Acknowledgements; ReferencesThe process by which organisms in Nature create minerals is known as biomineralization - a process that involves complex interactions between inorganic ions, crystals and organic molecules; resulting in a controlled nucleation and growth of minerals from aqueous solutions. During the last few decades, biomineralization has been intensively studied, due to its involvement in a wide range of biological events; starting with the formation of bones, teeth, cartilage, shells, coral (so-called physiological mineralization) and encompassing pathological mineralization, i.e. the formation of kidney stMaterials science foundations ;v. 26.Surface chemistryHydroxyapatiteElectronic books.Surface chemistry.Hydroxyapatite.541.33Pramatarova L.861535Pecheva EmiliaMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465320103321Modified inorganic surfaces as a model for hydroxyapatite growth1922628UNINA
