Sažetak

This paper reports a superficial morphological modification of the hydroxyapatite grains obtained by in situ deposition of Ag nanoparticles on natural origin calcium phosphate powder. Ceramic material was prepared in three stage bone treatment, including hydrolysis with a lactic acid, pre-calcination, and proper calcination. Subsequently, the Ag nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction of Ag+ by sodium borohydride in a solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone and in presence of hydroxyapatite. Such-prepared materials were investigated with X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, atomic absorption spectrometry and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy. Furthermore, Ca/P molar ratio was calculated and microbiological tests were performed to investigate materials antimicrobial activity. The appearance of Ag nanoparticles located on phosphate surface was confirmed by SEM analysis, and no chemical bonding with hydroxyapatite was recorded by IR and XRD techniques. Additionally, the biological assessment revealed bactericidal effect on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, while slightly affected on Enterococcus faecalis viability.
