Biocompatibility of metal-ion-substituted hydroxyapatite as orthopaedic/dental implant

Metal ions substitution in hydroxyapatite crystal structure is expected to improve biocompatibility and osseointegration to prosthetic implants. Mn(II) and Fe(III) ions substituted hydroxyapatite were synthesized by wet chemical method and ion exchange mechanism with atomic substitution concentrat...
