Abstract

A system and/or method are disclosed to inhibit sorption to a surface in a biological medium and/or biofouling by means of an alternating electric field. For example, one or more insulated electrodes may be positioned near the surface. For example, insulation may limit electric current flow between the biological medium and the electrode and/or between the surface and the electrode and/or between the electrodes. In some embodiments, the alternating charge in the vicinity of the surface may inhibit the buildup of biological films and/or sorption to the surface. For example, the system may be used to inhibit fouling of an implanted medical device (e.g. a catheter).
