If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

General description
Application
- Wound Closure: Ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate is often used in medical settings to close small cuts and wounds. It forms a strong bond when it comes into contact with moisture, effectively sealing the wound.
- Tissue Adhesives: In surgical and medical applications, ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate is used to adhere tissues together. It can be used as an alternative to traditional sutures or staples in certain procedures.
- Drug Delivery Systems: In some cases, ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate has been investigated as a component in drug delivery systems and tissue engineering due to its biocompatibility and ability to form strong bonds with biological materials.
- It can also be mixed with hydrophobic silica nanoparticles for the designing of cotton fabrics for medical applications.[3]

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
