Factors affecting the performance of these biomaterials are presented, and precautionary measures to reduce premature, hydrolytic degradation during manufacturing and processing are discussed. Because of the structural requirements of medical devices and the technological advancements in synthetic fibers and textile technology, the new field of "Biotextiles" has evolved to exploit the potential of various woven, knitted, braided and non-woven textile structures for biomedical applications. Textile substrates provide certain unique mechanical properties to the medical device and because of an inherently high level of porosity, they can encourage cell growth and promote migration and proliferation. Bioresorbable devices that assist in the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues have in recent years replaced many of the permanent prosthetic devices. Thus, the topic of ?Bioresorbable Biomaterials? generates much interest and research activity in the field of biomaterials science today. For this reason, the use of bioresorbable polymers as fibers is currently dominating the field of resorbable biomaterials for applications from sutures to tissue engineering scaffolds. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Materials,$x2192-1091 606 $aBiomaterials 606 $aPolymers 606 $aRegenerative medicine 606 $aTissue engineering 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aTextile industry 606 $aBiomaterials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z13000 606 $aPolymer Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008 606 $aRegenerative Medicine/Tissue Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16080 606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700X 606 $aTextile Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C24000 615 0$aBiomaterials. 615 0$aPolymers. 615 0$aRegenerative medicine. 615 0$aTissue engineering. 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 0$aTextile industry. 615 14$aBiomaterials. 615 24$aPolymer Sciences. 615 24$aRegenerative Medicine/Tissue Engineering. 615 24$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 615 24$aTextile Engineering. 676 $a610.28 700 $aGajjar$b Chirag R$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01060639 702 $aKing$b Martin W$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298650203321 996 $aResorbable Fiber-Forming Polymers for Biotextile Applications$92514716 997 $aUNINA
