Abstract
The invention relates to a dispenser of a sealant for hemostasis comprising a container configured to receive a fibrinogen solution and an activation compartment being situated downstream of the container and comprising a functionalized support to which a coagulation factor, preferably thrombin, is immobilized, such that upon dispensing the fibrinogen solution it passes through the activation compartment, thereby generating and dispensing polymerizing fibrin as a sealant. The invention further relates to a support, exchangeable tip and a kit for the dispenser as well as to methods and uses of the dispenser or components thereof for dispensing a sealant to a desired site.
