Methods of forming a connective tissue-to-bone interface scaffolds (e.g., ligament-to-bone interface scaffolds, tendon-to-bone interface scaffolds, etc.). These scaffolds (grafts) may be formed from in such a way as to provide both a mineralized and demineralized layer in which the entire graft is flexible, compressible and compliant.

Methods of forming bone interface scaffolds

A swallow challenge medium is thixotropic for easy swallowing and to provide enough viscosity for effective challenge to peristalsis and has high ionic density for effective impedance measurements by contact with electrodes positioned in a person's esophagus or oropharynx during swallow testing. The medium also has a high surface tension so as not to adhere to or coat the electrodes or probe surfaces. These physical characteristics are stabilized and consistent enough to provide standard for esophageal and/or oropharyngeal function testing and diagnostics.

Method of esophageal function testing with a standardized thixotropic swallow challenge medium

Medical adhesive may be removed by applying a solution including tetrahydrofurfuryl acetate (THFA) to the surface upon which is located the adhesive and rubbing the surface to facilitate removal of the adhesive. The solution may be applied to a wipe before application to the surface and the wipe may be used to rub the surface. The surface may be living or dead human or animal skin, hard surfaces and medical instruments. Various additional ingredients may be added to the solution, like perfumes, emollients and other commonly known skin products and polymer diluents.

Disclosed are methods and formulations for the treatment or prevention of infections on mammalian tissues such as skin. Specifically, the methods of this invention involve the in situ formation of a polymeric cyanoacrylate film containing mixed antibiotics over mammalian tissue.

Durable multi-component antibiotic formulation for topical use

The present invention provides methods and compositions for promoting wound healing and reducing scar formation. In particular, the present invention provides cyanoacrylate polymer sealants formulated to contain biologically active elemental silver and/or insulin. The invention also provides methods and compositions for delivering silver and/or insulin in combination with cyanoacrylate sealants. In particular, the present invention provides methods and compositions suitable for treatment of wounds in diabetics, normal patients and surgical patients.

Compositions and methods for promoting wound healing

Disclosed are methods for sterilizing cyanoacrylate prepolymer compositions under visible light irradiation conditions wherein the prepolymer remains in polymerizable form after sterilization.

Methods for sterilizing cyanoacrylate compositions

Disclosed are methods and compositions capable of rapidly preparing mammalian tissue and organs for harvesting and subsequent transplantation while minimizing the potential for infection of the harvested tissues and organs. This invention is also directed to methods and compositions used to prepare the donor for subsequent handling by a mortician.

Methods and compositions to enable the safe and effective harvesting of tissues and organs

Disclosed are methods for treating burns on mammalian skin to reduce the risk of infection and to minimize fluid loss. Specifically, the methods of this invention involve the in situ formation of a polymeric cyanoacrylate film at the site of the burn. The cyanoacrylate film acts as a barrier inhibiting the introduction of pathogens (e.g., bacteria) into the burn area and as a barrier for the loss of fluids.

Methods for treating burns on mammalian skin to reduce the risk of infection and to minimize fluid loss

Disclosed are kits of parts comprising a first container comprising a cyanoacrylate composition and a second container comprising a compatible antimicrobial agent and, in particular, a compatible iodine containing antimicrobial agent. Mixture of these compositions provide for in situ formation of an antimicrobial polymeric cyanoacrylate film on mammalian skin.

Kits containing cyanoacrylate compositions comprising an antimicrobial agent

Disclosed are cyanoacrylate compositions comprising a cyanoacrylate prepolymer and an encapsulated temperature sensitive indicator. These compositions provide for in situ formation of an polymeric cyanoacrylate film on mammalian skin which can be used to monitor the surface skin temperature of the mammal.

Cyanoacrylate compositions comprising an indicator

Disclosed are methods for sterilizing cyanoacrylate prepolymer compositions under E-beam irradiation conditions wherein the prepolymer remains in polymerizable form after sterilization.

Antimicrobial cyanoacrylate compositions are applied to suturable wound surfaces to close the wound surface.

Methods for closing suturable wounds by use of cyanoacrylate ester compositions comprising an antimicrobial agent

Disclosed are biocompatible prepolymer compositions comprising a compatible antimicrobial agent and, in particular, a compatible iodine containing antimicrobial agent. These compositions provide for in situ formation of an antimicrobial polymeric film on mammalian skin.
