Abstract

Body tissue and structures may be protected using a fluid containing a mixture of partially crosslinked polysaccharide and a further crosslinker. The mixture desirably is sprayable, forms a fluid protective layer via in situ crosslinking, desirably does not drip or run from a treatment site, and may avoid the use of more rapidly curing but potentially less bioacceptable crosslinkers at the treatment site.
