Biomaterials serve as synthetic or natural materials used to
replace parts of living systems or to function contact with living
tissue. Biomaterials are intended to interface with biological
systems to evaluate, treat, augment or replace any tissue, organ or
function of the body. A biomaterial is different from a biological
material such as bone that is produced by a biological system.
Artificial hips, vascular-stents, artificial peacemakers, and
catheters are all made from different biomaterials and comprise
different medical devices. This book presents new approaches to
biomaterial development including multi-field bone remodelling,
novel strategies for conferring antibacterial properties to bone
cement, polyacrylonitrile-based biomaterials for enzyme
immobilisation and functionalised magnetic nanoparticles for tissue
engineering.
