In an embodiment, a method for loading a powder substance () into recesses () provided at a stent (S) surface, the method comprises:

Method for loading at least two powder substances into recesses provided at a stent surface

Composition for delivery of at least one active principle at the implantation site of an implant device, including:

Composition for active principles delivery containing a fatty acid excipient

A process for depositing an active substance on selected regions of the surface of a stent, comprising: (i) providing the active substance in at least one form selected from the group consisting of a powder and a paste; and (ii) depositing the active substance on the selected regions of the surface of the stent. Preferably, the active substance comprises or consists essentially of FK506, such as FK506 in the form of a powder with a grain size smaller than 15 micron or a paste with a base of FK506 with a viscosity not lower than 100,000 to 120,000 cps.

Process for producing stents and corresponding stents

Sulfo benz[E]indocyanine flourescent dyes

A method of preparing biological implantation material fixed by means of aldehydes, in which the excess aldehyde is bound by treatment with an aminocarboxylic acid and the acid is selected from compounds of the general formula: ##STR1## in which n is 1 or 2 and X is a sulpho- (--SO.sub.3 H) or phosphono- (--PO.sub.3 H) group, and mixtures of such compounds.
