Bioinspired Nanoparticulate Medical Glues for Minimally Invasive Tissue Repair

Bioinspired Nanoparticulate Medical Glues for Minimally Invasive Tissue Repair

Delivery of tissue glues through small-bore needles or trocars is critical for sealing holes, affixing medical devices, or attaching tissues together during minimally invasive surgeries. Inspired by the granule-packaged glue delivery system of sandcastle worms, a nanoparticulate formulation of a vis...
