Biocompatible adhesive that is four times stronger than butyl cyanoacrylate and less toxic

Cyanoacrylate adhesives have been on the market since 1958. Most industrial or household grade cyanoacrylate is made of shorter alkyl chain derivatives such as methyl or ethyl cyanoacrylate (WPI #7341 and #7342).

Features

Bonds tissue
Use in place of sutures for small animal surgery
Blue dye for easy-to-see drop application
Antimicrobial effect
Use in forensic science
Butyl Cyanoacrylate
Low toxicity
Cures in < 10 seconds

Vetbond is an n-butyl Cyanoacrylate adhesive that quickly and conveniently closes minor wounds. It cures in seconds after contact with tissue and body fluids and binds wound edges together so natural healing can occur.

Compared with the traditional suture, vetbond adhesive has several advantages.

Close incisions in one-tenth of the time
Bonding strength is equal to 5-0 monofilament sutures
Antimicrobial effect that can decrease infection rates in contaminated wounds
Bonding sloughs off naturally in 5 to 7 days requiring no followup
Cosmetic appearance of the healed incision is also better

All of the cyanoacrylate low toxicity adhesives offered by WPI are veterinary grade. They are not suitable for human application. Though very similar to the grade for human use, they are not sterile and do not have FDA approval.
