TL;DR: Crosslinkable compositions as discussed by the authors are composed of at least two biocompatible, non-immunogenic components having reactive groups thereon, with the functional groups selected so as to enable inter-reaction between the components, i.e., crosslinking.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of tissue repair using a biocompatible non-immunogenic adhesive composition is provided, which comprises collagen and a plurality of crosslinkable components having reactive functional groups thereon.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel method for preparing crosslinked biomaterial compositions for use in the augmentation of soft or hard tissue was presented, which consisted mixing a biocompatible polymer, which is preferably collagen, with a sterile, dry crosslinking agent, which was preferably a synthetic hydrophilic polymer such as a functionally activated polyethylene glycol.

TL;DR: In this paper, two-part polymer compositions that rapidly form covalent linkages when mixed together are used for use in a variety of tissue related applications, such as tissue sealants, in promoting hemostasis, for drug delivery, in effecting tissue adhesion, in providing tissue augmentation, and in the prevention of surgical adhesions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed synthetic polymer compositions that form interpenetrating polymer networks, consisting of two multifunctionally activated synthetic polymers, along with a tensile strength enhancer.
