“…The in-situ crosslinking processes and swelling behavior of fibrin glue were found to be challenging for the hydrated tissue environment [ 7 ]. Tissue adhesives need to be able to bond both natural materials and synthetic films for applications involving implantable biosensors and drug depots [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ]. Formation of covalent bonds between thin film or hydrogel adhesive formulations and soft tissue substrates is a promising strategy to achieve a reliable adhesion strength [ 3 , 15 , 16 , 19 ].…”
