PMMA hydrogel with polyzene F coating
Embozene® Microspheres
CeloNova BioSciences Embozene® Microspheres are the embolization platform for the future. Embozene® Microspheres consist of a hydrogel core with Polyzene®-F exterior providing key benefits including precise calibration, stable suspension, structural integrity and superior biocompatibility. Embozene® Microspheres offer the industry’s only embolic spheres color-coded by size for improved visibility and increased procedural safety.
Embozene® Microspheres Design Platform
CeloNova BioSciences Embozene® Microspheres are proof that the right platform accelerates innovation. Embozene® Microspheres are the world’s first microspheres color-coded by particle size. This color advancement improves particle visibility, increases procedural safety and optimizes handling and convenience for the physician.
CeloNova BioSciences Embozene® Microspheres technology is built upon four design principles: Precise Calibration, Stable Suspension, Structural Integrity and Superior Biocompatibility.
Precise Calibration
CeloNova BioSciences Embozene® Microspheres have the tightest size distribution of any particle embolic product on the market. Precise calibration means that each prefilled syringe and vial of Embozene® Microspheres contains microspheres that are consistently the same size, which enables targeted embolization.
Precise calibration:
-
Reduces the risk of untargeted embolization
-
Provides tighter tolerances compared to other embolics (± 50 v. ± 100 for most sizes)
-
Allows for a broad range of specific sphere sizes (40 µm - 1300 µm)
Structural Integrity and Elasticity:
Embozene® Microspheres are designed to regain their original shape and volume after passage through the catheter, without fracture, therefore maintaining the benefits of precise calibration.
Structural Integrity and Elasticity
-
Pass easily through catheters and microcatheters without clumping or clogging.
-
Inject smoothly directly from the prefilled syringe or three-way stopcock.
-
Rebound immediately to spherical shape for an effective mechanical occlusion.
Stable Suspension
Embozene® Microspheres offer a suspension that can be customized to meet individual physician needs. Dependant upon the amount of contrast mixed with the product, suspension can be achieved quickly, or the durability of the suspension can be extended.
Biocompatibility
Embozene® Microspheres are composed of a hydrogel core and feature a coating of CeloNova’s proprietary polymer, Polyzene®-F. Polyzene®-F is ultra-pure and highly biocompatible, and is shown to minimize inflammatory response.
Indications
Embozene® Microspheres are CE Marked for the embolization of hypervascularized tumors (HVT), arteriovenous malformations (AVM), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), uterine fibroid embolization (UFE), bleeding and trauma, pre-operative reduction of bleeding, neurovascular and peripheral arteriovenous malformations, and tumors of the head, neck, torso and skeletal system.
