Abstract

Kits comprising dry power compositions are provided that readily crosslink in situ to provide crosslinked biomaterials. The dry powder composition contains at least two biocompatible, non-immunogenic components having reactive groups thereon, with the functional groups selected so as to enable inter-reaction between the components, i.e., crosslinking. Exemplary uses for the crosslinked biomaterials include tissue augmentation, biologically active agent delivery, bioadhesion, and prevention of adhesions following surgery or injury.
