Antimicrobial Property of Hydroxyapatite Derivative Nanoparticles
Abstract:
Recently, the antimicrobial activity of ceramic nanoparticles has been highlighted and much attention is now directed toward using them as a new substitute over conventional organic agents, which tend to contain noxious materials harmful to humans. The use of these ceramics has the advantage of containing mineral elements that are essential to the human body as well as a strong antibacterial activity, even when present in small concentrations. In this work, the antimicrobial ceramics based on hydroxyapatite (HA) were successfully prepared in a wet chemical process with additions of several types of transition metal salts. Eventually, we presented methods for the synthesis of modified HA and their antimicrobial efficiency against S. aureus. The incorporation of transition ions into HA backbone structure can be used as effective bioactive delivery systems for the slow release of antibiotics.
