The biocomposite area is extensive and spans from structured and solid biocomposites (e.g., reinforced bioabsorbable polymers), films (e.g., antimicrobial barriers), to soft biocomposites (e.g., use of alginates, collagen and nanocellulose as components in bioinks for 3D bioprinting). Key aspects in this respect are the appropriate engineering and production of biomaterials, nanofibres, bioplastics, their functionalization enabling intelligent and active materials, processes for effective manufacturing of biocomposites and the corresponding characterization for understanding their properties. The current Special Issue emphasizes the bio-technological engineering of novel biomaterials and biocomposites, considering also important safety aspects in the production and use of bio- and nanomaterials. 610 $aEncapsulation 610 $a3D Printing 610 $aSurface modification 610 $aMicrobiology 610 $aCellulose 610 $aBiocompatibility 610 $aScaffolds 700 $aGary Chinga Carrasco (Ed.)$4auth$01302725 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346677603321 996 $aNovel Biocomposite Engineering and Bio-Applications$93026479 997 $aUNINA
