Millpledge has launched Dermafuse Tissue Adhesive, an n-butyl cyanoacrylate medical adhesive used to bond tissue together following veterinary procedures.

Dermafuse contains a blue dye to help users see where product has been applied.

On contact with body tissue, Dermafuse changes from liquid to solid state by polymerizing within seconds to seal the wound.

Millpledge says the adhesive stops minor bleeding and binds wound edges, which may eliminate the need for sutures or bandages. In some instances it also acts as a barrier to keep foreign matter from entering the wound. The tissue adhesive is sloughed as healing occurs.

Each 3g bottle contains approximately 175 drops. Four sterile applicator tips are provided with each pack.
