Bioceramics


Book Description

Volume 6: Contains 78 papers from the 6th International Symposium on Ceramics in Medicine, held in Philadelphia, USA and offers an extensive account of the leading edge research in this field of bioceramics. The sections are organized in such a way that they reflect the major lines of ceramics research, as well as focus on the critical properties and the mechanistic analyses of the interactions these materials elicit in tissues. The book includes sections on so called bioinert ceramics. These ceramics such as alumina and zirconia, are chemically very stable materials. They are primarily used in artificial joints and dental implants. Carbon-based ceramics have outstanding blood contact properties, and therefore, are the materials of choice in the construction of heart valves. This volume includes sections covering the current research on the use of bioactive ceramics and glasses as coatings on prostheses to achieve long-lasting fixation of devices. Volume 7: The primary forum for presentation of new work in the field of bioceramics is the annual International Symposium on Ceramics in Medicine. The chapters of this book represent the proceedings of the 7th meeting in this important series, held in Turku, Finland, in July 1994. The conference attracted a multidisciplinary audience from the bioceramics community, including leading academic and industrial scientists, manufacturers and regulators. The volume comprises 69 articles.




Bioceramics 19


Book Description

This latest volume in the Bioceramics series is a collection of selected papers submitted to the 19th International Symposium on Ceramics in Medicine, held in Chengdu, China, from the 10 to 13th October, 2006. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). Among the many topics covered by the papers are: bio-active and bio-inert ceramics, composites, coatings, bioactive cements, porous materials, dental materials, orthopaedic implants, antibacterial materials, protein absorption, cell-material interactions in vitro, tissue response and clinical applications. In particular, tissue engineering, drug delivery, nanotechnology and surface modification were covered by an appreciable number of papers; thus reflecting the rapid progress made in these cutting-edge research topics and the latest directions taken by developments in biomaterials and their clinical applications .
