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. It is an analytical device for the detection of an analyte that combines a biological component with a physicochemical detector.
Biosensor
Polypeptides
Fiber Bonding
Metallic Biomaterials
2. A type of biopolymer with short polymers of amino acids.
Polypeptides
Biopolymers
Membrane Lamination
Bioactive Materials
3. These are used in artificial hip joints - dental implants - bone plates and screws - heart pacemakers - stents - and other medical devices.
Biominerals
Metallic Biomaterials
Bioceramics
Biosensor
4. Materials that upon placement within the human body starts to dissolve (resorbed) and slowly replaced by advancing tissue (such as bone) i.e. tricalcium phosphate - polylactic- polyglycolic acid copolymers
Biominerals
Bioresorbable Materials
Bioceramics
Bioactive Materials
5. A type of biopolymer with long polymers composed of 13 or more nucleotide monomers.
Biosensor
Porous Materials
Polynucleotides
Polysaccharides
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
Polysaccharides
Biominerals
Metallic Biomaterials
Bioactive Materials
7. 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.
Bioactive Materials
