Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of Silver-Doped Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles

Figure 1

Rietveld refinement plot of the Ag:HAp samples synthesized with 𝑥_Ag=0.2, 𝑥_Ag=0.3, and 𝑥_Ag=0.4. The observed data are represented in blue and the calculated data by a red line. Vertical lines represent the positions of diffraction lines of hydroxyapatite (ICDD-PDF number 9-432). The line below the gray plot is the difference profile.
