Chitosan is a nontoxic biopolymer biocompatible and naturally degradable with antibacterial antiviral and antifungal properties obtained from chitin the main constituent of hard body parts of invertebrates such as the shells of shrimp lobsters crabs
The nanotube surfaces can be modified to improve biocompatibility and their ability to target certain types of cells.
Their research could lead to new strategies for self-healing materials or biocompatible materials that mimic human tissues.
Since silicones are biocompatible they can also be used for tissue engineering. Soft tissues in the body like cartilage need to maintain strength under repeated compression
You can think of it as being biocompatible with our planet. But if this material gets put in your garden or on the side of the road,
It s getting broken into biocompatible stuff. It ll help improve the soil in your area.
