Rapid microwave assisted synthesis and characterization of nanosized silver-doped hydroxyapatite with antibacterial properties

Synthesis of nanosized particles of silver-doped hydroxyapatite (Ag-HA) as an antibacterial agent is of potential importance in managing infections associated with surgical implants. However, the process of synthesizing this agent is time consuming and inefficient. To overcome this problem, a rapid...
