Effects of pH on the microarchitecture of carbonate apatite granules fabricated through a dissolution–precipitation reaction

Both the composition and architecture of artificial bone govern bone regeneration. Herein, carbonate apatite (CAp), which has a similar mineral composition to bone, was prepared by immersing calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in a phosphate solution with varying acidification levels (pH 6.0) to pH 8.9, to re...
