Description

Nanocomposites for Musculoskeletal Tissue Regeneration discusses the advanced biomaterials scientists are exploring for use as tools to mimic the structure of musculoskeletal tissues. Bone and other musculoskeletal tissues naturally have a nanocomposite structure, therefore nanocomposites are ideally suited as a material for replacing and regenerating these natural tissues. In addition, biological properties such as biointegration and the ability to tailor and dope the materials make them highly desirable for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration.Provides a comprehensive discussion on the design and advancements made in the use of nanocomposites for musculoskeletal tissue regenerationPresents an In-depth coverage of material propertiesIncludes discussions on polymers, ceramics, and glass
