Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a two-component tissue adhesive having high adhesive strength and high biocompatibility; and a method for producing the two-component tissue adhesive. The present invention involves a two-component tissue adhesive comprising hydrophobically-modified gelatin as a first agent and a cross-linking reagent as a second agent. The hydrophobically-modified gelatin is provided with an amino group and a hydrophobic group on the side chain thereof, and the cross-linking reagent has two or more active ester groups or anhydrides within a single molecule.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A two-component tissue adhesive composition consisting of a hydrophobically-modified gelatin comprising at least one hydrophobic cholesteryl group linked to lysine residue side chains of polypeptide of said gelatin; and a cross-linking reagent that is disuccinimidyl tartrate; wherein ratio of succinimidyl group within said disuccinimidyl tartrate to amino group of said lysine residue are between 1:1 and 2:1, molecular weight of said gelatin is between 10 KDa and about 20 KDa; and wherein adhesive strength of said composition is at least 50 kPa. 2. The two-component tissue adhesive according to claim 1 , wherein said first agent further contains gelatin which is any one type or a combination of two or more types selected from the group consisting of natural gelatin derived from human, porcine, bovine, or fish species, and genetically modified gelatin thereof.
