From Medtronic
Endeavor Resolute uses a proprietary new biocompatible polymer called BioLinx™. The BioLinx polymer is designed to confer the same biocompatibility as the Endeavor stent’s phosphorylcholine (PC) polymer while extending the duration of drug exposure in the vessel. Developed by Medtronic scientists, BioLinx is the first polymer created specifically for use on a drug-eluting stent. The BioLinx polymer features a unique blend of hydrophilic and hydrophobic elements for optimal performance. Extensive preclinical studies have established the biocompatibility and drug delivery capabilities of the BioLinx polymer.
