METHOD FOR PREPARING IMPANTS IMPROTECTED WITH ANTIMICROBIAL COATING, COMPOSING A SILICONE POLYMER MATRIX, AN ANTIBIOTIC AGENT OF ANTIMICROBIAL REVEATIMENTO

摘要

Uniform adherent coatings of antimicrobial agents are applied to the surface of implants by applying a film of silicone oil to the surface of the implant and contacting the film-bearing surface with antimicrobial agents in a film-adherent form. A durable antimicrobial coating is formed. The coated implants can be packaged using mechanized implant handling equipment without significant loss of the antimicrobial coating.
