Organoamine-assisted biomimetic synthesis of faceted hexagonal hydroxyapatite nanotubes with prominent stimulation activity for osteoblast proliferation

Abstract

Uniform single-crystalline hydroxyapatite nanotubes with hexagonal facets are synthesized via a distinctive organoamines-assisted biomimetic route. These novel HA nanotubes exhibit exceptional performance in stimulating osteoblast proliferation, which gives them intriguing potential for bone repair.
