Tissue Engineering: Principles for the Design of Replacement Organs and Tissues |
|
|
From Book News, Inc.
Saltzman (chemical and biomedical engineering, Yale U.) developed the volume from his lecture notes for graduate and senior undergraduate courses attended mostly by students of engineering. He begins by presenting developmental biology as a foundational science; and exploring certain areas of biology that are presumed fundamental to practicing tissue engineering, among them the adhesion, growth, and motility of cells. The third section focuses on tissue enginee... >> |

Book Description
Progress in the development of surgical implant materials has been hindered by the lack of basic information available on the nature of the tissues, organs, and systems being repaired or replaced. However a considerable body of data has accumulated concerning the materials aspect of both implantable materials and natural tissues and fluids, broadly distributed in various publications, with varying degrees of accuracy and precision. This handbook draws together... >> |
