The Biomerix Biomaterial is designed to play a role similar to the body's extracellular matrix (ECM), through the main phases of inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Benefits of the Biomerix Biomaterial extend beyond medical device applications. The material's unique structure and chemistry impart differentiated benefits including high porosity, excellent resilience, long-term durability and superior chemical compatibility over current polymeric materials. It is these advantages that make the Biomerix Biomaterial a compelling alternative for potential industrial and consumer applications.
"Biomerix secured one of its most important intellectual property assets representing a significant milestone for our company and is the culmination of extensive research and development," stated Kenneth G. Hayes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Biomerix Corporation. "The scope of this technology is far reaching and has the potential to drive technological innovation across a broad spectrum of applications in the medical, industrial, and consumer industries."
The US patent number is 7,803,395.
