Development of a Bioactive Nanocomposite Using 3D Printing: For Bone Tissue Engineering Applications with Targeted Drug Delivery

Development of a Bioactive Nanocomposite Using 3D Printing for Bone Tissue Engineering Applications with Targeted Drug Delivery presents an in-depth exploration of innovative materials and advanced fabrication techniques for regenerative medicine. The book focuses on the design and synthesis of bioactive nanocomposites tailored for bone tissue repair, integrating the precision of 3D printing to achieve complex scaffold architectures. It examines the role of biocompatible polymers, ceramics, and nanoparticles in enhancing mechanical strength, osteoconductivity, and controlled degradation. Special emphasis is placed on incorporating targeted drug delivery systems within the scaffolds to promote healing, prevent infection, and support tissue regeneration. Through discussions on material characterization, fabrication parameters, and in-vitro/in-vivo evaluations, the book bridges material science, biomedical engineering, and clinical applications. It serves as a comprehensive reference for researchers, graduate students, and professionals in biomaterials and tissue engineering.
