Abstract
A limiter for a dispensing device is provided. The limiter includes a body (20) arranged to mount with at least a portion of a dispensing device (300), and a stop extending from the body. The stop (40) is configured to permit movement a plunger of the dispensing device a predetermined distance in a dispensing direction correlated to a desired volume of medium to be delivered from the dispensing device. The stop is configured to prevent further movement of the plunger in the dispensing direction, thereby limiting the amount of medium delivered from the dispensing device. The dispensing device may be a syringe.
