Series in BioEngineering,2196-88613-319-45715-2 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.Understanding Bioactive Materials -- Bioactivity in terms of hydroxyapatite -- Cytocompatibilty and pH balance -- Categories of bioactive materials -- Silicate, borate and borosilicate glasses -- Metallic glasses and coatings -- Mesoporous glasses -- Targeted Drug delivery -- Future and fate of bioactive materials.This book describes the history, origin and basic characteristics of bioactive materials. It includes a chapter dedicated to hydroxyapatite mineral, its formation and its bioactive properties. The authors address how cytotoxicity is a determining step for bioactivity. Applications of bioactive materials in the contexts of tissue regeneration, bone regeneration and cancer therapy are also covered. Silicate, metallic and mesoporous glasses are described, as well as the challenges and future prospects of research in this field.Series in BioEngineering,2196-8861Biomedical engineeringCeramicsGlassComposites (Materials)Composite materialsTribologyCorrosion and anti-corrosivesCoatingsBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700XCeramics, Glass, Composites, Natural Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z18000Tribology, Corrosion and Coatingshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z15000Biomedical engineering.Ceramics.Glass.Composites (Materials).Composite materials.Tribology.Corrosion and anti-corrosives.Coatings.Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineering.Ceramics, Glass, Composites, Natural Materials.Tribology, Corrosion and Coatings.610.28Kaur Gurbinderauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut875508MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910157475603321Bioactive Glasses1954812UNINA
