Development of anti-biofilm cotings, materials and devices

Biofilms which form on catheters and implants are a serious clinical burden for the patient and the healthcare payers. In order to reduce their incidence, medical devices made of anti-biofilm materials or coatings have to be tailored to the particular situation in which they will be used. Ideally, they have also to be effective against a wide spectrum of bacterial species and certainly many strains. As of today, it is not possible to predict from the chemical structure of a molecule or macro-molecule whether it will have the desired anti-fouling behavior. Experimental evidence is a necessary guidance in order to orient the development of molecules and to make it evolve to an efficient anti-biofilm coating or material.

At BioFilm Control we have developed the technology and the service that will make the difference.

The BioFilm Ring Test allows us to measure the efficacy of anti-biofilm coatings and materials against biofilms:

• How they affect the rate of growth of the biofilm
• How they affect the adherence of the biofilm and its resistance to mechanical stress

Thanks to our unique technological offers, we can offer you tailored service that will allow you explore a large chemical space within minimal development time.

Thanks to our unique technological offers, you will reach the optimal molecular design that will make your anti-biofilm device the most efficient on the market. Unprecedented performance will allow you to market the coating process or the coated products at premium price and provide you with a valuable competitive advantage to penetrate the market.
