The Evolution of Biomineralization through the Co-Option of Organic Scaffold Forming Networks

Cells, 2022
Biomineralization is the process in which organisms use minerals to generate hard structures like teeth, skeletons and shells. Biomineralization is proposed to have evolved independently in different phyla through the co-option of pre-existing ...

Deep-sea microbially influenced corrosion and biomineralization [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) and biomineralization are widely observed in marine, deep-sea, freshwater, and soil ecosystems. Recently, MIC and biomineralization associated with biofouling have significantly impacted marine resources, including ...

Photochemical Activity of Black Phosphorus for Near‐Infrared Light Controlled In Situ Biomineralization

Advanced Science, 2020
The photochemical activity of black phosphorus (BP) in near‐infrared (NIR) light controlled in situ biomineralization is investigated. Owing to the excellent NIR absorption, irradiation with NIR light not only promotes degradation of BP into PO43−, but ...
