Octacalcium Phosphate Biomaterials: Past, Present and Future is a comprehensive study of Octacalcium Phosphate (OCP), a next generation biomaterial for bone regeneration. By focussing both on fundamental research and use of OCP as a scaffold material, this book explores its potenial to deliver improved clinical results. OCP is known to be a pre-cursor to hydroxyapatite in the human biomineralisation process that forms bone and tooth enamel. Research studies that have emerged in recent years suggest OCP's tremendous potential as a bioactive material. Early chapters in the book discuss OCP's effects on bone cell activity, cellular interactions and their role in bone formation, repair and replacement. Later chapters cover topics including drug delivery, synthesis methodologies and future analysis techniques. This book is an invaluable and unique resource for researchers, clinicians, students and industrialists in the area of orthopaedics and dentistry, enabling the reader to understand the most up-to-date work completed globally on Octacalcium Phosphate, and acting as a reference point for new research and activity. Contains comprehensive up-to-date information on the basic science plus the physical, chemical and biological properties and clinical potential of Octacalcium Phosphate BiomaterialsA reference point for new research and increased activity in the area of next generation smarter biomaterials for hard tissue repair and regenerationEdited by Laurence Chow who first reported the idea of manmade synthetic materials as scaffolds for human bone repair INDICE: 1.
