Gewebeverträglichkeit
Gewebeverträglichkeit, often translated as biocompatibility, refers to the ability of a material, device, or implant to interact with biological tissues without causing an adverse local or systemic response. This concept is crucial in the development and application of medical implants, prosthetics, surgical tools, and drug delivery systems. A material is considered biocompatible if it does not provoke an unwanted immune reaction, inflammation, toxicity, or carcinogenicity in the host organism.
The assessment of Gewebeverträglichkeit involves a series of tests, ranging from in vitro studies using cell
Different applications require varying degrees of Gewebeverträglichkeit. For instance, an implant intended for long-term contact with
