Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Orthopedic Research
  • Biomineralization

Background:

  • Mammalian bone is a rich source of hydroxyapatite.
  • Camel bone-derived hydroxyapatite (CBHA) offers a potential biomaterial for bone regeneration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To extract and characterize hydroxyapatite from camel bone (CBHA).
  • To evaluate CBHA's suitability for bone tissue engineering applications.

Main Methods:

  • Hydroxyapatite extraction via defatting and deproteinization.
  • Characterization using FTIR, Micro-Raman, XRD, SEM, Micro-CT, TGA, ICP-MS, and EDX.
  • Mechanical testing and incubation in simulated body fluid (SBF).

Main Results:

  • Successful hydroxyapatite extraction confirmed by spectroscopic and diffraction analyses.
  • CBHA exhibits an interconnected porous structure (50-600 µm pores, 73.93% porosity).
  • Material stability up to 1000 °C, with Ca, P, and trace elements present; stable pH in SBF.

Conclusions:

  • Extracted CBHA is chemically, physically, and structurally sound.
  • The porous architecture and stability make CBHA a promising candidate for bone regeneration.
