Abstract

Abstract A description is given of a one-component tissue adhesive containing, in aqueous solution, fibrinogen, F XIII, a thrombin inhibitor, prothrombin factors, calcium ions and, where appropriate, a plasmin inhibitor and of a process for the production thereof. This adhesive can be reconstituted from a freeze-dried form with water. It can contain all active substances in pasteurized form and is then free of the risk of transmission of hepatitis and HTLV III.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 87 words
A one component tissue adhesive in solid form having as active substances when reconstituted in 1 ml of solution: 65-115 mg of human fibrinogen, 40-80 U of factor XIII, 1-50 IU of PPSB (prothrombin factors) based on factor II (prothrombin), 0.01-50 IU of antithrombin III, 0.1-5 mmol/l of calcium ions, and 1-10,000 KIU of aprotinin, wherein the ratio of said active substances is such that there is no premature coagulation of said adhesive during preparation, and such that coagulation is initiated on contact with a wound surface.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 87 words
A one component tissue adhesive in solid form having as active substances when reconstituted in 1 ml of solution: 65-115 mg of human fibrinogen, 40-80 U of factor XIII, 1-50 IU of PPSB (prothrombin factors) based on factor II (prothrombin), 0.01-50 IU of antithrombin III, 0.1-5 mmol/l of calcium ions, and 1-10,000 KIU of aprotinin, wherein the ratio of said active substances is such that there is no premature coagulation of said adhesive during preparation, and such that coagulation is initiated on contact with a wound surface.
