I thought the healing stuff they use in Star Wars is kolto? As in kolto tanks? At least that's what they call it in Knights of the Old Republic... maybe they changed it from the films for some reason.
It reminds me more of the stuff they use in Trauma Centre! You just whack a load of it on and it CURES EVERYTHING! I knew they were going to invent something like this eventually!

There is a new product on the market called KytoStat that is great for external wounds. KytoStat is as easy to use as a regular bandaid. Just apply it to the wound and it stops the bleeding. You don’t even need to wipe the blood away. In fact, the blood allows the chitosan in KytoStat to seal the wound. For more information, visit http://www.kytostat.com

I suppose it's not harmful if swallowed - but dangerous if it got in your eyes and quite deadly if injected.

Just now, I said out loud "That is F*@#$ING AMAZING."

And the dog looked up at me and I tried to explain to her.

F*@#$ING AMAZING.

Score 1 for science! Though I don't think pouring it inside a surgical site would be the best idea. There are other aqueous environments in an open abdomen besides broken blood vessels. But in an accident/war? Or even, once it's made cost effective, scrapes and cuts? Awesome!

I'm suddenly reminded of the healing material Bacta from Star Wars - thats the stuff Luke was submerged in in that tank in Empire Strikes Back after he was attacked by the wampa on Hoth.

That's the nerdiest thing I've ever said...
