Zusammenfassung:A seal-less, hand-held dispensing device for dispensing microliter quantities of a material at a site of a slice wound the edges of which are spaced apart a distance in the range from at least about 0.4 mm to about 0.5 mm comprises: a support platform; first and second hollow members on the platform; and a compatibly sized plunger disposed in each hollow member. Each hollow member has a predetermined maximum outside dimension that is not greater than about 0.4 mm such that both of the hollow members are insertable into a space between the edges of a slice wound without undue disruption of any tissue matter surrounding the site. The largest outside dimension of each compatibly sized plunger being in a range from about eighty percent (80%) to about ninety-five percent (95%) of the largest inside diameter of a hollow member in which it is disposed.
