Bio Glue: Precision Repair for Retinal & Brain Tissues
Bio Glue for High-Precision Repair of Neuronal Tissue
Tags: The University of Sydney, Australia, Healthcare & Lifesciences
This protein-based bio glue is designed for high-precision repair of neuronal tissues, addressing challenges in conditions like retinal detachment and traumatic brain injuries (TBI). It offers exceptional biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and in situ cross-linking for robust adherence to delicate tissues, improving surgical outcomes. Applications include retinal tear repair, macular hole treatment, brain tissue repair, and targeted drug delivery. The technology promises enhanced healing, reduced complications, and versatility for neurosurgical applications. A provisional patent secures this innovation, making it a transformative solution for ophthalmology and neurology.
