.
Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.
This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Type of biocomposites that consists of a matrix reinforced by a dispersed phase in form of discontinuous fibers.
Fibrous Composites
Biomaterials
Polypeptides
Biosensor
2. They are also known as renewable polymers and these are produced from biomass for use in the packaging industry.
Polypeptides
Polynucleotides
Membrane Lamination
Biopolymers
3. A type of biopolymer with long polymers composed of 13 or more nucleotide monomers.
Biomaterials
Polynucleotides
Membrane Lamination
Biocomposites
4. They are materials formed by a matrix (resin) and a reinforcement of natural fibers (usually derived from plants or cellulose).
Polysaccharides
Bioceramics
Fibrous Composites
Biocomposites
5. A type of biopolymer with linear bonded polymeric carbohydrate structures.
Porous Materials
Polysaccharides
Membrane Lamination
Polypeptides
6. Materials which upon being placed within the human body interacts with the surrounding bone and in some cases - even soft tissue i.e. Synthetic hydroxyapatite - glass ceramic A-W - bioglass
Biomaterials
Polynucleotides
Bioactive Materials
Bioinert Materials
7. It is any material that - once placed in the human body - has minimal interaction with its surrounding tissue.
Biosensor
Biominerals
Bioinert Materials
Porous Materials
8. Also known as hard materials and it usually has a mechanical function - being strong - hard materials which use less energy for an organism to produce than an equally strong organic material.
Polysaccharides
Polypeptides
Biominerals
Biopolymers
9. Type of biocomposites - a material which consists of voids/pores.
Porous Materials
Bioceramics

10. This type of biomaterial processing is only useful if it preserves the uniform porous structure of the original membranes.
Membrane Lamination
Metallic Biomaterials
Fiber Bonding
Particulate Composites
11. It functions as joint or tissue replacements - can be used as coatings to improve the biocompatibility of metal implants. They are also non - toxic and can be bioinert.
Bioceramics
