The invention relates to an implant with a microstructured hyperhydrophilicsurface withprotrusions and depressions and to methods for producing the implant with thestructuredsurface, and to methods for determining the wetting properties of saidimplant. The implanthaving spacing between the protrusions as the statistical mean in the range of1 to 100 µmand the profile height of the protrusions and depressions as the statisticalmean is in therange of 1 to 80 µm.
