AbstractHydroxyapatite (HA) has been widely used in medical fields such as orthopedics and dentistry for many years. HA is bioactive and biocompatible. However, the major disadvantages of the material are poor mechanical strengths, low degradation rate, minimal osteoinductivity, and inefficient drug delivery. Substitution with other ions can change the physicochemical and biological properties of HA. Iron is an essential component in human body. It forms complex hemoglobin that carries oxygen from the lungs to the other parts of the body. Iron is also important in bone metabolism. Owing to the biological importance of iron in human, the substitution of HA by iron would influence the physiochemical and biological properties of HA.
