adsorption of bovine serum albumin (bsa) onto calcium hydroxyl apatite (ha), ca10po4(oh)2, has been studied by ultra violet (uv) spectroscopy. the adsorption isotherms of bsa onto the ha surface at 291.7 k and 303.2 k were satisfactorily presented by langmuir equation and the evaluated parameters are reported. the specific surface area of ha has been measured by the bet method. the obtained val...

Fluoridated hydroxyapatite (FHA) coatings exhibit great potential for applications on implants which require good bioactivity and high antibacterial activity. This work is a comparative study of chemical stability, adhesive strength and zeta potential of a nanothick (about 200 nm) FHA coating which is densely and uniformly deposited on a titanium substrate electrochemically. The chemical stabil...

Functional osseoconductive coatings based on hydroxylapatite (HAp) and applied preferentially by atmospheric plasma spraying to medical implant surfaces are a mainstay of modern implantology. During contact with the hot jet, HAp particles melt incongruently undergo complex dehydration decomposition reactions that alter their phase composition crystallographic symmetry, thus, physical biological...
