Superglue is used by crime labs to develope fingerprints on different type surfaces, including off of bodies. They heat the glue which create fumes that lodge onto the prints. Because tubes do heat and it potentially emit a noxious fume. Now being that a small amount is used on a base of a tube, it might not be enough to cause a dangerous situation. I stay away from it.
