  A Note on Biomedical Biopolymers
  Author(s): Sathvik Arava*
  
  Biopolymers offer many uses in pharmaceutical and medical applications. Materials that can be used in biomedical applications such as wound healing, drug delivery, and tissue engineering are complex with biocompatibility, biodegradation into non-toxic products, low antigenicity, high bioactivity, appropriate porosity, and capacity. It must have certain properties, such as processability into a good shape, to support cell growth and proliferation, proper mechanical properties, and retention of mechanical strength. This paper provides an overview of biodegradable biopolymers, focusing on their potential in biomedical applications. The most commonly used and most abundantly available biopolymers are described with a focus on properties related to biomedical importance. .. View more»
