A biomaterial is any matter, surface, or construct that interacts with biological systems. The development of biomaterials , as a science, is about fifty years old. The study of biomaterials is called biomaterials science . It has experienced steady and strong growth over its history, with many companies investing large amounts of money into the development of new products. Biomaterials science encompasses elements of medicine , biology , chemistry , tissue engineering and materials science .

Introduction Biomaterials can be derived either from nature or synthesized in the laboratory using a variety of chemical approaches utilizing metallic components or bioceramic ceramics . They are often used and or adapted for a medical application, and thus comprises whole or part of a living structure or biomedical device which performs, augments, or replaces a natural function. Such functions may be benign, like being used for a heart valve , or may be bioactive with a more interactive functionality such as hydroxylapatite hydroxy apatite coated hip implant s. Biomaterials are also used every day in dental applications, surgery, and drug delivery. E.G. A construct with impregnated pharmaceutical products can be placed into the body, which permits the prolonged release of a drug over an extended period of time. A biomaterial may also be an autograft , allograft or xenograft used as a organ transplant transplant material. Materials scientists are currently paying more and more attention to the process inorganic crystallization within a largely organic matrix of naturally occurring compounds.

In surgery , a biocompatible material sometimes shortened to biomaterial is a synthetic or natural material used to replace part of a living system or to function in intimate contact with living biological tissue tissue . Biocompatible materials are intended to interface with biological systems to evaluate, treat, augment or replace any tissue, organ anatomy organ or function of the body. Biomaterials are usually viability non viable Disambiguation needed date February 2012 , but may also be viable. A biocompatible material is different from a biological material such as bone that is produced by a biological system . Artificial hip s, vascular stent s, artificial pacemaker s, and catheter s are all made from different biomaterials and comprise different medical devices . Biomimetic materials are not made by living organisms but have compositions and properties similar to those made by living organisms. The calcium hydroxylapatite coating found on many artificial hips is used as a bone replacement that allows for easier attachment of the Implant medicine implant to the living bone . Surface functionalization may provide a way to transform a bio inert material into a biomimetic or even bioactive material by coupling of protein layers to the surface , or coating the surface with self assembling peptide scaffolds to lend bioactivity and or cell attachment 3 D matrix.

Alloplant is an experimental, chemically processed biomaterial used for transplantation. It is made primarily from deceased human flesh. The tissue is subjected to radiating sterilization and is being studied for possible regeneration of tissues of the recipient. The concept has been rejected by the general medical community. Use in eye transplant The primary advocate of alloplants is the Russian surgeon Ernest Muldashev . In 2000, he claimed to have successfully transplanted a human eye onto a blind woman using a harvested cornea and retina combined with an alloplant. The operation happened after he and his colleagues made a trip to Tibet. According to Muldashev, this voyage gave him an innate and unprecedented understanding of certain worldly ideas and concepts. He claims he witnessed paranormal phenomena involving time mirrors in search of forefather giants . The claim was widely rejected by the scientific and medical community. Although they avoid the use of the term Quackery quack , doctors interviewed by The Guardian maintain that such transplants are medically impossible and not supported by peer reviewed medical evidence. Nevertheless, the patient in question claims to have developed the ability to distinguish shapes, colors, and even letters with her transplanted eye. ref http www.guardian.co.uk international story 0,3604,217420,00.html Guardian article on the claimed transplant ref References reflist br Stubs Categories Category Transplantation medicine Category Tissues treatment stub Other languages ru ... more details

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 A bio based material is simply an engineering material made from substances derived from living matter. These materials are sometimes referred to as biomaterial s, but this word also has another meaning. Strictly the definition could include many common materials such as wood and leather , but it typically refers to modern materials that have undergone more extensive processing. Unprocessed materials may be called biotic material . Bio based materials or biomaterials fall under the broader category of bioproducts or bio based products which includes materials, chemicals and energy derived from renewable biological resources. Bio based materials are often biodegradable , but this is not always the case. Examples include cellulose fiber s Fibers made from reconstituted cellulose. casein A phosphoprotein extracted from milk during the process of creating low fat milk, it is processed in various ways to make plastic , dietary supplements for body builders, glue, cotton candy , protective coatings, paints, and occurs naturally in cheese, giving it a creamy texture. polylactic acid A polymer produced by industrial fermentation bioplastic s including a soy Vegetable oil oil based plastic now being used to make body panels for John Deere tractor s engineered wood products such as oriented strand board and particle board zein a natural biopolymer which is the most abundant corn protein cornstarch the starch of the maize grain, used to make packing pellets grease lubricants made from vegetable oils, including soybean oil, that can replace petroleum based lubricants DEFAULTSORT Bio Based Material Category Materials Category Green chemistry Category Materials stubs Material stub ... more details
