perform DFT calculations within the COSMO framework to study the adsorption properties of the CaHPOx (x = 1,...,4) phosphate family, and of the related HPOx acids, on a paradigmatic anatase (001) surface. Of particular interest is CaHPO4, a precursor of hy ...
Polyphosphate plays an important role in the physiological adaptation of bacteria during growth and development, as well as in their response to nutritional and environmental stresses. Moreover, polyphosphate accumulation is of environmental relevance and ...
The formation pathway of biominerals archetypes, namely calcium carbonate (CaC) and calcium phosphates (CaPs), was investigated using a multidisciplinary approach.
The time-resolved analytical data were collected using a controlled-composition method and i ...
Although mycobacteria are known to accumulate polyphosphate (PolyP), a linear polymer of orthophosphate, when subjected to stresses, the exact roles of this molecule are not yet clearly understood. We found that deletion of the pstA gene encoding for a tra ...
The biomineralization of intracellular magnetite in magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) is an area of active investigation. Previous work has provided evidence that magnetite biomineralization begins with the formation of an amorphous phosphate-rich ferric hydrox ...
Biocompatibility is one of the biggest challenges for biomaterials development. This issue arises in the case of coatings. Calcium phosphate (CP) coatings are currently used to cover femoral stem implants, while calcium titanate (CT) has also been proposed ...
The prediction of implant behaviors in vivo by the use of easy-to-perform in vitro methods is of great interest in biomaterials research. In the field of bone implants, it is commonly accepted that a spontaneous formation of a hydroxyapatite (HA) layer on ...
The heterogeneous precipitation of calcium phosphates on calcium hydroxyapariLe (Ca-10(PO4)(4)OH)(2) or HAP) in the presence arid absence of fluoride is important in the formation of bone and teeth, protection against tooth decay, dental and skeletal fluor ...
BACKGROUND: Fracture fixation in weak bone is still a clinical challenge. Screw augmentation was shown to successfully increase their primary stability. The currently used calcium phosphate or polymeric bone cements, however, present important drawbacks su ...
Osteosarcoma cells U2OS are partially susceptible to adeno-associated virus (AAV)-2 infection, allowing efficient synthesis of Rep proteins and, in a low percentage of cells, capsid production. It is not clear if this partial susceptibility to infection is ...
