Abstract
In recent years, polymer-based tissue adhesives (TAs) have been developed as an alternative to sutures to close and seal incisions or wounds owing to their ease of use, rapid application time, low cost, and minimal tissue damage. Although significant research is being conducted to develop new TAs with improved performances using different strategies, the applications of TAs are limited by several factors, such as weak adhesion strength and poor mechanical properties. Therefore, the next-generation advanced TAs with biomimetic and multifunctional properties should be developed. Herein, we review the requirements, adhesive performances, characteristics, adhesive mechanisms, applications, commercial products, and advantages and disadvantages of proteins- and synthetic polymer-based TAs. Furthermore, future perspectives in the field of TA-based research have been discussed.

Abstract
Bioadhesives are medical devices used to join or seal tissues that have been injured or incised. They have been classified into tissue adhesives, sealants, and hemostatic agents. Bioadhesives such as FloSeal®, CoSeal®, BioGlue®, Evicel®, Tisseel®, Progel™ PALS, and TissuGlu® have been commercialized and used in clinical setting. They can be formulated with natural or synthetic components or a combination of both including albumin, glutaraldehyde, chitosan, cyanoacrylate, fibrin and thrombin, gelatin, polyethylene glycol (PEG), along with urethanes. Each formulation has intrinsic properties and has been developed and validated for a specific application. This review article briefs the mechanisms by which bioadhesives forms adhesion to tissues and highlights the correlation between bioadhesives composition and their potential host responses. Furthermore, clinical applications of bioadhesives and their application-driven requirements are outlined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue adhesives are an alternative to conventional surgical sutures to reduce the time and cost of wound closure and to improve patient comfort. The use of tissue adhesives does not require any subsequent intervention and significantly lowers the volume and rate of blood loss, and reduces the need for transfusions during and after surgery. However, based on their formulation, tissue adhesives' safety profile and functional properties may differ. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the basic safety and performance of NE'X Glue® Surgical Sealant, BioGlue® Surgical Sealant, and PREVELEAKTM Surgical Sealant in vitro. METHODS The basic safety of commercially available tissue adhesives was evaluated using MEM elution assay according to ISO 10993-5 and endotoxin level according to 85. USP. The in vitro performance was evaluated using lap-shear by tension loading test, burst strength test, degradation, and swelling assays. RESULTS NE'X Glue®, BioGlue®, and PREVELEAKTM did not cause cytotoxicity in MEM elution assay. All surgical adhesives are below the general limit of endotoxin contamination of 20 EU/device. NE'X Glue® and BioGlue® showed the highest and comparable strength properties in lap shear and burst strength tests compared to PREVELEAKTM. NE'X Glue® and PREVELEAKTM are characterized by lower degradation potential than BioGlue®. PREVELEAKTM is characterized by the highest swelling when compared to NE'X Glue® and BioGlue®. CONCLUSIONS NE'X Glue® is most versatile in terms of functional properties while maintaining the same safety profile as BioGlue® and PREVELEAKTM.

Abstract
Hemostatic biomaterials show great promise in wound control for the treatment of uncontrolled bleeding associated with damaged tissues, traumatic wounds, and surgical incisions. A surge of interest has been directed at boosting hemostatic properties of bioactive materials via mechanisms triggering the coagulation cascade. A wide variety of biocompatible and biodegradable materials has been applied to the design of hemostatic platforms for rapid blood coagulation. Recent trends in the design of hemostatic agents emphasize chemical conjugation of charged moieties to biomacromolecules, physical incorporation of blood-coagulating agents in biomaterials systems, and superabsorbing materials in either dry (foams) or wet (hydrogel) states. In addition, tough bioadhesives are emerging for efficient and physical sealing of incisions. In this Review, we highlight the biomacromolecular design approaches adopted to develop hemostatic bioactive materials. We discuss the mechanistic pathways of hemostasis along with the current standard experimental procedures for characterization of the hemostasis efficacy. Finally, we discuss the potential for clinical translation of hemostatic technologies, future trends, and research opportunities for the development of next-generation surgical materials with hemostatic properties for wound management.

