Surface modification of biomaterials plays a significant role in determining the outcome of biological-material interactions. With the appropriate modification a material's surface can be tailored to improve biocompatibility, adhesion and cell interactions. Consequently surface modification is vital in the development and design of new biomaterials and medical devices. Surface Modification of Biomaterials provides readers with a comprehensive guide to the most pertinent surface modification techniques and technologies. Part one covers chemical surface modification methods whilst part two discusses topography and analysis methods. The final section of the book examines applications of this important technology.
