{"product_id":"advanced-technologies-and-polymer-materials-sabu-thomas-9780128197509","title":"Advanced Technologies and Polymer Materials for Surgical Sutures","description":"Polymeric materials offer a high level of versatility due to the range of applications possible within the biomedical and clinical fields - including wound closure - particularly in comparison to metals or ceramics. These specialised materials also allow for a diverse array of therapeutic effects. Although there have been advances in improving polymeric materials for surgical sutures, there is little information available regarding improving the therapeutic value of sutures, and advanced technologies used to implement this improvement. \u003ci\u003eAdvanced Technologies and Polymer Materials for Surgical Sutures\u003c\/i\u003e provides thorough coverage on suture materials with improved mechanical and therapeutic properties that can improve quality of life; chapter topics include drug-releasing kinetics of sutures, shape memory polymer sutures and future trends. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is a useful resource for academics and researchers in the materials science and biomedical engineering fields, as well as professionals in biomaterials and biotextiles development and clinicians looking to learn more about suture material properties and suture\/body interactions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sabu Thomas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0128197501\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780128197509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Woodhead Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.68d","brand":"Sabu Thomas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076418597119,"sku":"9780128197509","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6730611b-5abd-44cf-a263-fcfcdf086d39.jpg?v=1685464881","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/advanced-technologies-and-polymer-materials-sabu-thomas-9780128197509","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
