"Polymer scientists have made an extensive research for the development of biodegradable polymers which could find enormous applications in the area of medical science. Today, various biopolymers have been prepared and utilized in different biomedical applications. Despite the apparent proliferation of biopolymers in medical science, the Science and Technology of biopolymers is still in its early stages of development. Tremendous opportunities exist and will continue to exist for the penetration of biopolymers in every facet of medical science through intensive Research and Development. Therefore, this chapter addresses different polymerization methods and techniques employed for the preparation of biopolymers. An emphasis is given to cover the general properties of biopolymers, synthetic protocols and their biomedical applications. In order to make the useful biomedical devices from the polymers to meet the demands of medical science, various processing techniques employed for the development of devices have been discussed. Further, perspectives in this field have been highlighted and at the end arrived at the conclusions. The relevant literature was collected from different sources including Google sites, books and reviews"-- Biopolymers Biodegradable plastics Kumbar Sangamesh editor of compilation Laurencin Cato editor of compilation Deng Meng editor of compilation https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/unibern/detail.action?docID=1619549 Uni Bern: Volltext https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780123969835 Uni Bern: Volltext BK020053 XK020053 XK020000 Ebook Central All Subscribed Titles ScienceDirect eBooks E-Books von 360MarcUpdates IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4051809 IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4051809 IDSBB 700 1- Kumbar Sangamesh editor of compilation IDSBB 700 1- Laurencin Cato editor of compilation IDSBB 700 1- Deng Meng editor of compilation IDSBB 856 40 https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/unibern/detail.action?docID=1619549 Uni Bern: Volltext IDSBB 856 40 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780123969835 Uni Bern: Volltext SWISSBIB 313532796
