Biodegradable polymers as biomaterials
During the past two decades significant advances have been made in the development of biodegradable polymeric materials for biomedical applications. Degradable polymeric biomaterials are preferred candidates for developing therapeutic devices such as temporary prostheses, three-dimensional porous structures as scaffolds for tissue engineering and as controlled/sustained release drug delivery ve...
متن کاملPiezoelectric polymers as biomaterials for tissue engineering applications.
Tissue engineering often rely on scaffolds for supporting cell differentiation and growth. Novel paradigms for tissue engineering include the need of active or smart scaffolds in order to properly regenerate specific tissues. In particular, as electrical and electromechanical clues are among the most relevant ones in determining tissue functionality in tissues such as muscle and bone, among oth...
متن کاملRecombinant protein polymers in biomaterials.
Naturally occurring protein-based materials have been found that function as critical components in biomechanical response, fibers and adhesives. A relatively small but growing number of recombinant protein-based materials that mimic the desired features of their natural sources, such as collagens, elastins and silks, are considered as an alternative to conventional synthetic polymers. Advances...
متن کاملPOSS Polymers: Physical Properties and Biomaterials Applications
Research into polymers incorporating polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) has intensified during the past several years, revealing new fundamental polymer physics, new synthetic routes, and unexpected applications. The present review article critically examines the recent scientific literature on POSS polymers with an emphasis on structure-property relationships. We conclude that it is a...
متن کاملSurface Modification by Plasma Polymerization and Application of Plasma Polymers as Biomaterials
The work described in this thesis concerns the plasma polymers used for immobilization and adsorption of biomolecules. In particular, thin polymeric films bearing ether, anhydride, and amine functionalities were synthesis by plasma polymerization of these group containing monomers, i.e. di-(ethylene glycol) vinyl ether (EO2), maleic anhydride (MA), and allylamine (AA). Additionally, the charact...
