Biological Interactions on Materials Surfaces Understanding and Controlling Protein, Cell, and Tissue Responses

Success or failure of biomaterials, whether tissue engineered constructs, joint and dental implants, vascular grafts, or heart valves, depends on molecular-level events that determine subsequent responses of cells and tissues. This book presents the latest developments and state-of-the-art knowledge...
