contain an amount of fluid suitable for a single dose (nutrition and/or medicines) is described. The enteral feed cup can be free-standing on the proximal end so as to facilitate filling via an opening on the distal end. The distal end includes a resealable closure for an opening that can be quite large and thus can be easily filled with less chance of spillage. The free-standing design of the enteral feed cup can also allow for the cup to be used in any convenient location.

Disclosed are polymeric constructs that can advantageously be utilized in a wide variety of fluid contact devices. The constructs include two or more polymeric materials, at least one of which includes reactive functionality so as to preferentially interact with an analyte of interest. The polymeric constructs include the reactive materials in discrete areas of the devices, so as to provide the reactive functionality in a patterned array across a fluid contacting surface of the device. The reactive functionality can be provided in a macro-, a micro-, or a nano-patterned array, depending upon the specific parameters of the formation process. The devices can be utilized in separation protocols as well as other applications involving controlled fluid flow across a reactive surface.

A process for bonding filament with aqueous based polyethylene terephthalate or polyurethane bonding agents via a foam delivery system is disclosed. The process includes the steps of: (a) providing a filament; (b) providing a foam prepared by foaming a solution comprising an agent selected from the group consisting of polyethylene terephthalate or polyurethane bonding agents; (c) applying a foam to said filament; and (d) drying and curing said filament.
