Laser Assisted Tissue Welding for Soft Tissue Wound Closure

Conversion Energy Enterprises
  • Technology Description

    Conversion Energy Enterprises (CEE) has developed a light activated biomaterial that bonds to soft tissue, is transparent and flexible. It conforms to the tissue surface because film thickness can be accurately controlled (100 - 1000 µm), is reabsorbable, reduces operating time because of a fast curing cycle and has low antigenic properties.

  • Value Proposition

    CEE has a novel, proprietary, biocompatible, laser activated tissue adhesive that can be used as an alternative to sutures/staples. Compared to existing tissue adhesives and sealants, CEE’s adhesive has improved adhesive strength and is easy to apply. Adhesion is achieved by laser exposure within msec’s. The resulting bond is optically clear, making it ideal for both open and laparoscopic indications.
