Biomaterials: From Molecules to Engineered Tissue gives examples of the application areas of biomaterials involving molecules at one end of the spectrum and finished devices in the other. It covers molecular approaches as well as molecules functional in preparing and modifying biomaterials, medical devices and systems, tissue engineering and artificial organs. Chapters on biomedical informatics and ethics complement the design and production aspects with their contribution in informatics and ethical concerns of biomedical research. This is a reference book for the advanced graduate student eager to learn the biomaterials area and for all researchers working in medicine, pharmacy, engineering and basic sciences in universities, hospitals, and industry involved in biomaterials and biomedical device production.

This volume reviews the published knowledge about bioactive composites, protein scaffolds and hydrogels. Chapters also detail the production parameters and clarify the evaluation protocol for analysis or testing and scaffolding biomaterials. The volume concludes with a summary of applications of porous scaffold in medicine. Each chapter links basic scientific and engineering concepts to practical applications for the benefit of the reader. The text offers a wealth of information that will be of use to all students, bioengineers, materials scientists, chemists, physicians and surgeons concerned with the properties, performance, and the application of tissue engineering scaffolds in clinical settings.

"As in the first edition of this book, we continue to believe that the field of biomaterials has evolved over approximately the past 60+ years from the intersection of multiple disparate viewpoints, including materials science, biology, engineering, and clinical, business, and regulatory perspectives. With this history, the multidisciplinary nature of biomaterials is inescapable. As educators in this field, we understand the challenges of preparing students with a broad range of backgrounds to address the complex issues associated with designing and implementing new biomedical devices. With this in mind, we originally set out to write a balanced and cohesive textbook that would introduce fundamental concepts of biomaterials to undergraduate engineering majors in their second year of study or later. Given this target audience, like the first edition, this text assumes basic knowledge of chemistry and physics, but does not require in-depth exposure to more complex mathematical concepts such as partial differential equations, or any knowledge of cell biology or biochemistry"--
