Biomedical apparatus

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are polymers, which are produced by microorganisms in the form of granules under unbalanced growth conditions. They are biocompatible, biodegradable and sustainable, which makes it suitable for synthesising biomedical apparatus. Devices such as sutures, orthopaedic devices, cardiovascular implants, implant patches can be prepared using different combinations of this polymer. The polymer and its composites being biodegradable and sustainable can take over the conventional plastics in near future.

The proliferation of low-power and ultralow-power electronics has enabled a rapid growth of autonomous devices that ranges from consumer electronics and nomad devices to autonomous sensors and sensor networks used in industrial and military environments. Hence, a wide range of application domains has been impacted by such technologies (aeronautic, civil engineering,biomedical engineering, home automation, etc.).
