“…Scaffoldings of ceramics which are temporary, make up the third generation of ceramics. These have the ability of osteo-induction as well as biodegradability such as several soluble calcium phosphate ceramics [15]. The mechanical strength of metals and the superb biocompatibility of polymers and ceramics is a promising combination to attain flawless and superior biomedical implants.…”

Treatments in healthcare utilizing implants, grafts, carriers and scaffolds divulge conspicuous and dire need of perfectly complementary materials which opens new vistas for research and other exploration in this field. The vast array and assemblage of various combinations of biomaterials have evinced immaculate promising applications in healthcare sector without excluding the fact that suitability and intricacy of the constructs is equally significant. This manuscript is an attempt to sort out the agglomeration of biomaterials as well as to provide a more explicit manifestation of the eminent giant leaps in the biomedical applications. Shortage of human organs essential for liver transplantation has led to the explorations in the tissue engineering arena. This manuscript specifically highlights most of the pertinent developments in the vicinity of liver tissue engineering utilizing polymers and composites. Tissue engineered products having live cells are less susceptible to immune rejection. Hence, this potent phenomenon which utilizes scaffolds of biomaterials has been discussed here thoroughly.

“…Despite the huge research efforts worldwide in this field, it is difficult to obtain a biomaterial able to satisfy most of the requirements need for effective bone regeneration. A better choice for BTE is to use a composite system [8,9], which confers not only mechanical properties but also osteoconduction and osteointegration.…”

Bone grafts are used in a wide array of clinical settings to augment bone repair and regeneration. This article reports a new method for the elaboration of a hybrid biomaterial in the form of sponge based on collagen gel, CaCO 3 from recycled Rapana thomasiana seashell, and Na 2 HPO 4 $2H 2 O. Practically, collagen acts as a matrix through which calcium and phosphate ions are diffusing during in situ hydroxyapatite synthesis. The organiceinorganic interactions among biomaterial components have been studied by infrared spectroscopy, and the surface morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy technique. Moreover, the developed biomaterials were studied for in vitro biocompatibility with MG63 human osteoblasts. The results obtained demonstrated that the developed hybrid material does not exhibit a significant cytotoxicity and supports cell proliferation. Consequently, it holds great promise for applications in bone tissue engineering.
