PG - 3112-21 LID - 10.1016/j.actbio.2009.04.031 [doi] AB - Calcium phosphate (CaP) nanoparticles with a calcium to phosphorus (Ca:P) molar ratio of 1.5:1 were synthesized using reverse microemulsion. Ca(NO(3))(2).4H(2)O and H(3)PO(4) were used as the aqueous phase, cyclohexane as the organic phase and poly(oxyethylene)(12) nonylphenol ether (NP-12) as the surfactant. Depending on the calcination temperature between 600 and 800 degrees C, CaP nanoparticle showed different phases of calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) and beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP), particle size between 48 and 69 nm, and a BET specific average surface area between 73 and 57 m(2)g(-1). Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was used as a model protein to study loading and release behavior. The adsorptive property of BSA was investigated by the change in BET surface area of these nanoparticles and the pH of the suspension. At pH 7.5, the maximum amount of BSA was adsorbed onto CaP nanoparticle. The release kinetics of BSA showed a gradual time-dependent increase in pH 4.0 and 6.0 buffer solutions. However, the amount of protein released was significantly smaller at pH 7.2. The BSA release rate also varied depending on the presence of different phases of CaPs in the system, beta-TCP or CDHA. These results suggest that the BSA protein release rate can be controlled by changing the particle size, surface area and phase composition of the CaP nanocarriers.
