Multi-Action Coatings – Straightforward Solutions for Complex Challenges

Medical devices face complex biocompatible challenges when innovating modern therapies. Multi-action coatings confront these complex challenges in one straightforward, high-performance technology which enhances device performance and improves patient well-being.

BioInteractions have developed three unique polymer coatings to help with these challenges:

Astute®Anti-thrombogenic Coating

Active-Endothelial Action

Astute® uses an active anti-thrombogenic agent bound within its polymer backbone in combination with passive components to block thrombus formation, mimic endothelial layer and reduce further risks to the patient.


Astute® Active-Endothelial Action:

  • Actively stops blood activation
  • Prevents protein and cellular deposition
  • Non-leaching and stable for long-term applications

AvertPlus™ Antimicrobial Coating

Long lasting, Contact-Kill Mechanism

AvertPlus™ reduces device related infections and targets biofilm formation through a contact-kill mechanism paired with passive components. This non-leaching combination instantly kills bacteria without the use of toxic components, protects the device surface from bacteria and consistently reduces infection in patients.


AvertPlus™ Long lasting, Contact Kill Mechanism:

  • Actively disrupt broad-spectrum of bacteria to result in lysis
  • Prevents deposition and adhesion of proteins
  • Non-leaching, non-toxic components for long term applications

Assist™ Hydrophilic Coating

Flexible and Durable Assistance

Assist™ significantly reduces friction and minimises obstacles faced at the device-body interface. The highly hydrophilic surface improves insertion and removal of devices, enhances surface smoothness to reduce adhesion and shields the device from deposition.


Assist™ Enhanced Lubricity:

  • Significantly reduces friction and shields the surface
  • Flexible, non-cytotoxic and stable for long term applications
  • Available as UV Cured or Heat Cured for application on various shapes and materials
