Sterilization processes – Revolutionary game changers in the field of biomaterials
Sterilization is most often defined as the process of making a host object free of surface bacteria or related microorganisms. The overall technique of sterilization can be broken down into 2 categories: Physical (irradiation, heat or steam) and Chemical (Ethylene oxide, ozone, glutaraldehyde, or phenols)….
In Vivo assessments of tissue compatibility in the synopsis
In vivo testing of a biomaterial refers to the methodology of testing a biomaterial in the living body of a plant or an animal. This is done in order to determine the biocompatibility of the biomaterial. US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), ASTM International, International…
In Vitro Assessment Of Tissue Compatibility – Revolutionary Techniques
A test performed outside of the living organism by making use of the isolated tissues, organs, and cells is known as in vitro testing. Studying microorganisms, human or animal cells in culture in a laboratory is usually known as in vitro testing. This process of…
An Easy Guide to Blood based effects on biomaterials
Blood compatibility and thrombogenicity are the two important host reactions that have to be evaluated before deploying any biomaterial into action. If the material is not tested for these two properties, there are chances that the developed material would trigger adverse host reactions like thrombosis,…
