BioGlue Syringe

CryoLife’s BioGlue Syringe is a self-contained, easy-to-use, disposable delivery system. The pre-filled device is available in 2mL, 5mL, and 10mL volumes. BioGlue delivery options include a size range of Standard Applicator Tips, Spreader Tips and Distal Tip Extenders.

The two components are mixed within the applicator tip and dispensed by a controlled delivery system. When cross-linking begins in the applicator tip, BioGlue becomes a protein hydrogel. When applied to the surgical site, BioGlue creates a robust, flexible, mechanical seal independent of the body’s clotting mechanism.
