Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Devices are provided which are functionalized to include surface regions having anti-infective agents. Methods are provided for functionalizing various material surfaces to include active surface regions for binding anti-infective agents. Methods are provided by which anti-infective moieties or agents are bonded to functionalized surfaces.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of preparing a medical device having an anti-infective surface, the method comprising covalently bonding a functionalized organophosphonate to a native oxide surface of a metal, derivatizing the functionalized organophosponate, and covalently bonding a quaternary ammonium anti-infective agent to the organophosphonate, wherein the functionalized organophosphonate is an hydroxy, amino or thiol omega-functionalized organophosphonate where the organo group is a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, substituted or unsubstituted, aliphatic or aromatic alkylene hydrocarbon of from 2 to 40 carbon atoms, and comprising derivatizing the hydroxy, amino or thiol with a cross-coupling reagent; reacting the derivatized hydroxy, amino or thiol with a diamine or aminoalcohol to bond the organo group of the organophosphonate via a urethane, carbonate, urea, thiocarbonate or thiourea bond and provide a distal amino group; and quaternizing the distal amino. 2. The method according to claim 1 comprising covalently bonding the functionalized organophosphonate directly to the native oxide surface. 3. The method according to claim 1 comprising contacting a metal alkoxide with the native oxide surface, subjecting the metal alkoxide to conditions adequate to form a metal oxide adhesion layer, the conditions selected from the group consisting of pyrolysis, microwaving, complete or partial hydrolysis, and covalently bonding a functionalized organophosphonate to the metal oxide adhesion layer. 4. The method of claim 3 comprising contacting a zirconium alkoxide with the native oxide surface. 5. The method of claim 3 comprising contacting a zirconium alkoxide with a native oxide surface of titanium. 6. The method of claim 1 wherein the organophosphonate is 11-hydroxyundecylphosphonate. 7. The method of claim 1 wherein the the anti-infective agent is a quaternary alkylammonium moiety. 8. The method of claim 1 wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of titanium, stainless steel, cobalt chrome, nickel, molybdenum, tantalum, zirconium, magnesium, manganese, niobium, and alloys thereof. 9. The method of claim 1 wherein the metal is titanium.
