Abstract: Processes for modifying the viscosity of medically useful polymerizable compositions are described. The processes are carried out by providing an oxygen-free fluid composition comprising one or more polymerizable monomers and subsequently irradiating the composition with a controlled dose of high-energy radiation sufficient to effect a desired viscosity increase. Compositions produced via these process are also disclosed.
Abstract: Alkyl cyanoacrylate compositions and methods for making those compositions, utilizing high purity monomeric starting materials, formed into more viscous oligomers, and combined with a plasticizer and inhibitor to provide a single-container, storage stable medical cyanoacrylate.

Abstract: A method for treating wounds by adhering a wound dressing to a wound with a polymerizable alkyl cyanoacrylate composition, such that the wound dressing and cyanoacrylate composition seal the wound to inhibit bleeding and infection. The dressing may be in the form of a mitten. Also disclosed is injection of polymerizable cyanoacrylate into puncture wounds to seal the wounds and inhibit bleeding.
