The HA biodegradation properties of all the samples in the SBF.
| Samples | Ca2+ release in SBF after 1 week (ppm) | Ca2+ release in SBF after 2 weeks (ppm) | WL. % of samples in SBF after 1 week (mg) | WL. % of samples in SBF after 2 weeks (mg) |
| NHA 0% zircon | 36 | 78 | 1.13 | 0.28 | NHA 5% zircon | 40 | 90 | 2.40 | 2.80 | NHA 10% zircon | 62 | 115 | 3.31 | 4.02 | NHA 15% zircon | 48 | 96 | 0.25 | 1.11 |
