| Sumario: | Ideal as a graduate textbook, this title is aimed at helpingdesign effective biomaterials, taking into account the complexinteractions that occur at the interface when a synthetic materialis inserted into a living system. Surface reactivity, biochemistry, substrates, cleaning, preparation, and coatingsare presented, with numerous case studies and applicationsthroughout. Highlights include: Starts with concepts and works up to real-life applicationssuch as implantable devices, medical devices, prosthetics, and drugdelivery technologyAddresses surface reactivity, requirements for surface coat. |
