Nanosized hydroxyapatite (nHA) has been proposed as drug delivery vehicles because of its biocompatibility. While the possible risks of nHA inducing inflammation have been highlighted, the specific influence of varying nHA particle morphology is still unclear. In order to establish this understandin...
