| Kurzbeschreibung
Biodegradable polymers used in clinical applications, such as absorbable sutures, are implantable polymers that degrade and eliminate from the body within a set time period. Here is the first comprehensive review of all biodegradable polymers that are currently in use in clinical application or development, with coverage of such applications as absorbable implants, orthopedic plates, nanoparticles, and drug delivery. The book covers the chemistry of each polymer (including synthesis, characterization, biodegradability, and mechanical properties), toxicity and safety aspects, and clinical applications.
