parylene

10/01/2013 - "Among others, recent notable device enhancements include Parylene coating, Bioflex® material, InhibizoneTM antibacterial impregnation, hydrophilic coating, lockout valves, and easy release pump mechanisms, all of which have improved mechanical reliability, reduced infection rates, and/or improved patient satisfaction with penile prostheses. "
01/07/2015 - "Antibiotic nanoparticles embedded into the Parylene C layer as a new method to prevent medical device-associated infections."

01/01/2018 - "This paper describes the in vivo evaluation of flexible parylene microprobes designed to improve the interface with the adjacent neural tissue to limit gliosis and thereby allow for improved recording longevity. "

01/01/2018 - "Furthermore, as a preliminary demonstration, the prepared 2.5-dimensional Parylene C micropore array was implemented as an efficient filter for rare cancer cell separation from a large volume, approximately 10 cells in 10 mL PBS and undiluted urine, with high recovery rates of 87 ± 13% and 56 ± 13%, respectively."
10/28/2016 - "The strong adhesion of these epithelial cancer cells to the Parylene C membrane is attributable to non-specific electrostatic interaction. "
11/05/2008 - "Thus, the controlled release of an anti-cancer therapeutic has been achieved via scalably fabricated, parylene C-encapsulated drug delivery devices."
11/24/2018 - "The prepared Parylene-C micropore array is promising for various applications, such as rare tumor cell separation and cell assays in liquid biopsy for cancer precision medicine."
08/15/2010 - "To address these limitations, we have developed a novel cancer detection platform which measures telomerase activity from live CTCs captured on a parylene-C slot microfilter. "

04/01/2020 - "Recently, the parylene-matrix chip was developed for quantitative analysis of small molecules less than 1 kDa. In this study, MALDI-TOF MS based on the parylene-matrix chip was performed to clinically diagnose intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCC) and colorectal cancer (CRC). "
