Description for Active Implants and Scaffolds for Tissue Regeneration
Hardback. Active implants are actually drug or protein-eluting implants that induce healing effects, in addition to their regular task, such as support. This book gives a broad overview of biomaterial platforms used as basic elements of drug-eluting implants. Editor(s): Zilberman, Meital. Series: Studies in Mechanobiology, Tissue Engineering and Biomaterials. Num Pages: 528 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MQW; TGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 33. Weight in Grams: 949.
Active implants are actually drug or protein-eluting implants that induce healing effects, in addition to their regular task, such as support. This effect is achieved by controlled release of the active agent to the surrounding tissue. This book will give a broad overview of biomaterial platforms used as basic elements of drug-eluting implants. It will include mainly coatings for vascular stents with controlled release of antiproliferative agents, wound dressings with controlled release of antibacterial agents, drug-eluting vascular grafts, protein-eluting scaffolds for tissue regeneration, drug-eluting platforms for dental and other applications. Thus, both internal and external implants are described. The drug-eluting ... Read more
