Summary:
As no one material can effectively mimic the structure of Musculoskeletal tissues, scientists have looked to advanced biomaterials as substitutes. Bone and other Musculoskeletal tissues naturally have a nanocomposite structure; therefore nanocomposites are ideally suited as a material for replacing and regenerating these natural tissues. In addition biological properties such as biointegration and the ability to tailor and dope the materials make them highly desirable for Musculoskeletal tissue regeneration. Nanocomposites for Musculoskeletal Tissue Regeneration provides readers with a through review of biocomposites and their role in musculoskeletal tissue regeneration. Part one reviews designing nanocomposites for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration. Part two looks at the properties of these important materials and polymer nanocomposites for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration. The final set of chapters cover ceramic and glass nanocomposites for bone tissue regeneration. Book jacket.
