What Are the Challenges Associated With Biomaterials?
Despite their benefits, the use of biomaterials poses several challenges:
Biocompatibility: Ensuring that biomaterials are compatible with the human body and do not cause adverse reactions is a significant challenge. Infection Risk: Biomaterials can sometimes act as a medium for bacterial growth, leading to infections. Cost: The development and production of advanced biomaterials can be expensive, making them less accessible to low-income populations. Regulation: Stringent regulatory requirements can delay the introduction of new biomaterials into the market.
