  • Modular biocompatible materials for medical devices and uses thereof
    Patent number: 10266408
    Abstract: A metal-organic compound containing polymer matrix includes a polymer and a three-dimensional metal-organic framework includes a polydentate organic linker. The metal-organic compound containing polymer matrix is configured to continuously produce nitric oxide when exposed to a physiological fluid including a nitric oxide-releasing compound via a catalytic reaction catalyzed by the three-dimensional metal-organic framework.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 15, 2015
    Date of Patent: April 23, 2019
    Assignee: COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY RESEARCH FOUNDATION
    Inventors: Melissa M. Reynolds, Benjamin P. Reynolds
