Biomineralisation by earthworms - an investigation into the stability and distribution of amorphous calcium carbonate
(2015)BACKGROUND: Many biominerals form from amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC), but this phase is highly unstable when synthesised in its pure form inorganically. Several species of earthworm secrete calcium carbonate granules ... -
The effect of aspartic acid and glycine on amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) structure, stability and crystallization
(Elsevier, 2014)The effect of organic molecules on CaCO3 crystallization, in particular on the formation of the initial amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) phase, is poorly understood despite this knowledge being crucial for designing ...
