Fluoride Ion Uptake by Synthetic Apatites

Adsorption Science & Technology, 2009
Fluoride uptake by synthetic apatites from aqueous solutions was studied as a function of fluoride ion concentration. The phosphate minerals synthesized and considered included different varieties of phosphate minerals of the apatite group such as ...

Apatite Biominerals [PDF]

, 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

Harnessing energy metabolism for enhanced bone defect repair: Mechanisms and therapeutic strategies

VIEW, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenge of bone defect repair by focusing on the underexplored role of cellular energy metabolism. It synthesizes regulatory mechanisms in bone‐forming cells and sums up innovative strategies—leveraging cell derivatives, active factors, and biomimetic scaffolds—to modulate metabolism for enhanced regeneration.

Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Terrestrial exposure of a fresh Martian meteorite causes rapid changes in hydrogen isotopes and water concentrations [PDF]

, 2018
Determining the hydrogen isotopic compositions and H2O contents of meteorites and their components is important for addressing key cosmochemical questions about the abundance and source(s) of water in planetary bodies.

Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Navigating the Flames: Comparative Analysis of Cremation Practices in the Roman and Early Medieval Periods at Gbely‐Kojatín (SK) and Přítluky (CZ)

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cremation became the dominant funerary practice in the Middle Danube Region during the Roman Period (RP) (1st–4th century) and reappeared in the Early Medieval Ages (EMA) (6th/7th–8th century). This study aims to reconstruct differences in cremation conditions from the Gbely‐Kojatín site (Slovakia, RP and EMA) and the Přítluky site (Czech ...

The Fiery Eyes of a Maenad: Origin Determination of Faceted Garnet Eye Inlays in a Roman Bronze Bust From Southern Tyrol

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1837, the Tyrolean State Museum Ferdinandeum in Innsbruck, Austria, purchased a Roman bronze statue of a maenad from the 2nd century ce with red garnets as facetted eye inlays found near Brixen, Southern Tyrol. These garnets were investigated using optical microscopy, a portable hand‐held and a stationary micro‐X‐ray fluorescence device, as

Synthesis of trace element bearing single crystals of Chlor-Apatite (Ca5(PO4)3Cl) using the flux growth method

, 2014
We present a new strategy on how to synthesize trace-element bearing (REE, Sr) chlorapatites Ca5(PO4)3Cl using the flux growth method. Synthetic apatites were up to several mm long, light blue in colour.

In situ evaluation of the bleaching efficacy of experimental hydrogen peroxide hydrogel with MnO‐doped Biosilicate activated by violet LED light

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (HP) at 35% is effective for dental bleaching but may reduce enamel mineral content and induce structural changes. This study developed a bleaching‐hydrogel containing 6%HP and manganese‐oxide–doped Biosilicate (MnO_BioS), activated by violet LED, under in situ conditions.
