The present disclosure relates to a method for increasing the stability of a Factor VIII molecule after purification, lyophilization and reconstitution, comprising preventing proteolytic cleavage of the Factor VIII molecule into a first fragment comprising essentially the A1 domain and the A2 domain and a second fragment comprising essentially the A3 domain, the C1 domain and the C2 domain throughout manufacturing the Factor VIII molecule. The disclosure further pertains to a method for improving the bioavailability of Factor VIII after intravenous and non-intravenous injection.

Disclosed herein is an anti-adhesion kit comprised of: (i) a fibrinogen solution component comprising: fibrinogen at a concentration of about 5 to 25 mg/ml; and free calcium ions at a concentration ranging from 0.1 μM to 1 mM; and (ii) a thrombin component containing thrombin. Further disclosed is an anti-adhesion kit comprised of: (i) a fibrinogen solution component containing fibrinogen at a concentration of 8% to 25% of total protein by weight, and optionally free calcium ions at a concentration ranging from 0.1 μM to 1 mM; wherein a total protein concentration ranges from about 80 to 120 mg/ml; and (ii) a thrombin component containing thrombin. Methods of using the kits e.g., to provide anti-adhesion curable compositions are also disclosed.
