Carbene based bioadhesives are developmental tissue adhesive, where photolysis creates carbenes that indiscriminately insert into amino acids. However, the nitrogen side product generates internal pores, creating a relatively weak cohesive matrix. To further improve cohesive toughness, photo-curing...
