Biocompatibility means the adaptation of biomaterial to biological conditions and the absence of harmful toxic effects. Scaffold biocompatibility means the ability to regenerate tissue with the body without producing harmful systemic and local responses in the host. Interaction between body and biomaterials will have a significant effect on biomaterial Function. There is a great deal of interaction between the body and the biomaterial. There are three basic characteristics of this definition: first, that biomaterial must work, second, that the best response from the body's tissues to biomaterial is necessary, and third, that biocompatibility must always be defined for a specific application. Biomaterial biocompatibility is its ability to create optimal performance in the host with an acceptable surface of connective tissue binding without creating adverse local systemic responses. The biocompatibility of scaffolding is defined as the ability of the structure to support appropriate cellular activities to optimize tissue regeneration without creating adverse systemic and local responses in the host.

This course provides an overview of:

- Definition of biocompatibility and biomaterials

- Study of biocompatibility from the point of view of toxicology, allergenicity, effect on genes and blood, carcinogenicity and biodegradability

- Introduction of biocompatibility standards

- The interaction of cells with biomaterials

- Physicochemical properties of biomaterials and their biocompatibility

- Compatibility blood and the factors affecting it

- The process of wound healing in the presence of natural and artificial biomaterials

This course can be useful for students of tissue engineering, polymer and medical engineering and interested in this field.
