Description

This latest volume in the Advances in Chemical Engineering series, is a contemporary analysis of the preparation, structure and properties of biomaterials with emphasis on the molecular design and material/polymer interactions. The book addresses cell-biomaterials adhesion, biomaterials and gene therapy, protein adsorption, platelet and white cell activation processes, molecular design and surface modification of novel biomaterials.

Table of Contents

The new biomaterials. Cell-material interactions. Polymeric biomaterials for nerve regeneration. Structural and dynamic response of neutral and intelligent networks in biomedical environments. Biomaterials and gene therapy. Surface-erodible biomaterials for drug delivery.
