Abstract

A neoteric modus operandi to trigger the growth of Hydroxyapatite (HAp) composite from Bivalve (Meretrix) is systemized for bone healing. The methodology is effectuated by compaction and pressure less sintering at an intense temperature. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) supplemented with carbonate is the resultant product to the exclusion of everything else in the aforesaid reaction. The end product is set apart by Energy Dispersive Spectrum and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
