Approaches have been developed to apply multicomponent medical adhesives that improve binding of the medical adhesive (106) to a substrate (104) having covalently bound adhesive components. Use of the multicomponent adhesive reduces the possibility of adverse effects due to the adhesive leaving the application site. In preferred approaches, the application of the adhesive leads to increased bond strengths. The medical adhesive (106) and/or the substrate (104) can be bioresorbable. |
