title: Magnetic mesoporous carbonated hydroxyapatite microspheres with hierarchical nanostructure for drug delivery systems.
abstract: Magnetic mesoporous carbonated hydroxyapatite microspheres have been fabricated hydrothermally by using CaCO(3)/Fe(3)O(4) microspheres as sacrificial templates. The high drug-loading capacity and sustained drug release property suggest that the multifunctional microspheres have great potentials for bone-implantable drug-delivery applications.
