Provided are core-shell particles which are kept stable in a solvent such as water for a long period. Each core-shell particle includes a core which contains a hydrophobic polymer having an anionic group and a shell which contains calcium phosphate. At least one of calcium atoms contained in calcium phosphate is chemically bonded to a functional group derived from the anionic group. In a method of manufacturing core-shell particles each core-shell particle includes a core which contains a hydrophobic polymer and a shell which contains calcium phosphate, the method includes the steps of: mixing a water-soluble organic solution which contains a hydrophobic polymer having an anionic group with a solution which contains calcium ion so as to obtain a first mixed solution; mixing the first mixed solution with a solution which contains phosphate ions so as to obtain a second mixed solution; and stirring the second mixed solution.

This invention provides mesostructured oxide ceramics and a synthesizing method thereof, the synthesizing method employs a water-based solvent containing a metallic salt or metal complex as the ceramics precursor, template formed from an organic compound or the association thereof, and a precipitant, wherein mesostructured oxide ceramics are obtained from self-assembled oxide ceramics and organic substance by directly extracting oxide ceramics at a low temperature of 200&#xb0; C. or less by utilizing a homogenous precipitation reaction from said ceramics precursor under the coexistence of a nanometer-sized template in the solvent, and separating and collecting the obtained precipitation, and mesostructured oxide ceramics is prepared by employing the synthesizing method described above.
