Description: Collected in this journal's volume articles describe the research results of microstructure and magnetic properties of nanocrystalline intermetallic compound as a function of milling time in the mechanical alloying; the influence of phase separation effect in gelation of bioactive glass on morphology the end product and process of preparation the fluoro-hydroxyapatite ceramics, which are intended for use in the biomedical practice for bone treatment. The photocatalytic properties of nanostructured zinc oxide for degradation of methylene blue dye were also studied. This volume will be helpful to a wide range of engineers and scientists whose activity is related to the usage of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies.

Description: "Bioceramics 28" (proceedings of the 28th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine, held October 18 to 21, 2016, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA) describes the most recent research efforts in the development of new methods for synthesis and characterization of bioceramics for various applications in the medical field. The multidisciplinary nature of the field of bioceramics has brought together contributions from authors with wide diversity of backgrounds including, clinicians, engineers and scientists. The chapters of the book demonstrate the extensive research efforts directed to exploit the application of bioceramic as a delivery system for anticancer drugs, antibiotics, growth factors, peptides and therapeutic ions. Moreover, the methods of manufacturing and processing of bioceramics as bulk, coating on substrate, gel, porous granules or cement are described.

Description: The Symposium and Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine, known as Bioceramics, provides a valuable forum where scientists and clinicians working in the dental and medical fields can discuss the exciting advances made in basic and applied research, and promote new technologies and applications of ceramics in medicine. These proceedings comprise 174 papers presented at the 23rd Symposium and Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine (ISCM) held on November 6-9th, 2011 in Istanbul, Turkey. In Bioceramics 23, the papers have been categorized into 21 of the most topical and essential themes of ceramics in medicine: including characterization, design and processing technologies, tissue engineering, nanotechnology, surface modification, composites, drug delivery and interdisciplinary studies. The work will thus be of great help in taking advantage of the merits of ceramics, and overcoming their weakness in various applications involving polymers and metals.

Nanoscience is revolutionizing the design of medical devices, tissue scaffolding and drug-delivery systems. New discoveries regarding nano-system, made in other research areas, have opened up the possibility of using them in biomedicine. However, such nanoscience and its possibilities, which sometimes border on science fiction, have to be kept in perspective so as not to lose sight of the limitations with respect to safety that applications within the human body impose.
