ItemBioglue®
FeaturesThe Bioglue component has a shelf life of 3 years if stored at 25 °C. Bioglue also adheres to synthetic graft materials via mechanical interlocks within the interstices of the graft matrix. The glutaraldehyde molecules covalently bond (cross-link) the BSA molecules to each other and, upon application, to the tissue proteins at the repair site, creating a flexible mechanical seal independently of the body’s clotting mechanism.
