Popis:	Biological tissue shows amazing characteristics and has functions that cannot be easily reproduced by artificial synthesis. For example, bone tissue shows fracture toughness though it is soft in nature. Therefore, learning from biological systems gives us tremendous opportunities to fabricate materials that we have not yet been able to produce. The ionically substituted HAp materials or organic-containing HAp materials introduced in this chapter are good candidates for drug delivery carriers for bone regeneration or bone-related diseases. Organic/inorganic composite gel materials fabricated by self-precipitation or by a cell-based method would be neo-bone tissue that could shorten the bone regeneration period. Thus, apatite related biomaterials inspired by nature have potential for numerical biomedical applications.
