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. This type of biomaterial processing is only useful if it preserves the uniform porous structure of the original membranes.
Polypeptides
Membrane Lamination
Bioactive Materials
Porous Materials
2. It is any substance (other than drugs) or combination of substances synthetic or natural in origin. It can be derived either from nature or synthesized in the laboratory using a variety of chemical approaches utilizing metallic components or ceramics

Porous Materials
Metallic Biomaterials
Bioresorbable Materials
3. A type of biopolymer with long polymers composed of 13 or more nucleotide monomers.
Polynucleotides
Bioceramics
Biomaterials
Fiber Bonding
4. This involves the use of a binder or by using the thermal method to fuse the fibers together.
Fiber Bonding
Membrane Lamination
Fibrous Composites

5. It is any material that - once placed in the human body - has minimal interaction with its surrounding tissue.
Biominerals
Polynucleotides
Porous Materials
Bioinert Materials
6. Type of biocomposites that consists of a matrix reinforced by a dispersed phase in form of particles.
Particulate Composites
Polypeptides
Bioresorbable Materials
Bioceramics
7. 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
Bioresorbable Materials
Polynucleotides
Particulate Composites
Bioceramics
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.
