Crop plants transport irregularly shaped mineral particles from root to shoot: Tracking and quantifying [PDF]
Mineral particles, ubiquitous in soils, influence crop plant growth by carrying nutrients and pollutants. While the uptake of dissolved mineral nutrients is well-established, the direct incorporation of irregular mineral particles into plants remains ...

Targeted enamel remineralization with mineral-loaded starch particlesWhy Is This Important?
Background: Noninvasive caries treatments work topically, which may limit efficacy. The authors hypothesized that an alternative approach using mineral-loaded particles designed to target the subsurface of noncavitated caries lesions could be ...

Hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia associate with an elevated risk of cardiovascular events, yet the pathophysiological basis of this association is unclear. Disturbed mineral homeostasis and the associated hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia may result in the formation of circulating calciprotein particles (CPPs) that aggregate the excessive calcium ...

Composition and mixing state of Arctic aerosol and cloud residual particles from long-term single-particle observations at Zeppelin Observatory, Svalbard [PDF]
The Arctic region is sensitive to climate change and is warming faster than the global average. Aerosol particles change cloud properties by acting as cloud condensation nuclei and ice-nucleating particles, thus influencing the Arctic climate system ...
