Nanomedicine © Woodhead Publishing Limited, 2012 Related titles: Biomaterials for artifi cial organs (ISBN 978-1-84569-653-5) Demand for organ transplants far exceeds available donor organs. As a result some patients may die whilst waiting for a transplant. Advances in biomaterials have gen- erated a range of materials and devices for either use outside the body or implanta- tion to replace or assist functions which may have been lost through disease or injury. Part I covers technologies which are well established within the fi eld. Chapters in Part II discuss more recent advances in the discipline whilst Part III covers the tech- nologies which are likely to become widely used in the near future. Biomaterials for artifi cial organs provides readers with a thorough review of the current status and future outlook of this important fi eld. Electrospinning for tissue regeneration (ISBN 978-1-84569-741-9) E lectrospinning is most commonly associated with textile manufacturing. However, recent research and development have proven that the technology can be used to create organ components and repair damaged tissues. This novel approach to tissue repair and regeneration is being widely employed within the biomaterials sector as it produces nanofi bres which create the correct physical environment to promote cell migration and new tissue formation. The fi rst part of the book provides an intro- duction to the fi eld with information on chemistry, process control and regulatory issues. The second group of chapters discuss electrospinning for skin and bone tissue regeneration. The fi nal group of chapters analyse electrospinning for stem cell and wound healing applications. Drug-device combination products: delivery technologies and applications (ISBN 978-1-84569-470-8) Drug delivery systems represent a vast area of research and development within biomaterials and medicine and the demand for sophisticated drug delivery devices continues to drive developments. Advanced drug delivery devices can offer signif- icant advantages to conventional drugs, such as increased effi ciency and conven- ience. Chapters in Part I discuss specifi c applications such as drug eluting stents and antimicrobial cements. Part II covers the development of drug device combination products with such topics as preclinical testing and regulation of products. This book provides a thorough analysis of the fundamentals, applications and new technologies of drug-device combination products for use throughout the human body.