Abstract
In the last few years, the use of tissue adhesives in corneal perforation has gained immense popularity in clinical practices. The present study aimed to devise a new application of urocanic-acid-modified chitosan (CS) with methylene blue (MB) as a photosensitizer for the development of a photo-crosslinked tissue adhesive. In particular, the curing time was controlled with the aid of a 650 nm red diode. Under the same irradiation condition, the mechanical properties were tuned using the photosensitizer at different concentrations. In vitro tests revealed that the gel was ductile and biocompatible. The application of the gel to a perforated cornea model stopped the leakage of aqueous humor, immediately after the gel was photo-crosslinked. The blue appearance of the gel provided high precision when applied to corneal wounds. Importantly, the crosslinked gel became transparent within 24 h, owing to the dissipation of MB from tears, and the gel spontaneously sloughed off without artificial removal. Altogether, the study reported the development of a novel photo-crosslinkable urocanic-acid-modified CS gel that exhibited significant potential to be utilized in the healing of corneal perforation.

Abstract
AbstractIn this work, a double network bovine serum albumin-polyacrylamide (BSA-PAM) adhesive hydrogel was fabricated, in which combination of physical interactions including hydrogen bonds and chain entanglements, and chemical covalent photo-crosslinking. The BSA-PAM hydrogel exhibited excellent mechanical and adhesive properties. The composite hydrogel not only demonstrated excellent tensile properties (maximum force elongation 1552%~2037%), but also displayed extremely high fatigue resistance even when subjected to compress strains of up to 85%. More importantly, the BSA-PAM hydrogel showed excellent adhesiveness to various substrates (90 kPa~150 kPa for glass and 9.74 kPa~35.09 kPa for pigskin). This work provided a facile way of fabricating tough, stretchable and adhesive BSA-PAM hydrogels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improvements in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) in order to minimize perioperative warm ischemia time (WIT), complications, and consequently patient outcome are desirable. Veriset™ is a ready-to-use hemostatic patch of absorbable oxidized cellulose and hydrogel components that has earlier been implemented in vascular and hepatic surgery. We report our experience using this device in LPN. METHODS Patients with a solitary malignant renal mass suspicious for renal cancer underwent LPN with either the use of Veriset™ hemostatic patch (n = 40) or conventional suture technique (n = 40). Patient characteristics, operation time and WIT, postoperative course and complications were recorded retrospectively. Tumor complexity was calculated according to the R.E.N.A.L. score. Outcome was determined according to the "trifecta" criteria (negative surgical margin, WIT < 25 min, no complications within 30 days). RESULTS No significant differences with regard to clinical parameters and median R.E.N.A.L. score (6) were observed between both groups. Operation time (mean 127.1 min vs. 162. 8 min; p = 0.001) and WIT were both lower in the Veriset™ group (14.6 min vs. 20.6 min; p = 0.01). No differences in surgical margins (p = 0.602) and overall complication rates at 30 (p = 0.599) and 90 days (p = 0.611) postoperatively were noticed. The surgical outcome according to "trifecta" was achieved in 65% of patients using Veriset™ and in 57.5% of patients by suture closure, respectively. CONCLUSION The hemostatic Veriset™ patch can successfully be implemented in LPN. Handling and application appear favorable, thereby reducing operation time and WIT. The present results suggest that the device may represent an alternative to parenchyma suturing in LPN.

Abstract
Tissue adhesives have been developed for sealing tissue damaged in surgery. Among these, sheet-type adhesives require a relatively long time to adhere to biological tissue under wet conditions. To address this clinical problem, we fabricated a tissue-adhesive fiber sheet (AdFS) based on decanyl group (C10) modified Alaska pollock-derived gelatin (C10-ApGltn) using electrospinning. Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of the AdFS was performed to increase the affinity between the AdFS and wet biological tissue by introducing hydrophilic functional groups. The UV irradiated AdFS (UV-C10-AdFS) strongly adhered to porcine pleura within 2 min under wet conditions and showed higher burst strength compared with the original ApGltn (Org-ApGltn) sheet. Hematoxylin-eosin stained sections revealed that a dense UV-C10-AdFS layer remained on the surface of the porcine pleura even after burst strength measurement. Moreover, UV-C10-AdFS has excellent cytocompatibility and efficiently supports the growth of L929 cells. UV-C10-AdFS is a promising adhesive material for sealing wet biological tissue.

Abstract
Protein-based adhesives could have several advantages over petroleum-derived alternatives, including substantially lower toxicity, smaller environmental footprint, and renewable sourcing. Here, we report that non-covalently crosslinked bovine serum albumin and recombinant spider silk proteins have high adhesive strength on glass (8.53 and 6.28 MPa, respectively) and other transparent substrates. Moreover, the adhesives have high visible transparency and showed no apparent degradation over a period of several months. The mechanism of adhesion was investigated and primarily attributed to dehydration-induced reorganization of protein secondary structure, resulting in the supramolecular association of β-sheets into a densely hydrogen-bonded network.

