Biologically Responsive Biomaterials for Tissue Engineering
Developments in the area of biomaterials, bionanotechnology, tissue engineering, and medical devices are becoming the core of health care. Almost all medical specialties involve the use of biomaterials, and research plays a key role in the development of new and improved treatment modalities. This volume focuses on several current trends in tissue engineering, remodelling and regeneration. Leading researchers describe the use of nanomaterials to create new functionalities when interfaced with biological molecules or structures. In addition to coverage of basic science and engineering aspects, a range of applications in bionanotechnology are presented, including diagnostic devices, contrast agents, analytical tools, physical therapy applications, and vehicles for targeted drug delivery. The use of polymers, alloys, and composites, or a combination of these, for biomaterials applications in orthopaedics is also explored. These contributions represent essential reading for the biomaterials and biomedical engineering communities, and can serve as instructional course lectures targeted at graduate and post-graduate students.

Innovative Materials and Techniques for Osteochondral Repair
The book presents research in treating focal joint cartilage defects. Lipoaspirate fluid (LAF) cells have important applications in such areas as orthopedics, general surgery, plastic and repair or vascular surgery. Also discussed are cartilage tissue regeneration therapies using collagen scaffolds and multipotent mesenchymal cells; this offers the possibility of making real "biological arthroplasties". The regeneration of cartilage tissue by injecting stem cell concentrates gives hope to patients suffering from cartilage degradation. Keywords: Biomaterials, Osteochondral Repair, Lipoaspirate Fluid (LAF) Cells, Arthrosis, Focal Joint Cartilage Defects, Physiopathology of Cartilage Lesions, Diagnosis of Cartilage Lesions, Treatment of Cartilage Lesions, Plastic Surgery, Vascular Surgery, Repair Surgery, Orthopedics, Biological Arthroplasties.
