Sealantis Ltd., a private start-up,\u00a0from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology that develops alga-mimetic tissue adhesives, reports that it has received the CE Mark for Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup>, its vascular sealant. Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup> is a protein-free bioresorbable sealant, intended to achieve hemostasis by mechanically sealing areas of potential leakage in surgical reconstruction of large blood vessels such as the carotid, femoral, brachial and iliac arteries.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup> commences a new generation in tissue sealing. Being alga-mimetic it has an intrinsic ability to bind strongly to both native blood vessels and synthetic grafts, even in wet and moist conditions. In addition, the protein-free composition relieves Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup> from risks associated with the use of protein-based products. Unlike hemostats, which are designed to cause blood to clot, Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup> is not dependent on the presence of blood in order to be effective, and can be used as a prophylactic sealant.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;We are excited to be able to introduce Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup> to the European market and to provide surgeons with a new and better option for controlling bleeding from suture-lines.&#8221; says Mr. Tomer Fuchs, Sealantis CEO. Mr. Fuchs recently joined Sealantis, after serving over two decades in lead executive positions in global companies including Medtronic Ventor, Anorad and Vishay.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Sealantis has been working closely with surgeons to leverage the extraordinary capabilities of its alga-mimetic technology and design products that will be strongly positioned in the multibillion dollars market of wound closure.&#8221; Says Dr. Zeev Gilkis, Sealantis Chairman.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In addition to Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup>, Sealantis has a pipeline of advanced solutions for a variety of clinical needs. Among them is a gastro-intestinal sealant, designed to prevent leakage of intestinal content from anastomoses, a potentially fatal complication of GI surgery; an adhesive for space obliteration in esthetic surgeries, which can significantly reduce the recovery time from face and body lifts and innovative combination devices for site-specific drug delivery.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Sealantis is currently working on strategic partnerships towards the coming market launch of Seal-V<sup>TM<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>About Sealantis Ltd.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Sealantis Ltd. is developing a proprietary platform of alga-mimetic tissue adhesives, for a variety of applications and clinical needs in surgical leakage control, tissue adhesion and drug delivery.
