Characterization of antiseptic apatite powders prepared at biomimetics temperature and pH

Antiseptic apatite-based calcium phosphates were prepared as the single-phase powders. Phosphocalcic oxygenated apatites were synthesized from calcium salts and orthophosphate dissolved in oxygenated water solution at 30%, under the biomimetic conditions of 37 °C and pH 7.4. The characterization and chemical analysis of the synthesized biomimetic apatite powders were performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and chemical analysis. The obtained materials are a calcium deficient apatites with different morphologies.
