The process of collagen mineralization represents a current challenge in tissue engineering
and is extensively studied, since collagen and calcium phosphate are the main constituents …

Biomineralization is a process of creating crystalline structures under biological control. The
process takes place in hard tissues, such as bones, cartilages, and teeth. Biominerals are a …

Bone is a composite material in which collagen fibrils form a scaffold for a highly organized
arrangement of uniaxially oriented apatite crystals,. In the periodic 67 nm cross-striated …

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to characterize the organic and
mineral phases present during the induction of mineral formation by collagenase-released …

We demonstrate that intrafibrillar, homogenous collagen biomineralization can be achieved
by controlling self-assembly under mildly alkaline conditions. Using dense collagen (DC) …

Correlated studies were performed with light and electron microscopy, and backscattered
electron image in conjunction with X-ray microanalysis, of lanthanum-incubated epiphyseal …

Collagen self‐assembly and simultaneous mineralization by incubating a mixture containing
collagen, calcium, and phosphate ions under physiological conditions, is an effective …

We studied the effect of surface-functional-group position on precipitate morphology in the
earliest stage of calcium phosphate biomineralization and determined the detailed …

Biomineralization is a crucial process whereby organisms produce mineralized tissues such
as teeth for mastication, bones for support, and shells for protection. Mineralized tissues are …
