Stalif - Model M Ti - No-Profile Anterior Lumbar Integrated Interbody System
Sixth generation STALIF® technology, STALIF M-Ti™ incorporates a novel, circumferential, titanium surface, PEEK Integrated Interbody™ design that is raising the Gold Standard of lumbar interbody fusion.
Raising the Standard with
The Ti-ACTIVE™ surface provides a three-dimensional texturized surface that is microporous with hydrophilic properties, to facilitate human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) attachment and proliferation as demonstrated by pre-clinical testing performed on representative PEEK coupons with Ti-ACTIVE surface.2
During manufacturing, commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) is applied to the PEEK cage by a plasma spray to create our Ti-ACTIVE devices. The unique CP Ti surface system utilizes a robotic applicator, enabling the creation of a high-quality, reproducible titanium surface.3 Ti-ACTIVE was tested for mechanical integrity and the results exceeded the FDA requirements for shear and tensile strength for metallic spray surfaces.4

Unlike standard PEEK, the PEEK with titanium surface provides a 3-D microporous environment conducive to cell attachment and cell migration, seen by cytoplasmic expansions of the cultured cells, as highlighted in purple.
