In this work, we report high biological performance of silicon substituted nano hydroxyapatite (nHA) prepared by immersion of calcium phosphate and sodium silicate as precursors in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) solution for 24, 36, 48 and 72 hrs at 37°C. Characterization and chemical analysis of the synthesized powders were performed by Fourier transform, infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray powde...

background: in the last decades, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (msn) are improved for drug delivery, imaging, and biomedical applications due to their special properties such as large surface area, high drug loading capacity, tunable pore size, and modification of surface area by functional groups. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate msns as carriers for oral colon-specific and ...

The driving force and nucleation rate of calcium phosphate (Ca-P) precipitation in simulated body fluid (SBF) were analyzed based on the classical crystallization theory. SBF supersaturation with respect to hydroxyapatite (HA), octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and dicalcium phosphate (DCPD) was carefully calculated, considering all the association/dissociation reactions of related ion groups in SBF....
