02/01/2006 - "Hemostatic agents and tissue glues in urologic injuries and wound healing."
09/01/2004 - "Tissue glues and adhesives have achieved increasing popularity as alternatives to small wound closure. "
03/01/2001 - "Nonresorbable glues should be confined only to surface application, such as closure of the wound edges. "
07/01/1991 - "The optimum formulation of these glues measured by their effect on mechanical properties of healing wounds has not been determined. "

10/01/2013 - "Only smaller fistulas were amenable to glues and coils while there was recurrence in patients with larger air leaks requiring surgical intervention. "
05/01/2008 - "Biologic glues can be applied bronchoscopically to achieve endobronchial closure of the fistula less than 3 mm. Omentoplasty is useful for the fistula more than 3 mm."
01/01/2014 - "Although fibrin sealants (FSs) and fibrin glues (FGs) are predominantly utilized to strengthen repairs of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistulas (deliberate/traumatic) during spinal surgery, they are also increasingly utilized to achieve hemostasis. "
09/01/2010 - "Biological or synthetic glues, such as Glubran(®) 2, have been recently proposed for sealing the fistula tract. "
07/01/2008 - "Medline searches were performed using the PubMed, Ovid, Embase, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases to identify articles reporting on fistula-in-ano management using surgery alone, fibrin glues, and fistula plugs. "

01/01/2015 - "One of the documented favorable effects of these glues is to limit the risk of a surgical site infection by physically isolating the wound. "
02/01/2007 - "We conclude that the root cap, long known to release a high molecular weight polysaccharide mucilage and thousands of living cells into the incipient rhizosphere, also secretes a complex mixture of proteins that appear to function in protection of the root tip from infection."
01/01/1985 - "Currently available glues contain clotting factors from human plasma and thus carry the potential risk of transmitting viral infections like hepatitis or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). "
02/01/2010 - "Fibrin glues are widely used for various pulmonary operations, but commercially produced glues are made of heterogeneous fibrinogen that has infection risks. "
12/15/2000 - "The efficacy of salmon fibrin glues in a wound healing assay and the low antigenic response to salmon fibrinogen suggest that this material may substitute for proteins derived from mammalian sources with lower probability of infections."

04/01/2014 - "Harnessing the synergy between surface topography and reactive chemistry enables controlled tissue adhesion with an improved biocompatibility profile without requiring changes in the chemical composition of reactive tissue glues. "
01/01/2001 - "The APTT shortening determines a haemostatic effect and therefore contribute to the tissue adhesion induced by the glues. "
11/01/1993 - "Cyanoacrylate, the adhesive component of many commercially available strong-binding glues, has been used by the medical profession for various purposes, including tissue adhesion and repair, embolization, sclerotherapy, and hemostasis. "

08/01/2008 - "There is consensus around the fact that the removal of infected tissue promotes radical cleaning, and that the outcome of the treatment has been improved by the manufacture of biological glues which facilitate the closure of abscesses and by the creation of new valve replacements. "
