Biomedical Product and Materials Evaluation: Standards and Ethics

Biomedical Product and Materials Evaluation: Standards and Ethics provides a much-needed overview of the procedures, issues, standards and ethical issues in the early development of biomedical products. Success in the development and approval of biomedical products can be difficult to achieve, given strict regulations and monitoring by governing bodies, as well as the differing issues encountered across product types.

This book covers a range of key biomedical products, from 3D printed organs and blood derived products, to stem calls and decellularized tissue products. Each chapter reviews a single product type; associated materials and biomedical applications, proven development strategies and potential challenges. The core focus of the book is on the standardization and ethical aspects of biomedical product development, with these elements addressed and discussed in chapters dedicated to product evaluation. This book offers readers a single resource that covers a variety of biomedical product types, as well as tested and proven development strategies to adhere to strict standards and ethical considerations.

Biomedical Product and Materials Evaluation: Standards and Ethics is a useful reference for academics, researchers and industry professionals in R&D groups with an interest in biomaterial research and production, as well as those working in the fields of biomedical engineering, biotechnology and toxicology.
