Scientists have developed a special texture that can heal wounds in just a few seconds. Elastic adhesive could be used during surgeries to save time on suturing, researchers say.

Scientists called the special glue MeTro, and its texture consists of special active proteins, which, under the influence of ultraviolet light, rebuild the structure and become flexible..

The resulting texture has a very dense composition, and therefore can replace surgical sutures during operations..

Also, the novelty can be used not only during medical operations, but also in everyday life, to eliminate minor injuries.. The use of medical threads in this case is already useless, since MeTro is able to stop bleeding in just a minute and quickly tightens the wound.

Scientists also emphasize that glue can be programmed to act after a certain period of time, for this it must be mixed with other substances.. Experts have already tested MeTro on humans, the experiment was quite successful and the scientists got excellent results..
