Abstract. The aim of this work was to characterize and compare three different structures of Ferrous citrate (Fe(II)C), amorphous, semi-crystalline and crystalline incorporated into a SiO2 inorganic matrix by sol-gel technique. On this system thus obtained, colorimetric assay was carried out to confirm the only presence of Fe2+; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed not only the Fe(II)C presence in the silica matrix but also showed us the interactions among different components in the hybrid materials. The bioactivity of the synthesized hybrid materials was evaluated by the formation of a layer of hydroxyapatite on the surface of samples soaked in SBF using FTIR spectroscopy. Finally, the antibacterial properties of the hybrid materials were investigated.
