Bioceramics has evolved into a major field of study having important implications for humankind's future health and wellbeing. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).The Bioceramics-14 monograph contains more than 160 papers with representations from over 20 countries. The topics range from totally inert, load-bearing materials, such as alumina, zirconia, silicon nitride and diamond to bioreactive materials such as calcium phosphates and bioglasses. The latter have great potential for aiding grafting, bone repair, drug-delivery, and implant-fixation to living tissues. |
