Minamo Technology

The patent-pending Minamo coating technology consists of two steps:

  1. Environmentally friendly surface activation with simple hydroxyl amines, using non-toxic solvent to introduce amino groups to the silicone surface. The presence of amino groups can be confirmed by ninhydrin- and FITC assays

  2. Coating with biomolecules to confer antimicrobial properties to the silicone surface

The Minamo technology presents a novel approach without occupational hazards, environmental concerns or regulatory barriers.
