- Summary
- "Supported with 140 illustration, the volume thoroughly covers the micro and nanosystem technologies involved in developing cell-based bioengineering applications. Readers obtain full details on efforts to engineer the soluble and insoluble cell microenvironments, including the latest advances in microfluidic devices, surface patterning, 3D scaffolds, and techniques for engineering cellular mechanical properties and topography. This book systematically reviews emerging biomedical applications, including the latest in embryonic cell development, microfabrication of artificial neural tissue, and microvascular and cardiac tissue engineering. Moreover, this resource covers biomaterials for cartilage tissue, bone tissue engineering, kidney replacement therapies, and pulmonary applications. Furthermore, this book presents the latest advances in hepatic tissue engineering, immune cell analysis, and the development of engineered skin substitutes."--BOOK JACKET.
