Biomaterials and Biological Materials

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Marine Biological Materials of Invertebrate Origin

Part of the book series: Biologically-Inspired Systems ((BISY,volume 13))

Abstract

Broad diversity of biological systems including cells, tissues and organisms are able to produce individual organic, inorganic as well as composite-based materials known as biomaterials. Structure and chemistry of corresponding phases within biocomposites have been recognized on a microscopic or macroscopic size scale using modern analytical instruments. Nowadays, not only bio-inert materials, but mostly biocompatible and biodegradable materials attract attention of experts in regenerative medicine, wound healing, surface coatings and tissue engineering. This short chapter deals with classification and history of biomaterials.

The union of biology with materials science and engineering represents one of the most exciting scientific prospects of our time. As currently few biologists know much about engineering and even fewer engineers know much about biology, the expectations of future advances seem unbounded.

Robert O. Ritchie, 2008
