Description

This book is written to serve as textbook on biomaterials and biopolymers for faculty and students and thus  contains a broad introduction and basic terms, followed by major developments over the years with some emphasis on recent developments and future prospects.
It provide a comprehensive overview in biomaterials and biopolymers. All relevant aspects of modern biomaterials, including: synthesis and characterization, biocompatibility and host response, the implementation of novel manufacturing processes, and advanced medical and biotechnological applications. Each chapter provides an overview of a specific field, its importance, the chemistry of biomaterials and the relations between chemical structure and the applications. Each chapter ends with a future prospective/concepts and a friendly quiz/multiple answer questions with answers that serves as a resource to provide guided additional practice.
