Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to tissue adhesives or sealants, more specifically to fibrinogen based sealants reinforced with particulate material and chemically cross-linked. More particularly, the present invention is directed to tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material containing thrombin, fibrinogen, a biocompatible particulate material having amine functionality, and a biocompatible polymer containing aldehyde groups. The present invention is also directed to methods for the use of such materials.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

I claim: 1. A tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material, wherein said tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material is a two-part system comprising a first solution and a second solution, comprising: thrombin, fibrinogen, a biocompatible particulate material having amine functionality, said biocompatible particulate material is atelocollagen a biocompatible polymer containing aldehyde groups, wherein said biocompatible polymer is oxidized dextran or polyvinyl alcohol acetoacetate; and a catalyst, wherein said first solution comprises thrombin, biocompatible particulate material, and the biocompatible polymer; wherein said second solution comprises fibrinogen and the catalyst; and wherein said catalyst is DABCO. 2. The tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material of claim 1 , wherein the biocompatible polymer containing aldehyde groups is oxidized dextran. 3. The tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material of claim 2 , wherein the biocompatible particulate material is atelocollagen, and wherein the biocompatible polymer containing aldehyde groups is oxidized dextran. 4. The tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material of claim 3 , wherein said first solution comprises thrombin, atelocollagen, and oxidized dextran and wherein said second solution comprises fibrinogen and DABCO. 5. The tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material of claim 4 , wherein concentration of atelocollagen is about 2%; particle size of atelocollagen is less than 100 micron; concentration of oxidized dextran is about 10% by volume, and the molecular weight of oxidized dextran is between about 10,000 and 100,000. 6. The tissue sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding material of claim 5 , wherein said first solution and said second solution are sprayed substantially simultaneously or sequentially on the tissue to form sealant, adhesive, hemostat, or scaffolding.
