Objectives

Programme

Classification of biomaterials, biopolymers, structure-property relationship

Biocompatible materials, biocompatibility profiles 2 hours

Chemical and enzymatic synthesis and modification of biopolymers, biomaterials 2 hours

Internal tensions in biocomposites and their control. 2 hours

Nanostructures: characteristics and application, nanocapsules, polymer micelles, dendrimers, nanocomposites, preparation and structure relationship 2 hours

Preparation and processing technologies of biomaterials (freeze drying, extrusion, sc. technologies, electrospinning etc.), surface modification methods 2 hours

Biodegradation, stability, bioresponses to foreign materials 2 hours

Biomimetic materials, biomaterials of natural origin 2 óra

Examples of application of biomaterials:

Environmental technologies, cardiovascular materials, stents 2 hours

Biopolymers of medical aids, implants 2 hours

Bones, joints replacement, dentristic biocomposites 2 hours

Ophthalmic biomaterials, tissue replacing biostructures 2 hours

Drug delivery (intravenous, peroral, transdermal, pulmonary, etc.) biomaterials 2 hours

The subject aims at getting the students acquainted with the use of materials in biomedical applications, the excipients of biologically active materials, the concepts of the selection and preparation of biocompatible materials, their physical-chemical properties, and their use in the technology of medical products with special emphasis on the controlled release of drugs. The lectures include the classification of biomaterials; chemical and enzymatic reactions in relation to biomaterials (synthesis, modification and decomposition), macromolecular systems of environmental technologies, the relevant biodegradable polymers, macromolecular bases of pharmaceutical technologies (such as the preparation of nanocapsules, implants and their application). Special emphasis is put on the manufacturing technologies of biocomposites. All of these topics are established by the relevant basic summary regarding the considerations of material science, surface modification and analytics as well as physical chemistry of smart biomaterials. The seminars promote the understanding of the interactions between different classes of materials and many tissues of the human body. Topics such as soft tissue replacement, biosensors, bio-devices and pharmaceuticals are included in the lectures as well.
