Apatite Formation on Titanium Containing Apatite

Bioceramics Development and Applications, 2013
Some titanium containing apatite (TMA) ceramics prepared by wet synthesis was superior to Hydroxyapatite (HAp) ceramics of mechanical property and cutting performance. In this study, we investigated chemical reaction of TMA in a body environment. Each TMA or commercial Hydroxyapatite powder (HAp) was formed to circular pellets by uniaxial pressing. The

Apatite Biominerals [PDF]

Minerals, 2016
Calcium phosphate apatites offer outstanding biological adaptability that can be attributed to their specific physico-chemical and structural properties. The aim of this review is to summarize and discuss the specific characteristics of calcium phosphate apatite biominerals in vertebrate hard tissues (bone, dentine and enamel). Firstly, the structural,

Fossil biomass preserved as graphitic carbon in a late paleoproterozoic banded iron formation metamorphosed at more than 550°C [PDF]

, 2019
Metamorphism is thought to destroy microfossils, partly through devolatilization and graphitization of biogenic organic matter. However, the extent to which there is a loss of molecular, elemental and isotope signatures from biomass during high ...

Raman Microscopy at the Organic–Inorganic Interfaces in Human Calcified Aortic Valves Shows the Co‐Existence of Whitlockite Crystals and Carbonated Hydroxyapatite‐Mineralized Collagen Fibrils

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study advances our understanding of aortic valve stenosis by capturing spatially resolved chemical and structural changes at the nanoscale. The findings highlight the potential of combined Raman and electron microscopy for understanding calcification mechanisms across diverse tissue types.

Inhibition of calcium phosphate precipitation by bile salts: a test of the Ca(2+)-buffering hypothesis.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1994
The ability of bile salts to inhibit the precipitation of either calcium hydroxyapatite or its precursor, amorphous calcium phosphate, by reducing Ca2+ activity or poisoning nascent crystals was determined.

THERMAL HISTORY OF THE GULI PLUTON (NORTH OF THE SIBERIAN PLATFORM) ACCORDING TO APATITE FISSION-TRACK DATING AND COMPUTER MODELING

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
We present the first results of fission-track dating of apatite monofractions from two rock samples taken from the Southern carbonatite massif of the world’s largest alkaline ultrabasic Guli pluton (~250 Ma), located within the Maymecha-Kotuy region of ...

Characterization of mesostasis regions in lunar basalts: Understanding late-stage melt evolution and its influence on apatite formation [PDF]

, 2016
Recent studies geared toward understanding the volatile abundances of the lunar interior have focused on the volatile-bearing accessory mineral apatite.

Endothelial Cells Angiogenesis in Sulfated Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) Hydrogels Enhanced by Bioactive Glass‐Released Ions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically tunable hydrogel composed of gelatin, chondroitin sulfate and laminin promotes angiogenesis in vitro without the supplement of growth factors. Endothelial cells morphogenesis was further enhanced by medium conditioned with bioactive glass 58S‐released ions (Ca and Si), thus offering a promising strategy to vascularize 3D tissue ...

Understanding Preservation of Primary Signatures in Apatite by Comparing Matrix and Zircon‐Hosted Crystals From the Eoarchean Acasta Gneiss Complex (Canada)

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
A novel way to investigate the petrogenesis of ancient polymetamorphosed terranes is to study zircon‐hosted mineral inclusions, which are sensitive to melt evolution such as apatite.

Micro and Nanostructural Diversity of Lizard Osteoderm Capping Tissue in Relation to Mechanical Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that lizard osteoderm capping tissue is a hyper‐mineralized hydroxyapatite layer consistently covering the superficial osteoderm surface in those species studied here, yet it varies greatly in morphology, nanostructure, and mechanical performance across species.
