Calcium phosphates for biomedical applications
Boletín de la Sociedad Española de Cerámica y Vidrio, 2017 The history of calcium phosphates in the medicine field starts in 1769 when the first evidence of its existence in the bone tissue is discovered. Since then, the interest for calcium phosphates has increased among the scientific community.
