Nanoparticles of hydroxyapatite were successfully synthesized by microbial method at ambient temperature and pressure, using calcium chloride and specific substrate as reactants. The compositional and morphological properties of products of the syntheses were studied by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The characterization data obtained showed that the phase composition, functional groups, and surface morphology of samples obtained by microbial method were mainly similar to that by chemical precipitation method. The hydroxyapatite powder was shown to be nanometer-grade in size and sphere-like in shape.
