Mechanism of Biomineralization Induced by Bacillus subtilis J2 and Characteristics of the Biominerals [PDF]

Minerals, 2019
Biomineralization induced by microorganisms has become a hot spot in the field of carbonate sedimentology; however, the mechanisms involved still need to be explored. In this study, the bacterium Bacillus subtilis J2 (GenBank MG575432) was used to induce the precipitation of calcium carbonate minerals at Mg/Ca molar ratios of 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 ...

Biomineral mesostructure

MRS Bulletin, 2023
AbstractBiominerals formed by animals are most frequently calcium carbonate or phosphate polycrystalline materials with complex hierarchical structures. This article will focus on the 10-nm–10-µm scale, termed “mesoscale,” at which the “mesostructure” differs greatly across biominerals, is relevant to their mechanical properties, and reveals formation ...

Production of single-domain magnetite throughout life by sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka [PDF]

, 1988
Although single-domain particles of biogenic magnetite have been found in different species of pelagic fishes, nothing is known about when it is synthesized, or about whether the time during life when it is produced is correlated with the development of

Multivariate Screening and Automated Clustering of Macrophage Immunoreactome to Nanoparticles and Photothermal Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Predicting immune responses to treatments, including nanomedicines, with high throughput test is challenging due to the immunoreactome's complexity and plasticity. A predictive screening platform integrating pathway activation and gene profiling in macrophages has been developed as a versatile tool for designing effective immunotherapies.
