Abstract

A device for dispensing at least two mutually reactive components, such as fibrinogen and thrombin, comprising a supplier (12A, 12B) having a primary channel for supplying a respective one of said at least two reactive components to a dispenser (14) having secondary channels (18A, 18B) for separately discharging said components at a distal end orifice thereof opening into a target area for external intimate mixing of the respective reactive components outside a distal tip end of said dispenser (14). A distributor (38, 40) is interposed between said supplier and said dispenser for multiplying the number of the respective primary channels with at least a factor 2. Adjacent ones of said secondary channels (18A, 18B) are adjoined to primary channels (32, 34) intended for supply of reactive components of different kind.
