Combined Surface Micropatterning and Reactive Chemistry Maximizes Tissue Adhesion with Minimal Inflammation

The use of tissue adhesives for internal clinical applications is limited due to a lack of materials that balance strong adhesion with biocompatibility. The use of substrate topography is explored to reduce the volume of a highly reactive and toxic glue without compromising adhesive strength. Micro-...
