DALLAS, May 18, 2017 -- TissueGen® Inc., developer of ELUTE® fiber, a groundbreaking biodegradable fiber format for advanced drug delivery, nerve regeneration, and tissue engineering, was awarded the title of Most Innovative Small Size Company by the World Textile Information Network (WTiN), publisher of international technical textiles magazine Future Textiles (formerly known as Future Materials).
TissueGen Founder and CSO, Dr. Kevin Nelson, and President and CEO, Christopher Knowles, accepted the award at the Future Textiles Award Gala in Frankfurt, Germany this past week. Organized by WTiN, the third edition of the biennial awards celebrated the best innovations in the technical textiles industry.
TissueGen’s patented process for manufacturing commercially available ELUTE® fiber occurs at or below body temperature thereby preserving the biologic activity of incorporated biologics and pharmaceutical compounds. ELUTE fiber technology enables controlled sustained delivery of a broad range of sensitive biologics and pharmaceuticals directly at the topical application or implant site and may potentially orchestrate and improve the healing process. ELUTE fiber enables tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications never before possible.
“We are honored to receive this recognition from WTiN as further testament to the groundbreaking work conducted by our scientists at TissueGen,” said Knowles. “We were privileged to participate in this special event and congratulate all the winners and finalists.”
