Researchers at the University of Akron have revealed the evolutionary strength of spider web glue. Published in the May 17, 2010, issue of Nature Communications, the research revealed that the effectiveness and strength of the spider web glue ensues from the highly entangled, cross-linked polymers in each droplet of the glue, which enables the adhesive [...]
Diverse technologies have a surprising number of common threads, whether in the technologies themselves or in the clinical applications. For this reason, manufacturers need to consider that: 1. A technology platform can be the launchpad for products in clinically diverse areas. Case in point, cell therapy, which as a fundamental scientific discipline can have uses [...]
A useful starting point for determining which adjunctive surgical closure and securement products are appropriate for different wound healing treatments is to recognize the major distinction between different wound types. Surgical wounds are usually appropriate for treatment with adjunctive surgical closure and securement products because they are created under clean conditions, the usual acute healing [...]

Wound management encompasses a wide range of products: fabric dressings, first aid dressings, dressings and internal wound management products for surgery, advanced wound management products, active pharmaceutical wound care products, tissue engineering, physical therapies for wound care, and pressure [...]
Each structural element of tissue contributes to the healing process; adjunctive surgical closure and securement products can be used to enhance, support and strengthen these natural processes. Skin closure is a factor in all the procedures discussed in this report (report #S175), since optimizing closure of skin incisions is an important aspect of all internal [...]
From Report #S245, “Wound Management, 2007-2016: Established and Emerging Products, Technologies and Markets in the U.S., Europe, Japan and Rest of World,” published by MedMarket Diligence, LLC (November 2007). Wound types fall into four general categories — surgical, traumatic, burns, and chronic — yet there is a wide variety of specific types, with different prevalence [...]
The formation of medical technology companies has proceeded at a steady pace over the past few years. These largely device-intensive companies are pursuing a range of clinical applications that is progressively more diverse, encompassing materials science, application of various hybrid technologies and, ultimately, often dissolving boundaries between devices, diagnostics, biotech, pharma and other traditional product [...]
