In the clothing industry it's common to mix natural and synthetic fibers. Take cotton and add polyester to make clothing that's soft, breathable and wrinkle free.Now researchers at the University of Washington are using the same principle for biomedical applications. Mixing chitosan, found in ...
Biomaterials are mostly any natural and synthetic materials which are compatible from a biological point of view with the human body. Biomaterials are widely used to sustain, increase, reestablish or substitute the biological function of any injured tissue and organ from the human body. Additionally...
A natural product is a chemical or substance that was created naturally—that is, by a living thing and may be found in nature. Natural products broadly speaking encompass everything created by living things. Via offering demanding synthetic targets, natural products have played a crucial role in...
. Cellulose on acetylation, with acetic anhydride and the addition of sulfuric acid, produces polycellulose diacetate, which is used in making thread and materials such as films and glasses. 3.1.3 Synthetic polymers Synthetic polymers are synthesized in laboratories from low-molecular-weight compounds...

Polymer might be called biopolymer if it is biobased (produced by the living organism) or/and biodegradable. They are divided into two groups. The first group of biopolymers (natural) is obtained from living organisms, while the second one (synthetic) is produced during the polymerization of se...
Biomimetic materials have emerged as attractive and competitive alternatives for tissue engineering (TE) and regenerative medicine. In contrast to conventional biomaterials or synthetic materials, biomimetic scaffolds based on natural biomaterial can off
The majority of these scaffolds are composite materials, often with synthetic components, primarily to provide strength to the scaffold, necessary to hold sutures and withstand the mechanical loads at the implant site and/or tissue. Here, we overview the products available as collagen type I based...
