Development of Marine-Based Biomaterial

Oceans have vast potential for the development of high-value bioactive substances and biomaterials. Throughout recent decades, a plethora of biological matter has been derived from the remarkable realm of marine organisms. Nevertheless, the intricate tapestry of marine-derived materials continues to be explored with fervor, owing to the sheer multitude of marine organisms. Marine biomaterials have excellent biological activity, unique chemical structure, good biocompatibility, low toxicity, and suitable degradability properties. These marine biomaterials can be applied to tissue material engineering and material development in regenerative medicine. The marine biomaterials that seize human attention primarily encompass a collection of biomacromolecules and their derivatives, notably chitin, alginate, collagen, as well as glycosaminoglycans. While promoting the development, commercialization and application of marine biomedical materials, their safety has also received attention. At CD BioSciences, we not only provide marine biomaterial development services but also biomaterial safety assessments.
