Bioceramics 24
Description:
The proceedings of the 24th annual meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine (Bioceramics 24), held in Japan, comprise 133 peer-reviewed papers arranged into 13 chapters: I. Advanced Calcium Phosphate Ceramics; II. Porous Materials; III. Cements; IV. Coatings; V. in vivo Studies and Clinical Application; VI. Cell Studies and Cell-Material Interactions; VII. Composites; VIII. Drug Delivery Carriers; IX. Dental Materials; X. Metals; XI. Zirconia and Alumina Ceramics; XII. Nano-Materials; XIII. Sol-Gel Synthesis and Other Materials. They will be of great help in exploiting the merits of ceramics and in overcoming their weakness in applications involving polymers and metals.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Some 125 papers consider advanced calcium phosphate ceramics, porous materials, cements, coating, in vivo study and clinical application, cell studies and cell-materials interactions, composites, drug delivery carriers, dental materials, metals, zirconia and alumina ceramics, nano materials, and sol-gel synthesis and other materials. Among the topics are basic properties of starfish-derived calcium carbonate and its phase transformation to carbonate apatite, fabricating calcite foam by inverse ceramic foam method, changes in bone quality of the femoral diaphysics induced by high-level fluorine ingestion in ovarietomized rats, composite bioceramics/polymer electrospun scaffolds for regenerative medicine, and a new role for marine skeletal proteins in regenerative orthopedics.