Abstract
Introduction: Traditional mechanical closure techniques pose many challenges including the risk of infection, tissue reaction, and injury to both patients and clinicians. There is an urgent need to develop tissue adhesive agents to reform closure technique. This review examined a variety of tissue adhesive agents available in the market in an attempt to gain a better understanding of intracorporal tissue adhesive agents as medical devices.Areas covered: Fundamental principles and clinical determinants of the tissue adhesives were summarized. The available tissue adhesives for intracorporal use and their relevant clinical evidence were then presented. Lastly, the perspective of future development for intracorporal tissue adhesive were discussed. Clinical evidence shows current agents are efficacious as adjunctive measures to mechanical closure and these agents have been trialed outside of clinical indications with varied results.Expert opinion: Despite some advancements in the development of tissue adhesives, there is still a demand to develop novel technologies in order to address unmet clinical needs, including low tensile strength in wet conditions, non-controllable polimerization and sub-optimal biocompatibility. Research trends focus on producing novel adhesive agents to remit these challenges. Examples include the development of biomimetic adhesives, externally activated adhesives, and multiple crosslinking strategies. Economic feasibility and biosafety are limiting factors for clinical implementation.

Abstract
Tissue adhesives have emerged as an effective method for wound closure and hemostasis in recent decades, due to their ability to bond tissues together, preventing separation from one tissue to another. However, existing tissue adhesives still have several limitations. Tremendous efforts have been invested into developing new tissue adhesives by improving upon existing adhesives through different strategies. Therefore, highlighting and analyzing these design strategies are essential for developing the next generation of advanced adhesives. To this end, we reviewed the available strategies for modifying traditional adhesives (including cyanoacrylate glues, fibrin sealants and BioGlue), as well as design of emerging adhesives (including gelatin sealants, methacrylated sealants and bioinspired adhesives), focusing on their structures, adhesive mechanisms, advantages, limitations, and current applications. The bioinspired adhesives have numerous advantages over traditional adhesives, which will be a wise direction for achieving tissue adhesives with superior properties.

Abstract
Over the past few years, the role of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RPN) has exponentially grown. Multiple recognized factors contribute to postoperative renal function in patients undergoing RPN. The aim of this review is to identify these potential factors, and to evaluate strategies that may help optimize the goal of renal function preservation. A nonsystematic literature review was performed to retrieve the most recent evidence on factors contributing to renal function post-RPN. Analyzed elements include baseline factors (tumor complexity and patient characteristics), intraoperative (surgical) factors (control of the renal hilum and type of ischemia, resection technique, renorrhaphy technique), and pharmacotherapeutics. In conclusion, the advantages of robotic surgery in the setting of partial nephrectomy (PN) are becoming well established. Maximal preservation of renal function remains a priority goal of the procedure, and it is influenced by a plethora of factors. Adequate patient selection using radiomics, control of comorbidities, utilization of evidence-based intraoperative techniques/strategies, and postoperative care are key components of postoperative preservation of renal function. Further investigations regarding these factors and their effects on long-term renal function are necessary and will continue to aid in guiding appropriate patient care.

Abstract
The use of sutures is still the most widely practiced solution for wound closure and tissue reconstruction; however, scarring is a common defect resulting from sutures on topical use. In some cases, the conventional sutures are unable to seal the sites where fluid and air leakage could occur. Tissue adhesives though have lower tensile strength than sutures, may make scarless surgery possible, or prevent fluid and air leakage. A product called BioGlue® (CryoLife Inc, Kennesaw, GA, USA), based on bovine serum albumin (BSA, a protein) and glutaraldehyde (GTA, crosslinker), has been approved for clinical use in the USA. Whey protein, a byproduct of cheese-making, comprised mainly of β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin and BSA. Even though the molecular weight of BSA is about three times larger than the molecular of β-lactoglobulin and α-lactalbumin, all three proteins are rich in free ε-amino groups (can react with GTA) and globular proteins. This similarity make whey protein a potential candidate to replace BSA in the tissue adhesive since whey protein is abundant and much cheaper than BSA. In this study, whey protein isolate (WPI) was used as a protein polymer with GTA as a crosslinker to evaluate the feasibility of whey protein for tissue adhesive formulation. Results showed that the WPI/GTA adhesive exhibited a comparable adhesive strength to BioGlue® control.
