Abstract

Putative Structure of Acidic Nucleation Sites in Calcified Tissues by using Bio- mineralization

Author(s): Maricris Aira

Macromolecules isolated from mollusc tissues have traditionally been distinguished into two distinctive instructions, primarily based on solubility properties. The primary feature of the insoluble organic matrix is to subdivide the mineralization compartment into an prepared community of microcompart-ments and hence to delimit the to be had area for crystal boom and/or to constrain the crystal packing arrangement to a positive extent.
