Healing of segmental bone defects remain a difficult problem in orthopedic and trauma
surgery. One reason for this difficulty is the limited availability of bone material to fill the …

In recent years remarkable efforts have been made to produce artificial bone through tissue
engineering techniques. Silk fibroin (SF) and hydroxyapatite (HA) have been used in bone …

This paper focuses on the study of the effect of the change of the crystal size on the shape
and width of the X-ray diffraction patterns for defatted and deproteinized bones as well as …

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a member of the calcium apatite family that has been widely
employed as an implant material in bone tissue regeneration (osteogenesis) and as a drug …

Organic debris in the form of fish bone wastes account to several thousand tons annually. In
recent years, researchers have turned attention towards the bioconversion of organic debris …

In this work, a study of hydroxyapatite (HAp) powders obtained using both, porcine bones
and chemical precursors was carried put. In the case of HAp obtained by means of porcine …

ABSTRACT The nano-hydroxyapatite (NHAp), NHAp/PEG and NHAp/PVP have been
derived from Clam shell by precipitation method. The presence of characteristic FTIR peaks …

The physicochemical properties and biological behavior of sintered-bovine-derived
hydroxyapatite (BHAp) are here reported and compared to commercial synthetic-HAp …

An ideal bone repair material should have the features similar to that of natural bones more
specifically considering the composition and microstructure. In this investigation, porous …

This paper focuses in the study of the effect of the temperature and sintering time on
structural, morphological, thermal, and vibrational properties of hydroxyapatite obtained from …
