Physicochemical analysis and application of sardinella fimbriata-derived hydroxyapatite in toothpaste formulations.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Toothpaste contains hydroxyapatite is a natural substance derived from fish bones. This study examines the physicochemical process of natural hydroxyapatite, conducts organoleptic testing, and assesses the homogeneity of Fringescale sardinella (Sardinella fimbriata) fish bone in toothpaste formulations.

Method

The study employed laboratory experimental research in September 2021. The calcination technique was employed to acquire a calcium precursor to produce natural hydroxyapatite powder derived from the bones of Sardinella fimbriata fish. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was investigated to analyze the element calcium (Ca)-the morphological evaluation involved using an X-ray diffractometer (XRD) to evaluate the crystallinity. Toothpaste was formulated using natural hydr
