It is the aim of the journal to provide a peer-reviewed forum for the publication of original papers and authoritative review papers dealing with the most important issues facing the use of materials in clinical practice. The scope of the journal covers the basic science and engineering aspects of biomaterials, including their mechanical, physical, chemical and biological properties, relevant design and production characteristics of devices constructed of these materials, and their clinical performance. In this context, biomaterials are defined as all those materials used in medical devices in which contact with the tissues of the patient is an important and guiding feature of their use and performance. They include a range of metals and alloys, glasses and ceramics, natural synthetics, polymers, biomimetics, composites and natural or tissue-derived materials, including combinations of synthetic materials and living tissue components. The journal is relevant to all applications of biomaterials including implantable medical devices, tissue engineering and drug delivery systems." 531 $aBIOMATERIAL 531 $aBIOMATER 531 0 $aBiomaterials 606 $aBiomedical materials$vPeriodicals 606 $aBiomedical materials 606 $aBiocompatible Materials 606 $aBiocompatible Materials$vPeriodicals 606 $aBiocompatible Materials$xperiodicals 606 $aBiomatériaux$vPériodiques 606 $aBiomatériaux 606 $aBiomedical materials$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00832586 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 610 $aBioengineering materials$aPeriodicals 615 0$aBiomedical materials 615 0$aBiomedical materials. 615 2$aBiocompatible Materials 615 2$aBiocompatible Materials 615 2$aBiocompatible Materials$xperiodicals. 615 6$aBiomatériaux 615 6$aBiomatériaux. 615 7$aBiomedical materials. 676 $a610.28 712 02$aBiological Engineering Society. 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a996202286003316 996 $aBiomaterials$9799313 997 $aUNISA
