Any1 ever used this stuff?

Apparently they havent put anything in this stuff to prevent infection yet, but they will in later versions, as well as painkillers.

'Liquid Bandage,' New Frontline Wound Treatment

What I wonder is:
Does it operate well in different climatic condtions (wet, dry, hot cold etc)
Would it react with any burning material on the skin, phosphorous burns etc
Will the syringes be tough enough to survive in a soldier's pack?
How much is needed per cm2 of wound?

Well to what i have heard the US army doesnt use it much, particularly because it isnt very effective in large wounds

The bandage in the OP was developed in conjunction with the army, so I imagine they gave a good bit of input on what they want out of it. But it's not going to magically treat gunshot or shrapnel wounds.

Nothing can beat the super healing allround PR field dressing! Got hit by a 7.62 round? Use a field dressing!
