  • ⁇ ny of the described preferred forms of the said capsule may have two parallel lines scored or cut along one of the said flat pieces of the capsule extending in size so as to form a strip which may be lifted from the said piece when bent and under which one or more of the fingers of the user may be placed. This process then allows a convenient method of holding the invention while a specific application of the said capsule is carried out.
  • the device In its medical scientific application the device can be left in position, for example over a closed wound and the progress of the healing process under a certain medication can be studied without the need to remove a sterile dressing thus minimising the spread of further infection.
  • the invention allows for a clean, simple application of the strip eliminating the problem of curling edges and the application of medicinals to the dressing pad of the strip.
  • a double-sided version of the device is used where difficult glueing situations arise and cleanliness is important.
  • the invention can supply precise amounts of two part adhesives eliminating all waste and guess-work.
  • the invention remains in-situ and becomes part of the glued joint.
