According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Biomaterials Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028”, the global biomaterials market size reached US$ 102.8 Billion in 2022. Biomaterials are substances engineered to interact with biological systems for specific medical applications or purposes. These materials, which can be either natural or synthetic, play a critical role in medical implants, tissue engineering, and drug delivery systems. One of the primary characteristics of biomaterials is biocompatibility, meaning they are designed to perform their intended function without eliciting any undesirable local or systemic effects in the host. Another crucial characteristic is the mechanical integrity of the biomaterial, as it often needs to withstand physical stresses, especially in applications like joint replacements or cardiovascular stents. Features of biomaterials often include controllable degradation rates, which is particularly important for temporary implants that dissolve over time. In tissue engineering, biomaterials often serve as scaffolds that guide tissue growth and eventually degrade, leaving only the newly regenerated tissue. Additionally, the surface properties of biomaterials are engineered to control interactions with biological tissues; for example, some materials are designed to encourage cell adhesion while others are meant to resist bacterial colonization. Other features include high tensile strength for durability, porosity for nutrient flow and cell migration, and thermal stability to withstand sterilization processes. Advancements in material science have expanded the range of biomaterials available, incorporating smart materials that can respond to external stimuli like temperature and ph. Furthermore, the integration of nanotechnology has led to the development of biomaterials with highly specialized functionalities, like targeted drug delivery or real-time monitoring of physiological parameters.
