The accessible introduction to biomaterials and their
applications in tissue replacement, medical devices, and
more

Molecular and cell biology is being increasingly integrated into
the search for high-performance biomaterials and biomedical
devices, transforming a formerly engineering- and materials
science-based field into a truly interdisciplinary area of
investigation. Biomimetic, Bioresponsive, and Bioactive Materials
presents a comprehensive introduction to biomaterials, discussing
how they are selected, designed, and modified for integration with
living tissue and how they can be utilized in the development of
medical devices, orthopedics, and other related areas.

Examining the physico chemical properties of widely used
biomaterials and their uses in different clinical fields, the book
explores applications including soft and hard tissue replacement;
biointeractive metals, polymers, and ceramics; and in vitro, in
vivo, and ex vivo biocompatibility tests and clinical trials. The
book critically assesses the clinical level of research in the
field, not only presenting proven research, but also positing new
avenues of exploration.

Biomimetic, Bioresponsive, and Bioactive Materials contains
everything needed to get a firm grasp on materials science, fast.
Written in an accessible style and including practice questions
that test comprehension of the material covered in each chapter,
the book is an invaluable tool for students as well as
professionals new to the field.

Matteo Santin is Professor of Tissue Regeneration in the School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Studies at the University of Brighton. Gary J. Phillips is Principal Research Fellow in the School of Pharmacy and Bimolecular Sciences at the University of Brighton.
