Biocompatibility of engineered nanoparticles for drug delivery. (2013, background): “material's biocompatibility must be conducted with particular focus on the environment in which the biomaterial will be placed in [10].”
On the nature of biomaterials. (2009, background): “It may well be, as argued recently by myself [22], that the best performance of the vast majority of implantable devices is achieved when the biomaterials used in their construction are chemically and biologically inert; no biological, let alone pharmacological, activity should be sought in these de”
Nanoporous anodic aluminium oxide: Advances in surface engineering and emerging applications (2013, background): “High biocompatibility is a prerequisite for new biomaterials and it is defined as the ability of a material to perform with an appropriate host response in a specific situation [337].”
