Abstract:
Tissue glues can be divided into two groups: synthetic and biogenic. The use of the first is limited by poor tissue tolerance. Biogenic glue consists of fibrinogen, factor XIII, and thrombin, which form a fibrin clot in the presence of calcium. In our experiments we were able to prove an advantageous effect on hemostasis and healing. A new dried gluten developed on the basis of collagen represents a new type of biogenic gluten.
