Debris-Capture Surface
The modified polar surface is designed to adsorb and capture separated particles, helping reduce their reattachment to the channel wall.
Technology Overview
Full-Surface Contact Cleaning from Channel Entry to Distal End
Nolan Ball is a spherical channel-cleaning structure dimensioned for the internal diameter of an endoscope suction channel.
Upon insertion, it is designed to establish continuous surface contact with the channel wall, supporting close-contact cleaning from the entry point to the distal end while helping reduce areas that may be difficult to reach with conventional brushes.
Specifications (based on channel inner diameter)

360° Contact Matched to Channel Diameter
The spherical structure is dimensioned for the channel diameter and designed to establish full-surface contact upon insertion, helping reduce potential blind spots from entry to distal end.
- Spherical structure corresponding to the internal channel diameter
- Full-surface contact initiated upon insertion
- Contact coverage across the channel, including the entry section
Debris Removal During Pre-Cleaning
Continuous wiping and pushing action during movement supports the separation and outward transport of residual organic matter from inside the channel.
- Continuous wiping and pushing action
- Supports outward transport of blood, mucus, protein, and fine particles
- Assists in removing residual organic matter from the channel
Reduced Conditions for Biofilm Formation
By supporting early removal of residual organic matter and initial substrate, the process helps reduce conditions conducive to microbial attachment and EPS formation and supports subsequent reprocessing efficiency.
- Supports early removal of residual organic matter and initial substrate
- Helps reduce conditions favorable to microbial attachment and EPS formation
- Supports greater consistency and efficiency in subsequent cleaning steps
