SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF HYDROXYAPATITE NANOPARTICLES FOR BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS

Аннотация

In this study, the synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HA) is reported. Currently, in addition to the traditional (oral and injection) methods of drug delivery to the body, delivery using some chemical means (micelles, liposomes, etc.) is more preferred by researchers. When using these tools, the advantages of such substances are that they can reduce the cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents, reduce the amount of administered drugs, target delivery, and other features. In our studies, the nanopolymers used for drug delivery encountered some barriers in crossing the cornea of the skin. When HA nanoparticles were used they provided mechanical strength due to their crystalline structure. A hydrothermal synthesis method was used to synthesize HA nanoparticles.
