Inhaltsangabe

Handbook of Tissue Engineering Scaffolds: Volume One, provides a comprehensive and authoritative review on recent advancements in the application and use of composite scaffolds in tissue engineering. Chapters focus on specific tissue/organ (mostly on the structure and anatomy), the materials used for treatment, natural composite scaffolds, synthetic composite scaffolds, fabrication techniques, innovative materials and approaches for scaffolds preparation, host response to the scaffolds, challenges and future perspectives, and more. Bringing all the information together in one major reference, the authors systematically review and summarize recent research findings, thus providing an in-depth understanding of scaffold use in different body systems.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Handbook of Tissue Engineering Scaffolds provides a comprehensive and authoritative review on recent advancements in the application and use of composite scaffolds in tissue engineering. The book has a strong materials science focus. Each chapter provides:

1. An introduction into the specific tissue/organ (mostly on the structure and anatomy)
2. A brief history of the materials used for the treatment of this tissue/organ
3. Natural composite scaffolds
4. Synthetic composite scaffolds
5. Fabrication techniques
6. Innovative materials and approaches for scaffolds preparation
7. Host response to the scaffolds
8. Challenges and future perspectives
9. Conclusion and remarks

Chapters discuss and critically review the latest research findings that have occurred over the last few years. Written by leading experts in the field the chapters cover a broad range of different disciplines in tissue engineering applications including natural and synthetic polymers, ceramics, metals and their composites that have been used for the synthesis of scaffolds for human tissue and organs.

Bringing all the information together in one major reference, the authors systematically review and summarize recent research findings providing an in depth understanding of the role of scaffolds and their application and use in different body systems.
