SurgiSeal®

SurgiSeal® Topical Skin Adhesive is high purity, antimicrobial, liquid topical skin adhesive that can replace sutures for incision or laceration repair.

SurgiSeal® is the only topical skin adhesive in the world to receive FDA 510K Clearance in demonstrating inhibition of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria growth.[1]

In-vitro studies have shown that gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria do not proliferate within the SurgiSeal® adhesive. Moreover, SurgiSeal® demonstrates a log reduction of greater than 7 in organisms including Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus Epidermidis, Corynebacterium Pseudodiphtheriticum, Klebsiella Pneumoniae, Escherichia Coli and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa.

SurgiSeal® Topical Skin Adhesive provides the optimal balance between strength and flexibility. In replacing sutures for incision or laceration repair, it can save time, provide a flexible, water-resistant, protective coating, and eliminate the need for suture removal.

Microbial Barrier
SurgiSeal adhesive creates a microbial barrier by inhibiting bacteria from entering the wound and reducing the chance of infection.

Water Resistant Protection
SurgiSeal adhesive is water resistant after application, allowing patients to shower the same day as the procedure.

Desirable Cosmetic Outcome
Clinical studies demonstrate positive cosmetic results for 2-octyl cyanoacrylate over sutures, eliminating “railroad track” scarring.

In our in-vitro laboratory studies, SurgiSeal® Topical Skin Adhesive yielded the highest average wound closure strength, which measures the ability of an adhesive to maintain approximation of wound edges [4,5]

SurgiSeal® adhesive, due to a longer alkyl chain, has demonstrated greater flexibility in in-vitro testing than n-butyl cyanoacrylate (BCA) products, in terms of the ability of the adhesive to not crack when subjected to bending in the immediate post-operative period [6]

In-house in-vitro laboratory testing demonstrates each 0.5ml applicator of SurgiSeal Stylus™ adhesive excels compared to a 0.5ml applicator of another currently marketed adhesive. Moreover, surface area coverage of a SurgiSeal Stylus™ adhesive applicator is more than twice that of the leading competitor’s 0.5ml applicator (29.7in2 vs. 11.5in2) [7]
