The present invention relates to a method for the formulation of fibrin sealant in a single delivery system. The method involves mixing a fibrinogen/Factor XIII precipitate solution with thrombin under conditions such that thrombin clotting activity is inhibited and said mixture is applied to a body site under conditions which activate the thrombin to convert fibrinogen into fibrin sealant. A single device, syringe or container, can be used to apply the fibrin sealant formulation. |
