title: [Bacteriostatic behavior of the tissue adhesive Fimomed (n-butyl-alpha-cyanoacrylate].
abstract: The tissue adhesive Fimomed (made in GDR), which is supplied in a non-sterilised form, was tested for its bacteriostatic behaviour. No such behaviour was found for Gram-negative bacteria, so that in view of the typical microorganisme occurring in hospitals sterilisation of the adhesive by means of gamma rays or an aseptic filling by the manufacturers is suggested.
