The main issue of using hydroxyapatite (HA) in dentistry is accumulation of microorganisms
on it that causes tooth decay. The use of nanoparticles can decrease the accumulation of …

The hydroxyapatite/silver nanoparticles (HA/AgNPs) composites were synthesized using a
two-step physiochemical method. Firstly, a mixture of Ca (NO3) 2· 4H2O and K2HPO4 was …

Combination of bioactive material such as hydroxyapatite (HAp) with antibacterial agents
would have great potential to be used as bone implant materials to avert possible bacterial …

Even though hydroxyapatite (HA) is the most common biocompatible material; it has limited
antibacterial resistance. HA experiences a tailor-made structure depending on the desired …

Nano-hydroxyapatite doped with either Ag+ or Zn 2+ has been synthesized using the sol-gel
precipitation method at conditions of low dopant content (dopant/Ca 2+ molar ratio of 0.006 …

The nanocomposites (NCs) contain a hybrid matrix and reinforcing material that could
improve the physicochemical and biological properties of individual compounds. HAP, Cu 2 …

A silver‐hydroxyapatite nanocomposite has been obtained by a colloidal chemical route and
subsequent reduction process in H2/Ar atmosphere at 350∘ C. This material has been …

The bone implants used in tissue repair are susceptible to infections caused by
staphylococci, specifically Staphylococcus aureus. Hence, the development of better …

In this study, we prepared and evaluated hydroxyapatite–gelatin/curcumin nanofibrous
composites and determined their antimicrobial effects against Escherichia coli …

Since bacterial accumulation surrounding biomaterials has pathogens known to cause the
biomaterials centered infection, it may be important to develop some kind of biomaterial with …
