cyanoacrylate is neglibigly toxic; check wiki for a more thorough explanation. cyanoacrylate is in fact the active ingredient in all superglue. when it contacts water, CA quickly polymerizes and interlocks each of their molecules in a lattice like formation; that's why it solidifies. if it doesn't have CA, it probably won't work.

didja know CA was originally used in 'nam? it was used to slow/stop bleeding wounds

for the record, i prefer the superglue gel. I can't count how many of those freakin tubes Ive used up.
