Biocompatibility of Materials for Biomedical Engineering

Adv Exp Med Biol. 2020:1250:125-140. doi: 10.1007/978-981-15-3262-7_9.

Abstract

In the tissue engineering research field, nanobiomaterials highlight the impact of novel bioactive materials in both current applications and their potentials in future progress for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Tissue engineering is a well-investigated and challenging biomedical field, with promising perspectives to improve and support quality of life for the patient. To assess the response of those extracellular matrices (ECMs), induced by biomedical materials, this review will focus on cell response to natural biomaterials for biocompatibility.
