A biomaterial is a nonviable, biocompatible material used in a medical device, intended to interact with biological systems or to evaluate, treat, augment or replace any tissue, organ, or function of the body.
No, shells are biomaterial, not rocks.

nothing. it's edible, biomaterial. though kinda gross
Ceramics, categorized as inorganic and non-metallic biomaterial, have drawn increasing attention as they possess excellent biocompatibility and high resistance to corrosion.
Hydroxyapatite is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite. It is the primary mineral component of vertebrate bone and tooth enamel. In medical and dental applications, hydroxyapatite is used as a biomaterial for bone tissue repair and regeneration.
Nanotechnology in biochemistry involves manipulating and studying biological molecules at the nanometer scale. It allows for precise control and manipulation of biomolecules for various applications, such as drug delivery, imaging, and biomaterial development. Nanotechnology in biochemistry has the potential to revolutionize healthcare and advance our understanding of biological systems at the molecular level.
Actually, hair is part of your excretory system. It's another way for the body to remove waste. Makes you rethink your hair, doesn't it? :P
Biomaterials are important because they can be used in medical applications like tissue engineering, drug delivery systems, and medical implants. They are biocompatible, meaning they interact well with biological systems without causing harm. Biomaterials also provide an opportunity to repair, replace, or enhance tissue or organ function in ways that were not possible before.
Biomaterial is any substances other than drug, which can be a combination of synthetic and natural material, that can be used in treatment or replacement of any tissue organ or function of the body. For example contact lens, prosthetic implants, stents, artifical heart valve etc Biological material are natural material which is already present inside a living organism. For example many protein, cellulose, collagen, cells, chitin etc.
It can be used medically for internal or external sutures, gauze's, Pharmaceutical coatings for drugs, cotton fibres for clothing and plastic wrappings. More recently it was also discovered that it can be used for internal bone fragmentation as a biomaterial. I'm not sure how accurate the fragmentation discovery's is, as it was recently published as a substitute use. Hope that helps.
