Improved Adsorption of Basic Protein on Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles Synthesized Using a Lamellar Template of Sodium Dodecylphosphate
We synthesized hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles using a lamellar phase, which was formed using a phosphorous surfactant, sodium dodecylphosphate (SDP). The HAp nanoparticles synthesized using SDP, after calcination, adsorbed more egg white lysozyme compared to that synthesized without SDP.
