Sodium Hydroxide → Tricalcium Phosphate

Participants

Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution of calcium chloride (18 mM) was added, dropwise and under magnetic stirring, to an aqueous solution on dibasic hydrogen phosphate (10.8 mM). The pH of both solutions was adjusted beforehand to 9.5 with NaOH. CaP NPs were obtained by filtration of the suspension through a 0.22 μm filter. CaP NPs were stored at 4° C. before use. CaP/ZOL-NPs complexes (CaPZ NPs) were prepared by mixing a CaP NPs dispersion with an aqueous solution of ZOL at different ZOL concentrations (10 mg/ml of ZOL in water or 50 mg/ml of ZOL in phosphate buffer at pH 9.5), at a volume ratio of 50:1.
