A REVIEW ON CRITERIA OF AN IDEAL INTERNAL BIOADHESIVE

  • Jyoti Trivedi

Abstract

Adhesive, the slang term for glue, has historically been defined as any material that can polymerize. In the last 30 years, bioadhesives like tissue adhesives, hemostatic agents, and tissue sealants have received increasing acceptance in numerous field of medicine processes. Owing to their application requirements, bioadhesives can be divided into internal and external ones. In topical drugs like wound repair and epidermal grafting, external bioadhesives are usually added. In intracorporeal environments of close interaction with the internal environment, involving tissues, organs and body fluids, internal bioadhesives are primarily utilized, like chronic organ leakage repair and prevention of bleeding complications. The emphasis of this analysis is on the requirements for the ideal internal bioadhesive, the physical, biological and chemical properties of the internal bioadhesive concept. This analysis summarises and examines the bioadhesive products of each class in terms of their toxicity, bonding efficiency, biodegradability, as well as their physical and mechanical properties.
