Talk:Biomimetic material

Untitled
A biomimetic materials probably more likely is made either to mimic a biological material OR is produced by mimicking a biological procedure, rather than specifically have to interact with the extracellular matrix although it probably does anyway at least when it is contact with any ECM.

I also thought that a biomimetic material could be defined in much broader terms, e.g. as an engineered material that copies structural features found in nature (often at a microscopic level). Ahw001 (talk) 13:31, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

This article is only about a specific class of biomimetic materials. Any material inspired by nature is biomimetic. Thus, we can also try to imitate mechanical properties or other properties. For instance: the structure of bone makes it a very strong yet light-weight material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.225.22.254 (talk) 12:04, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I have written a general introduction to biomimetic materials, I think the rest of the content can be reduced to just a paragraph... or should it be moved to another page, or kept. Any comments? Asuma (talk) 18:15, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
