Structural, Spectroscopic, and Biological Characterization of Novel Rubidium(I) and Europium(III) Co-Doped Nano-Hydroxyapatite Materials and Their Potential Use in Regenerative Medicine
Abstract:This research investigates hydrothermally synthesized hydroxyapatite nanoparticles doped with rubidium(I) and europium(III) ions. Investigation focused on establishing the influence of co-doped Eu3+ and Rb+ ions on hydroxyapatite lattice. Therefore, structural, and morphological properties were characterized via using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. Furthermore, this investigati… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
