Abstract

A tissue adhesive in lyophilized form contains at least one biologically compatible tenside beside fibrinogen and factor XIII and optionally further proteins as well as adjuvants or additives. The presence of these biologically compatible tensides was found to shorten the reconstitution times of lyophilized tissue adhesive preparations without negatively affecting the biochemical, mechanical or biological properties of the preparation or of the tibrin formed therefrom.
