ISurTec develops coatings to control protein and cell adhesion and control friction and wettability on surfaces, allowing devices to gain and retain their functions longer. For example, when a medical device enters the body, a cascade of biological actions occurs at the surface. Our medical device coating products control the surface properties to minimize harm to the body and to the medical device from those biological interactions. The ISurGlide hydrophilic lubricious coatings reduce tissue damage and allow coated devices to easily glide into and exit the body.
