New Proposal for Co3 Position in B-type Carbonated Apatite
نویسندگان
چکیده
The crystal structure of two B-type carbonated apatite samples was re-analyzed, using the data of Wilson et al (2006). By applying the least squares method for the determination of carbon and oxygen atoms, a slightly different result was obtained, suggesting that the carbonate ion is not rigorously planar. Keywords Carbonated apatite, Carbonate, Xray diffraction.

The influence of unstable signals for electron spin resonance dosimetry with synthetic A-type carbonated apatite.
Synthetic A-type carbonated apatite prepared in controlled conditions was irradiated at room temperature with 60Co gamma rays. The ESR spectrum was associated to axial CO2- and orthorhombic CO3- species. Radicals used as dose markers in biological apatites are long-lived paramagnetic species. The stability of the post-irradiation signal of A-type apatite was investigated for almost 2 years. Mea...
متن کاملAccommodation of the carbonate ion in apatite: An FTIR and X-ray structure study of crystals synthesized at 2–4 GPa
Carbonated hydroxylapatite (C-OHAp) and carbonate apatite (CAp; x 0.5) in the composition series Ca10(PO4)6–y[(CO3)x+(3/2)y(OH)2–2x], x = 0.0–0.7, y = 0.0–0.6, have been synthesized at 2–4 GPa, and studied by FTIR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Three structural locations for the carbonate ion have been identifi ed: (1) apatite channel, oriented with two oxygen atoms close to...
متن کاملMulti-frequency electron paramagnetic resonance study of irradiated human finger phalanxes.
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) is often used in dosimetry using biological samples such as teeth and bones. It is generally assumed that the radicals, formed after irradiation, are similar in both tissues as the mineral part of bone and tooth is carbonated hydroxyapatite. However, there is a lack of experimental evidence to support this assumption. The aim of the present study was to con...
متن کاملProbable phase composition of the mineral in bone.
Formulas proposed for the mineral of bone were reviewed. Literature data were collected where Ca, P, Na, Mg and CO3 are determined in the same samples. These data were analyzed for their conformity to the above mentioned formulas. According to this analysis Mg is contained in a phase having the Ca/P of magnesium whitlockite within the limites of error. Na is contained in a carbonated calcium ph...
متن کاملFormation and in Vivo Evaluation of Carbonate Apatite and Carbonate Apatite/CaCO_{3} Composite Films Using the Thermal Substrate Method in Aqueous Solution
We have studied the formation and carried out an in vivo evaluation of carbonate apatite (CO3-Ap) and CO3-Ap/CaCO3 composite coatings on titanium substrates using the thermal substrate method. The coatings were formed on commercial pure titanium rods (diameter = 2mm, length = 5mm) and plates (thickness = 0.3mm) by the thermal substrate method in an aqueous solution that contained Ca(H2PO4)2, Ca...
