Abstract Since the second half of the 20th century, bioceramics are used for bone repair and regeneration. Inspired by bones and teeth, and aimed at mimicking their structure and composition, several artificial bioceramics were developed for biomedical applications. And nowadays, in the 21st century, with the increasing prominence of nanoscience and nanotechnology, certain bioceramics are being used to build smart drug delivery systems, among other applications. This minireview will mainly describe both tendencies through the research work carried out by the research team of María Vallet-Regí.

生物陶瓷：从骨替代品到用于药物输送的纳米颗粒


摘要 20世纪下半叶以来，生物陶瓷被用于骨修复和再生。受骨骼和牙齿的启发，为了模仿它们的结构和成分，开发了几种用于生物医学应用的人造生物陶瓷。如今，在 21 世纪，随着纳米科学和纳米技术的日益突出，某些生物陶瓷被用于构建智能药物输送系统等应用。这篇小评论将主要通过 María Vallet-Regí 研究团队进行的研究工作来描述这两种趋势。
