Abstract
A method for preventing adhesion utilizes a viscoelastic gel formed from xanthan gum. The gel is more viscous than blood and is soluble in aqueous solutions. The gel is placed between the tissues by a syringe. The method includes mixing the xanthan gum with either a saline solution or Tyrode's solution to form the gel.
