Biomaterials are materials that have been formed from or created by biological organisms such as plants, animals, bacteria, fungus, and other forms of life are referred to as biologically derived materials. Biomaterials are normally designed to interface with biological systems, for the treatment, augmentation, or replace-ment of biological functions.
