Inspired by barnacle glue and a spider web’s ability to adhere to wet, contaminated, and uneven surfaces, our team has developed breakthrough bioadhesive technology that can be applied and is biocompatible. Using safe synthetic and plant-driven biomaterials, we are able to create bioadhesives in many forms that can be used in numerous applications.
Barnacle’s capability to clean and adhere to contaminated surfaces:
Spider web’s capability to instantly dry and adhere on wet surfaces:
Bioadhesive paste for rapid and coagulation-independent control of hemorrhage
Bioadhesive patch for rapid and fluid-/air-tight seal of organ injuries
How it Works
SanaHeal’s bioadhesives are designed to repel contaminants and absorb excess moisture from the surface, allowing the adhesive to come in direct contact with the biological tissues. Once the bioadhesive contacts the tissue it swells, absorbing water and forming physical and chemical bonds to create a near-instant air- and liquid-tight seal.
Advantages
Our material can overcome excessive body fluids and moisture to create an instant and strong adhesion that can be applied to the most difficult clinical and biological settings. The material used in our next generation bioadhesive technology does not rely on any biological response to adhere to wet tissue, rapidly and robustly.
