| Abstract | We report here a facile strategy to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) hydroxyapatite (HA) architectures with well-defined long continuous interconnected pores by using electrospinning and biomimetic mineralization. To this end, a polymeric nanofiber (NF) scaffold with well-defined architecture was fabricated by electrospinning, and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) was then adsorbed onto the chemically modified NFs through bio-conjugation. The 3D nanoporous HA architecture was finally fabricated by biomimetic mineralization of the NF–BMP2 hybrid in simulated body fluids and subsequent dissolution of NFs in hexafluoroisopropanol. The formation of NF–BMP2 hybrid was identified by confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis. The crystal structure of HA crystals formed on NFs was examined by X-ray diffraction. The chemical composition and interconnected porous structure of the created 3D HA architectures were measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy, respectively. This bottom-up strategy based on electrospinning and biomimetic mineralization opens up a new way to prepare diverse porous HA-based hybrid materials and shows great potential in drug delivery, gene transfer and tissue engineering. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
