Biodegradable, polymer-based systems are playing an increasingly
pivotal role in tissue engineering replacement and regeneration.
This type of biology-driven materials science is slated to be one
of the key research areas of the 21st century. The following
aspects are crucial: the development of adequate human cell culture
to produce the tissues in adequate polymer scaffold materials; the
development of culture technology with which human tissues can be
grown ex-vivo in 3D polymer matrices; the development of material
technology for producing the degradable, 3D matrices, having
mechanical properties similar to natural tissue. In addressing
these and similar problems, the book contains chapters on
biodegradable polymers, polymeric biomaterials, surface
modification for controlling cell-material interactions, scaffold
design and processing, biomimetic coatings, biocompatibility
evaluation, tissue engineering constructs, cell isolation,
characterisation and culture, and controlled release of bioactive
agents.
