The main purpose of the present study were to produce and characterize calcium phosphates, specially hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) and B-tricalcium phosphate (Ca3(PO4)2), with hierarchical pore arrangement obtained through a new synthesis process using just biocompatible precursors. IUPAC- International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry classifies the pores in terms of the cavities diameters in mesopores (2 nm <o <50 nm) and macropores (o> 50 nm). The main objectives were twofold. The first was the template development using a surfactant, cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (C16TAB), and gelatinized corn starch to obtain a hierarchical arrangement of pores form meso to macropores. The second aspect was the production of hydroxyapatite doped with Eu3+ for drug delivery systems equipped with luminescent probes. For this purpose, pure samples and calcium phosphatedoped samples with 6 mol% of Eu3+ were produced with C16TAB and / or corn starch. The following experimental characterization techniques were employed: X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Small angle Xray scattering (SAXS) and the Ultralow angles X-ray scattering (USAXS), photoluminescence and cytotoxicity test. XRD revealed that the solutions drip order and the type of organic template promotes variations in the crystallites dimensions and induces the appearance of B- Ca2(P2O7), a-Ca2(P2O7) and carbonated calcium phosphate phases with of the main B-TCP phase. XAFS technique showed that the Eu3+ incorporation occurred preferentially in the Ca(1) sites of HAP. The luminescence results also revealed that the symmetry of the Eu3+ ion is affected by solutions drip order and the presence of C16TAB solution in the reactive medium. The hierarchical arrangement of pores was evaluated by SAXS / USAXS and SEM analysis. The results indicated that only C16TAB was not able to induce proses, whereas the samples produced with combination of corn starch and C16TAB presented meso and macropores structures. In vitro cytotoxicity tests revealed excellent biocompatibility of our calcium phosphate porous systems.
