The ongoing pioneering technology development is our "Zwitterionic Surface Modification" (ZWI-TECH), which is able to apply onto surfaces of different materials, in order to render a surface property called super-hydrophilicity, which turns into anti-biofouling surfaces. With a water contact angle reaching 0 degree, the modified surface becomes super-hydrophilic and biofouling (which starts with non-specific binding of proteins) is optimally prevented. This technology holds infinite possibilities over fields of application including but not limited to bio-processings, fermentations, medical implants, marines, cosmetics, blood treatment and so on.
