The Journal of Biomaterials Applications is a fully peer reviewed international journal that publishes original research and review articles that emphasize the development, manufacture and clinical applications of biomaterials.
Peer-reviewed articles by biomedical specialists from around the world cover:
New developments in biomaterials, R&D, properties and performance, evaluation and applications
Applications in biomedical materials and devices - from sutures and wound dressings to biosensors and cardiovascular devices
Current findings in biological compatibility/incompatibility of biomaterials
The Journal of Biomaterials Applications publishes original articles that emphasize the development, manufacture and clinical applications of biomaterials. Biomaterials continue to be one of the most rapidly growing areas of research today and certainly one of the biggest technical challenges, and in particular the interaction of the surrounding tissues and cells on the biomaterials is critical to performance, and vice versa. The Journal cuts across disciplines and focuses on medical research and topics that present the broadest view of practical applications of biomaterials in actual clinical use.
The Journal of Biomaterial Applications is devoted to new and emerging biomaterials technologies, particularly focusing on the many applications which are under development at industrial biomedical and polymer research facilities, as well as the ongoing activities in academic, medical and applied clinical uses of devices.
