Implanted Devices
All implanted devices – including prosthetics, ophthalmic, surgical products, sensors, therapeutics delivery, stimulators, percutaneous devices, vascular – share two common problems: The body reacts to the implant and scars the surrounding tissue, causing medical issues, damaging the device and/or degrading its function. Infection is common, hard to control, and expensive to treat.
Our STAR material has demonstrated substantial benefits in a variety of implantable applications, including the ability to impart high resistance to infection and scarring / fibrous encapsulation, and strong promotion of angiogenesis – thereby improving overall biointegration with host tissue.
Licensing opportunities will be considered. If you have an implantable device in development or production, inquiries are welcome.
