KOATUM

Koatum is a 7th Commercialization Reactor-born med-tech startup, founded in Riga, Latvia (2014) with an aim to introduce its unique know-how to the industry of medical body implants. The usage of implantable products of medical engineering, such as dental, orthopaedic or reconstructive implants, has become a common surgical practice. While the industry is constantly expanding due to additional products and methods being introduced, the major direction for research and development remains the ... same – medical implants should be made safer, capable of faster healing and faster bio-integration, less prone to any risks of rejections and inflammations. This is achieved by coating medical implants or modifying the morphology of their surface in order to increase the chances of faster biointegration. The coatings currently offered by manufacturers feature a limited set of biointegrational possibilities, only having a one-layer composition.More
