Abstract
Calcium phosphate bone replacement biomaterials are widely used in different applications. Structure, composition, and organization are, before implantation, analyzed with different methods. Among them, X-ray diffraction is a recognized test. As bioresorption produces more amorphous material, the process is observed and quantified via scanning electron microscopy. Comparatively high-resolution 31P solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is able to analyze raw ceramics composition and to estimate osteoformation.
