Abstract | Calcium apatite powder was formed and a definite quantity was mixed separately with 1% solutions of gelatin, chitosan and collagen to form a paste. The gelatin apatite mixture flowed easily while the collagen apatite one was too viscous. The paste formed by the different mixtures was packed individually in thin plastic tubes and calcined at 800/spl deg/C. The ashing away of the organic matter and the phase transformation of the phosphate resulted in rod shaped calcium phosphate rods. The chitosan apatite paste gave the most uniform rods of good porosity. The calcined samples were analysed for their chemical and physical properties. Characterisation was done by FT IR and X-ray diffraction. The material was stable in water and in a phosphate buffer and did not disintegrate. The water uptake and chitosan solution uptake were determined. The porous rods were brittle with comparatively poor bending strength. The apatite rods loaded with an antibiotic like gentamicin sulphate is intended to be used for drug delivery at the sites of orthopaedic implants for the prevention of osteomyelitis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
