Hoboken, N.J. : Wiley, 2012 xiii, 233 p. : ill. HKBU library YT2025 M08 "This comprehensive introduction to biomaterials discusses how materials are selected, designed, and modified for integration with living tissue. Biomaterials have applications in tissue engineering, medical devices, orthopedics, and other areas. This guide examines the physico-chemical properties of widely used biomaterials and cites examples of their uses in different clinical applications. Topics covered include soft and hard tissue replacement; biointeractive metals, polymers, and ceramics; and in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo biocompatibility tests and clinical trials. This text is for students as well as professionals new to the field"-- Biomimetic polymers. 195211 Biomimetics. 195212 Tissues Mechanical properties. 195213 Santin, Matteo. 195214 Phillips, Gary. 195215 = C.1 SDU GBE lcc 104606 104606 0 0 lcc 0 QD0382 B615 02012 0 CGB 277966 SDU SDU GEN3 2025-08-13 2 0 QD382 B615 2012 1000365543 2025-08-13 00:00:00 C.1 2025-08-13 GBE
