Abstract

The choice of materials for use in biomedical applications is a very important issue. In addition to technological capabilities, attention should be paid to the biocompatibility of the material with the surrounding tissues. The paper presents a list of materials that can be used in BioMEMS devices. On the basis of Stensaas research, the materials were divided into non-reactive, reactive and toxic ones. The impact of given metals on living organisms and the possible negative effects they may cause is discussed. The methods of material selection and decision-making criteria were presented.
