Nanobiomaterials

Abstract

Nanobiomaterial is a multidisciplinary scientific field with roots in life science, material science and nanotechnology. The basic and application researches of nanobiomaterials have been the hot topic in the materials research for biomedicine and biotechnology, which have developed quickly in biomedical implant and intervention medicine, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, and drug/gene delivery system. This review focuses on the potential of nanobiomaterials including biocompatible surface, tissue engineering and regenerative materials, new drug/gene delivery system and bioanalysis system, with an attempt to explore their possible applications in clinical practice.
