Details

Vetbond is an n-butyl Cyanoacrylate adhesive that quickly and conveniently closes minor wounds. It cures in seconds after contact with tissue and body fluids and binds wound edges together so natural healing can occur.

Compared with the traditional suture, vetbond adhesive has several advantages.

  • Close incisions in one-tenth of the time
  • Bonding strength is equal to 5-0 monofilament sutures
  • Antimicrobial effect that can decrease infection rates in contaminated wounds
  • Bonding sloughs off naturally in 5 to 7 days requiring no followup
  • Cosmetic appearance of the healed incision is also better

All of the cyanoacrylate low toxicity adhesives offered by WPI are veterinary grade. They are not suitable for human application. Though very similar to the grade for human use, they are not sterile and do not have FDA approval.
