Manganese (II) and iron (III) substituted hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) nanoparticles were synthesized using wet chemical method. All samples were single-phase, non-stoichiometric and B-type carbonated hydroxyapatite. Compared with pure HA, Mn2+ substituted (MnHA) and Fe3+ doped HA (FeHA) did...
