In the present study, 1-dimensional (1D) brushite nanomaterials were fabricated through sucrose ester based reverse microemulsion for the first time. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that the nanomaterials possessed brushite crystal phase with trace amount of hydroxyapatite. The size and morpholo...
