The free nano-HA, nanoclay, and their scaffolds were characterized via TEM, SEM, EDX, FTIR, XRD, and TGA analyses. <i>In vitro</i> bioactivity, degradation, swelling, and cytotoxicity were investigated. For the <i>in vivo</i> studies, two groups of rats were used (<i>n</i> = five) in the study period (37 days). The scaffolds were implanted in the rat’s back. TEM analysis showed the nanorods of HA have a particle length of around 107 nm and a width around 17 nm, which is crystalline in nature, as XRD demonstrated. However, the SEM images showed the formation of honeycomb-like scaffolds. The <i>in vitro</i> bioactivity results through the changes of PBS ions and SEM/EDX analysis after immersion in PBS detected the formation of a calcium phosphate layer which is important for bone regeneration. The cell viability results proved IC50 &gt; 670 µg/mL and IC50: 116 µg/mL for HA and nanoclay, respectively<i>.</i> Furthermore, the histological analysis revealed the highest calcification after 1 month for the nano-HA-containing scaffold supporting them as promising substitute biomaterials for treating bone loss.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":19016,"journal":{"name":"MRS Communications","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141745173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
