The polymer or metal materials which are now used in surgery are characterised by low tissue compatibility – thus implants are often rejected by the patient’s system.
The technology, designed and developed at the Institute, enables production of stable bacterial cellulose composites characterised by increased tissue compatibility.
Potential applications of this technology include, among others, cryoplasty and surgery of soft and hard tissues.
INCREASED BIOCOMPATIBILITY OF MATERIALS || LOWER INCIDENCE OF POST-IMPLANTATION COMPLICATIONS || IMPROVED PATIENT’S COMFORT
