Biopolymers and Biomaterials

Biomaterials

Bio-materials used for biomedical applications and soft tissue regeneration as well as in various medical instruments. In day-to-day medical field bio-materials demand is increased. This biomaterials involves not only synthetic materials like (ceramics composites metals and polymers) but also biological materials proteins cells and tissues. These materials are designed in a way to avoid biological rejection and small interaction with biology of host. Biomaterials have a high mechanical strength and ability to go through the biodegradation over a period of time. Bio materials design to interact with biological systems for a wide range of applications. Bio medical applications of such biomaterial systems depend on their macromolecular structure, their interactions with living cells and cytocompatibility. Bio materials have been developed both from natural and man-made resources.
