Further information on the subject (current semester):
Responsible person and department:
Dr. Beáta Szolnoki, Organic Chemisty and Technology Department
Lecturer:
Dr. Marosi György professor, Organic Chemisty and Technology Department
Subject is based on:
Physical chemistry
Requisities:
Recommended: physical chemistry
Aim of the subject:
The subject aims at getting the students acquainted with the use of materials in biomedical applications, the excipients of biologically active materials, the concepts of the selection and preparation of biocompatible materials, their physical-chemical properties, and their use in the technology of medical products with special emphasis on the controlled release of drugs. The lectures include the classification of biomaterials; chemical and enzymatic reactions in relation to biomaterials (synthesis, modification and decomposition), macromolecular systems of environmental technologies, the relevant biodegradable polymers, macromolecular bases of pharmaceutical technologies (such as the preparation of nanocapsules, implants and their application). Special emphasis is put on the manufacturing technologies of biocomposites. All of these topics are established by the relevant basic summary regarding the considerations of material science, surface modification and analytics as well as physical chemistry of smart biomaterials. The seminars promote the understanding of the interactions between different classes of materials and many tissues of the human body. Topics such as soft tissue replacement, biosensors, bio-devices and pharmaceuticals are included in the lectures as well.
