Abstract
The aim of this experimental study was to measure the rupture stress p oint of a fibrin clot situated on a liver, in realistic surgical condi tions. The experimental method was carried out with a machined wooden cylinder bonded on the liver, connected with a wire to a setup and pul led at a constant speed, and a sensor was placed on the wire measuring the applied strength. This method, realized in the dog, made it possi ble to validate a precise and reproducible method designed for testing the adhesive characteristics of biological sealant-collagen bonding o n the liver.
