Abstract Hydroxyapatite (HAp), a well-known biomaterial, has witnessed a remarkable
evolution over the years, transforming from a simple biocompatible substance to an …

Amorphous calcium phosphates (ACPs) represent a metastable amorphous state of other
calcium orthophosphates (abbreviated as CaPO4) possessing variable compositional but …

Phosphate, a key plant nutrient, is perceived through inositol polyphosphates (InsPs) by
SPX domain-containing proteins. SPX1 an inhibit the PHR2 transcription factor to maintain …

Biomineralization of skeletal components (eg, bone and teeth) is generally accepted to
occur under strict cellular regulation, leading to mineral–organic composites with …

The healing of bone and cartilage injuries is complex and difficult. Currently, commercially
available autogenous and allogeneic bone grafts often fail to meet all clinical requirements …

Inorganic phosphate is a vital constituent of cells and cell membranes, body fluids, and hard
tissues. It is a major intracellular divalent anion, participates in many genetic, energy and …

In the present work, magnesium whitlockite (Mg-WH) powders were synthesized via a low-
temperature dissolution-precipitation process using gypsum as a starting material. The …

The Liesegang phenomenon is a spontaneous pattern formation, which is a periodic
distribution of the precipitate discovered in diffusion-limited systems. Over the past century, it …

This paper reports on a comprehensive study of the UV-shielding properties (namely, the
sun protection factor and the factor of protection against UV-A radiation) and cytotoxicity …

Diffusion-controlled crystallization in a hydrogel has been investigated to synthesize
organic/inorganic hybrid composites and obtain a fundamental understanding of the …
