When looking for a low-toxicity adhesive with some elasticity and good moisture resistance, a silicone adhesive is particularly suitable. These work well with living tissue, as they are non-toxic, fast curing and able to adhere to organic and inorganic surfaces.

Coherent Scientific has now introduced the sterile KWIK-SIL and KWIK-CAST silicone adhesives from World Precision Instruments (WPI). The sterile versions of these adhesives are suitable for laboratories that cannot sterilise KWIK-CAST/KWIK-SIL in their facilities.

The properties of the biocompatible surgical adhesives make them useful for neuroscience applications, peripheral nerve studies and similar biomedical applications. The silicone elastomers also eliminate the mess and time involved in pre-mixing other commonly used formulations.
