Biomedical engineers and surgeons at Duke University and UCLA have demonstrated an antibiotic coating that can be applied to orthopedic implants minutes before surgery that eliminates the chances of an infection around the implant.
Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) have developed an innovative anti-biofilm coating that has significant anti-adhesive potential for a variety of medical and industrial applications.
Orchid Orthopedic Solutions (Orchid), a leader in design and manufacturing for the orthopedic and medical device industry, has signed an agreement to acquire the Cam Bioceramics coating facility and operations in Suzhou (Cam China), a provider of hydroxylapatite (HA) plasma coatings in China.
A new medical-grade silver-silver chloride ink and coating for sensors, ECG, EEG, TENS and defibrillator electrodes, 113-09(S) is chemical-resistant and is specifically designed to have excellent aging characteristics when used with high-salt-content hydrogels.
UC Berkeley scientists have taken proteins from nerve cells and used them to create a “smart” material that is extremely sensitive to its environment. This marriage of materials science and biology could give birth to a flexible, sensitive coating that is easy and cheap to manufacture in large quantities.
Innovations will surge in the protective coatings industry by 2020, giving rise to a range of improved biocompatible and durable coatings that enable implant devices for use in orthopedic, orthodontic and cardiac applications.
Iranian biomaterials researchers from Isfahan University of Technology produced biocompatible materials based on metallic alloy to modify the properties of materials used in tissue engineering.
