Peptides and Proteins as Biomaterials for Tissue Regeneration and Repair highlights the various important considerations that go into biomaterial development, both in terms of fundamentals and applications.
After covering a general introduction to protein and cell interactions with biomaterials, the book discusses proteins in biomaterials that mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM). The properties, fabrication and application of peptide biomaterials and protein-based biomaterials are discussed in addition to in vivo and in vitro studies.
This book is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists and advanced students interested in biomaterials science, chemistry, molecular biology and nanotechnology.
- Presents an all-inclusive and authoritative coverage of the important role which protein and peptides play as biomaterials for tissue regeneration
- Explores protein and peptides from the fundamentals, to processing and applications
- Written by an international group of leading biomaterials researchers
