Prevention of pulmonary air leaks using a biodegradable tissue-adhesive fiber sheet based on Alaska pollock gelatin modified with decanyl groups

We modified Alaska pollock-derived gelatin to include decanyl (C10) groups (C10-ApGltn) and used electrospinning to create a tissue-adhesive fiber sheet (AdFS) for prevention of air leaks.
