Vetigel

VETIGEL is a veterinary product, a plant-derived injectable gel that is claimed to quickly stop traumatic bleeding on external and internal wounds. Its name is coined from Medi-Gel, from the video game series Mass Effect.^{[citation needed]} It uses a plant-based haemophilic polymer made from polysaccharides that forms a mesh which seals the wound.^[1] It is manufactured by Cresilon, Inc., an American biotechnology company, which is also exploring products for human use derived from its technology, which were expected to launch by 2016.^{[needs update][2]} The company plans to release a product for the military and the emergency medicine market first, followed by a product for the human surgical market when FDA approval is granted.^[3]

Cresilon, Inc. (formerly Suneris, Inc.) was founded in 2010 by Joe Landolina and Isaac Miller, while they were students at NYU Poly.^[4][5] Cresilon focuses on wound care products, specifically those in the field of hemostasis. The company operates out of a 25,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility located in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, New York, United States.^[6][7]
