Preparation of polymeric biomaterials for their use in tissue engineering
Research line: Impact
Description of impact
Preparation of polymer biomaterials for reparation and substitution of alive tissue. This research line is focused in the study of 1) acrylic bone cements modified for total/partial prosthesis fixation and their use as therapeutic element for drug delivery; 2)preparation of polyurethane systems with controlable architecture by means of reaction of diisocyanates (biodegradable and non biodegradable) with polyfunctional branched structures, useful in bone tissue regeneration.
