Description
Description
Marine-Derived Hydroxyapatite: Synthesis, Characterization, and Biomedical Applications explores how marine byproducts - such as coral, fish bones, and seashells - can be used to synthesis unique biomaterials for biomedical applications. This book outlines sustainable extraction methods, innovative synthesis techniques, and advanced techniques for analyzing the structure and properties of marine-derived hydroxyapatite, as well as the role of this material in bone repair, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. Chapters provide clear guidance on production methods, reproducibility challenges, regulatory considerations, and clinical applications, offering practical guidance for researchers and professionals in materials science, biomedical engineering, and marine biology. Marine-Derived Hydroxyapatite: Synthesis, Characterization, and Biomedical Applications brings together knowledge from multiple disciplines, addressing the need for eco-friendly and biocompatible alternatives to synthetic materials.
