The effect of zinc doping on the cytocompatibility and antibacterial efficacy of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles for treatment of bone infection

In the face of antibiotic resistance, new antibacterial methods are urgently needed for bone infections. Local delivery of therapeutic metal ions via osteogenic nanoparticles (NPs) is a viable alternative, but high concentrations risk toxicity to mammalian cells. In this study first four ions (Mg2+,...
