  2. Liquid bandage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_bandage

    Liquid bandage is a topical skin treatment for minor wounds which binds to the skin to form a protective polymeric layer that keeps dirt and germs out and moisture in. [1] It can be directly applied to the wound after removing debris.

  3. Butyl cyanoacrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butyl_cyanoacrylate

    The medical applications of butyl cyanoacrylate include its use as an adhesive for lacerations of the skin, [5] and in the treatment of bleeding from vascular structures. Butyl cyanoacrylate has been used to treat arteriovenous malformations [ 6 ] by application of the glue into the abnormality through angiography .

  4. Dermal adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermal_adhesive

    A dermal adhesive (or skin glue) is a glue used to close wounds in the skin as an alternative to sutures, staples, or clips. Glued closure results in less scarring and is less prone to infection than sutured or stapled closure. There is also no residual closure to remove, so follow-up visits for removal are not required.

  5. Cyanoacrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanoacrylate

    The compound 2-octyl cyanoacrylate degrades much more slowly due to its longer organic backbone (series of covalently bonded carbon molecules) and the adhesive does not reach the threshold of tissue toxicity. Due to the toxicity issues of ethyl cyanoacrylate, the use of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate for sutures is preferred.

  6. 2-Octyl cyanoacrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-octyl_cyanoacrylate

    2-Octyl cyanoacrylate is a cyanoacrylate ester typically used as a wound closure adhesive (under the brand name Dermabond). [1] It is closely related to octyl cyanoacrylate. The use of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate was approved in 1998; offered as an alternative to stitches, sutures, and or adhesive strips. [2]

  7. Wound closure strip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_closure_strip

    There are three cyanoacrylate compounds currently available as topical skin adhesives. 2-Octyl cyanoacrylate is marketed as Dermabond, SurgiSeal, and more recently LiquiBand Exceed. n-Butyl cyanoacrylate is marketed as Histoacryl, Indermil, GluStitch, GluSeal, PeriAcryl, and LiquiBand. The compound ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate is available as Epiglu. [3]

  8. Surgical suture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgical_suture

    Skin glues like Indermil and Histoacryl were the first medical grade tissue adhesives to be used, and these are composed of n-butyl cyanoacrylate. These worked well but had the disadvantage of having to be stored in the refrigerator, were exothermic so they stung the patient, and the bond was brittle.

  9. Alan Clive Roberts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Clive_Roberts

    [1] [2] He specialised in the research, development and the use of tissue adhesives in wound management. He is known by some as the "father of tissue adhesive". [3] [4] He was awarded the Prince Philip Medal for research in the field of implantation materials in 1970, the MBE in 1982, and the OBE for contributions to science and technology in ...
