| Feature |
Benefit |
| No contact with wound
is necessary when applying Histoacryl®, allowing
for less traumatic wound closure. |
Improved patient comfort and
less risk of disrupting wound edges. |
| Histoacryl® seals
quickly and polymerizes in just 30 seconds.
|
Significantly faster wound closure
than sutures as well as other legally marketed
skin adhesives. |
| Only a single layer of
adhesive is necessary to achieve a full strength
bond. |
Cost effective and saves time. |
| Histoacryl® sloughs
off naturally in 7 to 10 days. A follow-up visit
for suture removal is not required. |
Increased patient convenience
and reduced physician time. |
| Histoacryl® acts
as a barrier to microbial penetration as long
as the protective adhesive film remains intact.
The microbial barrier properties were demonstrated
by in-vitro studies. |
Seals out common forms of bacteria
that may cause infection. |
| Applying light pressure
to the ampoule dispenses adhesive accurately.
Histoacryl® may be applied as minute drops
or as a thin film along the edges of the wound.
|
Precise, controlled, non-clogging,
easy-to-use ampoule. |
| Histoacryl® polymerizes
when exposed to water or water containing substances
like human tissue. Unlike other legally marketed
skin adhesives, Histoacryl® will not clog
or dry out when opened. |
Less product is discarded and
one ampoule is often all that is needed for an
entire procedure. |
| State of the art membrane
filtration technology is used to sterilize Histoacryl®.
As a result, no stabilizers are necessary.
|
Histoacryl® is the purest
medical grade cyanoacrylate adhesive on the market
with the fastest setting time and the greatest
tensile strength. |
| Histoacryl® has been
utilized for wound closure for over 40 years with
more than 1000 clinical publications worldwide.
|
Histoacryl® is the proven
choice for wound closure. |
