Based on physical or chemical measurements of the signal-generating agent (e.g., by X-ray or spectroscopy), the delivery of the therapeutic can be monitored.
  • US 2005/0095267 A1 proposes a nanoparticle-containing polymer coating for implants. However, it refers exclusively to nanoparticles that release anti-proliferative substances.

  • Such implants require the best possible contact between the nerve and an electrical (or optical) conductor in the implant. Frequently, pores are even provided in the implant, through which the nerve cells can spread to the electrical conductor. Disruptive effect, however, is when connective tissue cells grow faster than the nerve cells in the pores and thus "clogged.” With the device according to the invention, this problem can be prevented by the delivered by the device (s) substances favors the growth of the nerve cells and ensures that the nerve cells grow faster than the rest of the tissue to the device and in particular to an electrical conductor therein if necessary.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif à effet biologique (1) comportant un corps de base (2) constitué par un polymère, dans lequel des nanoparticules bioactives (3) d'une ou plusieurs substances sont intégrées. Les nanoparticules (3) d'au moins une substance ont un effet prolifératif sur un matériau biologique avec lequel le dispositif (1) peut être mis en contact, et des nanoparticules (3) d'une autre substance ont un effet anti-prolifératif sur le matériau biologique dans l'environnement du dispositif (1). L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'un dispositif à effet biologique (1) comportant un corps de base (2) constitué par un polymère. Selon ledit procédé, des nanoparticules (3) de plusieurs substances différentes sont dispersées dans un liquide (15) pouvant être moulé par injection, et le liquide est moulé sous la forme du corps de base polymère (2) par moulage par injection et durcissage, de telle manière que les nanoparticules (3) sont dispersées dans le volume du corps de base polymère (2). Selon l'invention, les nanoparticules (3) sont fabriquées par disposition d'au moins deux substrats (10) de matériaux différents dans une cuvette à échantillon (11) remplie de matériau liquide (12), et enlèvement des nanoparticules (3) de la surface des substrats (10) dans le liquide (12) au moyen de rayonnement laser (13).
