摘要：

Disclosed are methods for treating burns on mammalian skin to reduce the risk of infection and to minimize fluid loss. Specifically, the methods of this invention involve the in situ formation of a polymeric cyanoacrylate film at the site of the burn. The cyanoacrylate film acts as a barrier inhibiting the introduction of pathogens (e.g., bacteria) into the burn area and as a barrier for the loss of fluids.
