The New OsseoArray and OsseoPEEK Mesoporous Coatings from N2 Biomedical for Spinal Implants

N2 Biomedical is introducing two new surface modification technologies to improve the osseointegration properties of orthopedic and spinal implants. Our new OsseoArray surface treatment produces a large number of TiO2 nanotube structures on the surface of all types of pure or alloyed Ti-based implants, including devices manufactured using additive processes.The OsseoArray coatings enhance several key surface properties of the implant including osseo-induction, osseo-integration, and antimicrobial barrier to reduce infection.  

Our novelOsseoPEEK Mesoporous TiO2 coatings are produced using a proprietary surface texturing process developed at N2 Biomedical to ehnace the osseo-integrative properties of PEEK or other polymer-based implant surfaces.  The very large surface area of the mesoporous TiO2 sturcture  may result in preferential osteoblast differentiation and could be used as a medium to deliver biologics and drugs from the surface of the polymer impalant itself.  Additionally, our OsseoPEEK Mesoporous coatings come in different colors ideal for product differentiation.

Our goal at N2 Biomedical is to help OEMs in spinal and orthopedic industries to efficiently and cost effectively integrate nanotechnologies to their existing technological platforms, thereby strengthening their competitiveness and positively impact patient care.  To learn more about our services, please visit us at www.n2bio.com, call us at 781-275-6001, or email us at info@n2bio.com.
