  • Low sweel tissue adhesive and sealant formulations
    Patent number: 10207021
    Abstract: A hydrogel tissue adhesive formed by reacting an aldehyde-functionalized dextran containing pendant aldehyde groups with a multi-arm polyethylene glycol amine is described. The hydrogel exhibits little to no swell upon exposure to physiological conditions. The hydrogel may be useful as a tissue adhesive or sealant for medical applications that require a low swell hydrogel to inhibit complications, such as fibrosis, including scar formation or surgical adhesions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 12, 2017
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2019
    Assignee: Actamax Surgical Materials, LLC
