Abstract

Abstract We report the apatite forming ability, biocompatibility, drug adsorption/desorption behavior, antibacterial activity and photoluminescence property of flower-like hydroxyapatite (HA) nanostructure which was obtained from eggshell biowaste via a simple and rapid microwave conversion process. The obtained results from the above studies indicate that the prepared flower-like hydroxyapatite nanostructure can be a potential material for the development of drug delivery carriers, bone substitutes and bioprobes.
