 Imagine this: You're bleeding. Nothing seems to make it stop. Then you apply a gel to your wound, and the blood stops coming out within seconds. You're healed in minutes. This is the VetiGel, created by Joe Landolina — a 22 year-old who invented the product many years ago.
Landolina is now the founder and CEO of Suneris, a company that produces the gel. Suneris announced last week that it would begin to ship VetiGel to vets later this summer. Humans won't be far behind.
When injected into a wound site, the gel can form a clot within 12 seconds heal the wound within minutes. Once it hits the damaged tissue, whether it's open skin or a soft organ — livers, kidneys— the gel instantly forms a structure. "What that means, on the one hand, is that the gel will make a structure that holds the wound together," Landolina says. 
As fast-acting as VetiGel is, its inventor may be faster. Landolina invented an early version of the gel out of his grandfather's lab. He was still in high school. Over the next four and a half years, Landolina turned the prototype into a business. The first product costs $150. Landolina says Suneris has its sights set on US first, followed by a release in Europe in Asia sometime early next year.
 A few years down the line, Landolina says, the goal will be to expand out of vet offices to help treat members of our own species. He forecasts receiving FDA approval within the year for testing on human wounds. If all goes according to plan, VetiGel will first help military personnel and EMTs treat injuries. Then it will enter operating rooms and, finally, individual homes.
Landolina says Suneris has yet to observe any negative side effects of VetiGel. The company holds weekly meetings with vets to ensure the product meets their needs.
