Abstract
Described herein are compositions composed of a radiopaque agent and a cyanoacrylate monomer. These compositions cure in situ when administered to a subject and, thus, have numerous biomedical applications. The presence of the radiopaque agent allows the practitioner to visualize the compositions during and immediately after administration to the subject. The compositions are non-toxic and shelf-stable, and can be sterilized to prevent microbial growth. The compositions can be pre-mixed prior to sale and distribution, reducing the need for special training in their use.
