Biomimetic and Bioinspired Composite Processing for Biomedical Applications

An emerging discipline of research called biomimetics fine-tunes engineering and design biomaterials to replicate biological structure and functions by adapting natural operating principles. The main goal of the application is to make medical implants that can replace both hard and soft tissues. To accomplish the necessary biological function with a minimally adverse biological reaction, the design as well as development of the multifunctional smart biomaterials that are compatible with human physiology is essential. To increase life expectancy and improve the quality of life, several biosensors, biomimetic medication delivery systems, and medical bio implants have been tried. We critically evaluate this method's benefits above simple biomimicry and how it differs from bio-integrated design as a systematic tool for presenting creative solutions to difficult situations. Using examples from the area of biomedicine, where most of the inspiration is still more tightly focused on imitation or bio-integration, the extent of the applicability of the nature-inspired method is shown. The tools, techniques, and applications within these domains that may be helpful in biomedical engineering and human health will be reviewed in this chapter. Examples include genome editing and the creation of quorum-sensing systems. We'll talk about notable developments, such as those in cell therapy, cancer diagnostics and treatment, microbiome engineering, and vaccine development. Finally, there will be discussion of these disciplines’ difficulties and prospects.
