Abstract

We report synthesis of hollow calcium phosphate (CaP) nanospheres with high surface area by using block copolymer micelles as templates. The obtained CaP nanospheres exhibit very high biocompatibility, showing great promise for intracellular bio-applications in future. © 2012 Royal Society of Chemistry.
