Description

Tissue engineering is rapidly developing as a technique for the repair and regeneration of diseased tissue in the body. This authoritative and wide-ranging book reviews how ceramic and polymeric biomaterials are being used in tissue engineering. The first part of the book reviews the nature of ceramics and polymers as biomaterials together with techniques for using them such as building tissue scaffolds, transplantation techniques, surface modification and ways of combining tissue engineering with drug delivery and biosensor systems. The second part of the book discusses the regeneration of particular types of tissue from bone, cardiac and intervertebral disc tissue to skin, liver, kidney and lung tissue. Key Features: an innovative and up-to-date reference for professionals and academics; environmental scanning electron microscopy is discussed; analyses bone regeneration and specific types of tisue engineering; written by distinguished editors at the forefront of the industry. Contents: Part 1 General issues: Ceramic biomaterials; Polymeric biomaterials; Bioactive ceramics and glasses; Biodegradable and bioactive polymer/ceramic composite scaffolds; Transplantation of engineered cells and tissues; Surface modification to tailor the biological response; Combined tissue engineering and drug delivery; Carrier systems and biosensors for biomedical applications; Characterisation using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and secondary ion spectrometry (SIMS); Characterisation using environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM); Characterisation of cells on tissue engineered construsts using imaging techniques/microscopy; Characterisation using Raman micro-spectroscopy. Part 2 Tissue and organ generation: Engineering of tissues and organs; Bone regeneration and repair using tissue engineering; Bone tissue engineering and biomineralisation; Cardiac tissue engineering; Intervertebral disc tissue engineering; Skin tissue engineering; Liver tissue engineering; Kidney tissue engineering; Bladder tissue engineering; Nerve bioengineering; Lung tissue engineering; Intestine tissue engineering; Micromechanics of hydroxyapatite-based biomaterials and tissue engineering scaffolds; Cartilage tissue engineering.
