One common approach in biomedical devices is to prevent biofouling as the attachment of microorganisms may result in the infection of the patient.
Learn about the past and future development of biomaterials in regenerative medicine.
Surface chemistry plays a significant part in terms of interactions with the human tissue.
Learn about the distinction between the two concepts biomaterials and tissue engineering and how they relate to each other.
Learn more about how biocompatibility is defined and what this property entails
What makes an implant integrate successfully? The answer lies at the surface interaction processes, and what happens there, short term and long term.
The concept ‘Biomaterial’ is fairly frequently encountered. Read about what defines a biomaterial and where this category of material is used.
Within biomaterials research and development, hydroxyapatite (HA) is well known for its biocompatible properties, particularly in bone bonding, and for its potency of rapid integration into the human body.
