Provided is a method of manufacturing a carbonate apatite, the method comprising the step of incubating a mixture comprising a calcium ion, a phosphate ion, and a hydrocarbon ion, wherein an incubation temperature is 10° C. or lower and an incubation time of 10 minutes or less. Further, a carbonate apatite made by this method (e.g., carbonate apatite with a maximum particle size of 700 nm, average particle size of 30 nm and drug encapsulation rate of 98%, all in nanometer size) is provided. |
