Abstract
The results of XRD showed the formation of hydroxyapatite crystals and also SEM images indicated that n-HAp powder was nanocrystalline. The composite was thermally less stable than native cellulose. Also native cellulose had higher decomposition rate and mass loss. Results of biological test showed that the samples were biocompatible with no toxicity. Also, SEM observations demonstrated that human osteoblast cells can attach to the surface of the nanocomposite samples and this composite can be used as bone tissue engineering.
