This book focusses on the development of biomedical membranes and their applications for (bio)artificial organs. It covers the state of art and main challenges for applying synthetic membranes in these organs. It also highlights the importance of accomplishing an integration of engineering with biology and medicine to understand and manage the scientific, industrial, clinical and ethical aspects of these organs.

The compendium consists of 11 chapters, written by world renowned experts in the fields of membrane technology, biomaterials science and technology, cell biology, medicine and engineering. Every chapter describes the clinical needs and the materials, membranes, and concepts required for the successful development of the (bio)artificial organs.

This text is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in biomedical engineering, materials science and membrane science and technology, as well as, for professionals and researchers working in these fields.

Contents:

  • Controlled Drug Release Systems: Mechanisms and Kinetics (M Sanopoulou and K G Papadokostaki)
  • Membranes for Artificial Kidneys (J Vienken)
  • Advanced Blood Purification Therapies (O ter Beek, I Geremia, D Pavlenko and D Stamatialis)
  • Membranes for Artificial Lung and Gas Exchange Applications (F Wiese)
  • Membranes for Bioartificial Kidney Devices (N Chevtchik, P Caetano Pinto, R Masereeuw and D Stamatialis)
  • Membrane-Based Bioartificial Liver Devices (S Khakpour, H M M Ahmed and L De Bartolo)
  • Are Co-Culture Approaches Able to Improve Biological Functions of Bioartificial Livers? (V Pandolfi, U Pereira, M Dufresne and C Legallais)
  • Membranes for Bioartificial Pancreas: Macroencapsulation Strategies (K Skrzypek, M G Nibbelink, M Karperien, A van Apeldoorn and D Stamatialis)
  • Early Health Economic Evaluation of Bioartificial Organs: Involving Users in the Design of the Bioartificial Pancreas for Diabetes (M J IJzerman, T Wissing and E de Koning)
  • Membranes for Regenerative Medicine in Clinical Applications (G F D'Urso Labate and G Catapano)
  • Membranes for Organs-on-Chips (M P Tibbe, A D van der Meer, A van den Berg, D Stamatialis and L I Segerink)

Readership: Researchers, professionals, undergraduate and graduate students in biomedical engineering, bioengineering and membrane science and technology.
