Hydroxyapatite (HAp) from fish by-product exhibits good biocompatibility and bioactivity on implants. The aim of the study is to investigate the elemental composition, crystalline phases, and functional groups of HAp synthesised from fringescale sardinella fish bones by heat decomposition method a...
