Ion Beam Modification of Biodegradable Polymeric Biomaterials
نویسنده
چکیده
In the last years biologically stable biomaterials gives their place to biodegradable biomaterials in packaging, agriculture, medicine, and other application areas. For applications in medicine this happens because of the some problems caused by the regeneration ability of the living tissues and toxic effect of stable polymers. By products of biodegradable polymers leaves no residual mass at the application site. This makes these polymers biocompatible which is very important for host response.

متن کاملModulating bone cells response onto starch-based biomaterials by surface plasma treatment and protein adsorption.
The effect of oxygen-based radio frequency glow discharge (rfGD) on the surface of different starch-based biomaterials (SBB) and the influence of proteins adsorption on modulating bone-cells behavior was studied. Bovine serum albumin, fibronectin and vitronectin were used in single and complex protein systems. RfGD-treated surfaces showed to increase in hydrophilicity and surface energy when co...
متن کاملFabrication and Optimal Design of Biodegradable Polymeric Stents for Aneurysms Treatments
An aneurysm is a balloon-like bulge in the wall of blood vessels, occurring in major arteries of the heart and brain. Biodegradable polymeric stent-assisted coiling is expected to be the ideal treatment of wide-neck complex aneurysms. This paper presents the development of methods to fabricate and optimally design biodegradable polymeric stents for aneurysms treatment. Firstly, a dispensing-bas...
