Resorbable Materials | Mimetix Technology

Our Mimetix Technology enables the development of degradable materials that support tissue healing and regeneration. By leveraging our expertise in polymer selection, we ensure the material’s degradation aligns with clinical needs and supports optimal tissue integration.

Our established network of trusted partners and focus on medical-grade polymers ensures the highest quality and reliability for your applications. This approach supports the creation of advanced solutions for tissue regeneration in implantable medical devices.

CNS research: aligned Mimetix fibres support oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination without neuronal input (Marie Bechler – The University of Edinburgh).

Differentiation of neural stem cells into mature neurons supported by Mimetix fibres (ReNeuron)

Mimetix scaffolds with random fibre orientation mimic native tissue, providing a 3D environment ideal for isotropic tissue regeneration

Bone regeneration: Mimetix Fibres with added collagen and hydroxy apatite drive osteogenic differentiation and mineral deposition

Cardiomyocytes on aligned Mimetix scaffolds mimic native human cardiac tissue with Enhanced Maturity and Myofibril Alignment

The resorbable scaffold creates a temporary support system, guiding the body’s own cells to form new and functional tissue. Once implanted, it provides the strength needed to handle physical loads while supporting healthy tissue growth. Over time, the scaffold naturally dissolves, leaving behind a fully biological structure capable of repairing, remodelling, and growing with the body. Upon implantation, the scaffold supports a natural healing process.

It begins with immune cell infiltration and the formation of a preliminary matrix. This is followed by proliferation of immune and tissue-producing cells which drive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. Over time, as the scaffold dissolves, tissue function is restored through ECM remodelling and the resolution of inflammation, leaving behind a fully biological, functional, and adaptable structure.
