Hollinger. 2nd ed. Boca Raton, FL : CRC Press/Taylor & Francis, c2012. xix, 624 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 26 cm. Biomedical engineering series Includes bibliographical references and index. "The second edition of this popular text includes seven new chapters that provide a comprehensive and up-to-date educational framework for biomaterials education. A new chapter on the biology of wound healing sets the stage for the basic requirements of standardized biomaterials testing and explains the reactions between biomaterials and the living system into which it is implanted. The book explains <EM>in vitro</EM> and <EM>in vivo</EM> testing paradigms and provides numerous examples in the chapters on experimental design, laboratory assays, and animal models. Emphasizing the importance of the regulatory process, it describes how innovation in the biomaterials process relates to patentability and inventorship"-- "The Second Edition of the Biomaterials textbook consists of 32 chapters that have been conceived and organized as a practical educational roadmap to provide a fundamental understanding of key families of biomaterials and underscore their potential applications in clinical therapeutics. The 32 chapters are organized in 4 sections: Section 1: Biology, Biomechanics, Biomaterials Interactions Section 2: Biomaterials Testing, Statistics, Regulatory Considerations, Intellectual Property Section 3: Biomaterials Compositions Section 4: Biomaterials Applications"-- Biomedical materials. 47529 Biocompatible Materials. 47530 Equipment Design. 47531 Prostheses and Implants. 47532 Hollinger, Jeffrey O. 47533 Biomedical engineering series (Boca Raton, Fla.) 47534 7 cbc orignew 1 ecip 20 y-gencatlg ddc BOOK 37071 271571 0 2015-02-17 0 0 610.28 INB 2015-02-17 CL 00136737 CL 2015-02-17 00:00:00 BOOK ddc 0 0 2015-02-17 0 0 610.28 INB 2015-02-17 CL 00136738 CL 2015-02-17 00:00:00 BOOK ddc 0
