Overview

Research investigates gelatin's role in enhancing porosity and particle size in limestone-derived hydroxyapatite, suggesting biomedical applications.

Key Points

  • In situ gelatin addition improved porosity and reduced particle size in hydroxyapatite synthesis.
  • The optimal conditions for hydroxyapatite synthesis were 30% gelatin concentration at pH 12, achieving significant yield.
  • Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy confirmed the presence of characteristic functional groups in the synthesized hydroxyapatite.
  • SEM-EDX analysis revealed granular crystal morphology with adequate particle sizes suitable for biomedical uses.
