Effects of Surface Structure and Chemical Composition of Binary Ti Alloys on Cell Differentiation

Metals, 2016
Binary Ti alloys containing Fe, Mo, V and Zr were micro-arc oxidized and hydrothermally treated to obtain micro- and nano-porous layers. This study aimed to investigate cell differentiation on micro and micro/nanoporous oxide layers of Ti alloys.

Transfer of a large gene regulatory apparatus to a new developmental address in echinoid evolution [PDF]

, 2008
Of the five echinoderm classes, only the modern sea urchins (euechinoids) generate a precociously specified embryonic micromere lineage that ingresses before gastrulation and then secretes the biomineral embryonic skeleton.

The genome of Nautilus pompilius illuminates eye evolution and biomineralization

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2021
Nautilus is the sole surviving externally shelled cephalopod from the Palaeozoic. It is unique within cephalopod genealogy and critical to understanding the evolutionary novelties of cephalopods. Here, we present a complete Nautilus pompilius genome as a

Biomineralization technology for solidification/stabilization of heavy metals in ecosystem: status and perspective

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Biomineralization technology offers an eco-friendly and efficient method for stabilizing heavy metals (HMs) in ecosystem. This technology comprises two primary methods: microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) and enzyme-induced carbonate ...

Marine bivalve geochemistry and shell ultrastructure from modern low pH environments [PDF]

, 2011
. Bivalve shells can provide excellent archives of past environmental change but have not been used to interpret ocean acidification events. We investigated carbon, oxygen and trace element records from different shell layers in the mussels Mytilus ...
