Biomedical Engineering

A handbook focusing on the biomechanics of dental implants, published within the Dental Science, Materials and Technology series, intended for researchers.

A collection of research papers (festschrift) dedicated to Dr. Allan S. Hoffman, covering advanced topics in polymer biomaterials. Content focuses on the physical chemistry of these materials in various states, addressing surface modification techniques (like RF plasma gas discharge), characterization, and critical properties such as protein adsorption, cell adhesion, and the development of permanent hydrophilic surfaces.

Covers the fundamental principles and practical techniques of In Vivo Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy for research and clinical applications.

This volume marks the expansion and renaming of the periodical to include Biomedical Engineering. The journal focuses on interdisciplinary research in Biomimetics, Biomaterials, and related scientific developments, particularly those advancing applications in applied medicine, transplant surgery, orthopaedics, diagnostics, and tissue engineering.

An edited volume exploring the interdisciplinary field of biomaterials science, covering chemistry, engineering, biological interactions, and medical applications of materials used in implants and advanced medical systems.

This volume contains manuscripts contributed by invited speakers to the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Biopolymers. It focuses on the application of polymers and biopolymers in medicine and advanced scientific knowledge in polymeric biomaterials.

The series embraces all aspects of biomédical materials and devices from fundamental principles to current advances in material/device processing, characterization and their applications in various biomedical-related fields, including drug delivery, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

This book, based on papers presented at a workshop in 1989, explores modern methods and techniques used to study the interactions between blood proteins and artificial surfaces (biomaterials). Key topics include competitive adsorption, protein adsorption in relation to platelet adhesion and contact activation, and research on developing hemocompatible and blood compatible materials.

A comprehensive analysis of the biological interaction and engineering properties of titanium materials, primarily focusing on their application in medical and dental fields.

A detailed overview of magnesium biomaterials, covering their design, testing, and practical implementation. The book focuses on their critical role in modern orthopaedic surgery, including applications for implants, fracture fixation, and joint replacement.

This book encompasses both fundamental and advanced aspects of bioinformatics, covering key developments such as gene discovery, genome analysis, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, structural bioinformatics, metabolic flux analysis, and drug discovery.

A complete, yet concise, guide to the rapidly developing field of high-throughput screening of biomaterials (materiomics). It covers key concepts and methodologies for determining biomaterial properties, including applications in rapid prototyping, lithography, and combinatorial chemistry. The book includes tutorials on topics such as biomaterial-banking, imaging, assay development, translational aspects, and informatics.
