2 MICROGEL Surface-Enhanced Silicone Vent Tubes

Reduces bacterial adherence by more than 90% Myringotomy tube failure and premature extrusion can often be linked to the adherence and proliferation of bacteria on the surface of the material.

1 Microgel Surface-Enhanced Silicone Vent Tubes have a modified polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel coating.

3 Reduces bacterial adherence by more than 90% Myringotomy tube failure and premature extrusion can often be linked to the adherence and proliferation of bacteria on the surface of the material. Silicone substrates are especially prone to bacterial attachment because of their inherent surface morphology. 1 Microgel Surface-Enhanced Silicone Vent Tubes have a modified polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel coating. The patented Microgel process increases the surface energy of silicone, reducing the attachment of microbial pathogens. 2 Bacterial adherence assays have shown that the Microgel surface enhancement reduces the occurrence of bacterial adherence by more than 90%. Microgel vent tubes are available in a variety of designs with the patented, modified polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel coating. This surface enhancement reduces bacterial adherence by more than 90%. Staphylococcus epidermidis Composition Microgel is covalently bonded to the surface of silicone for uniform and long-lasting surface characteristics. 1 Karlan, M.S.
