Effect of Apatite Nuclei on Apatite-Forming Ability of Cellulose Nanofiber

Article Preview

Abstract:

Cellulose nanofiber-apatite nuclei composites were fabricated by mixing apatite nuclei with cellulose nanofiber slurry and air-drying. Then apatite-forming ability could be imparted to cellulose nanofiber-apatite nuclei composites. In order to investigate significance of mixed apatite nuclei, cellulose nanofiber-hydroxyapatite composites were fabricated by mixing commercially obtained stoichiometric hydroxyapatite particles with cellulose nanofiber slurry, and the bioactivity was evaluated by using simulated body fluid.
