Bone resembling apatite by amorphous-to-crystalline transition driven self-organisation

Calcium apatite is the main inorganic constituent of mammalian hard tissues such as bones and teeth. Its formation in vivo is likely to be preceded by a transient amorphous phase. If so, the amorphous-to-crystalline transition would have some crucial role in the biomineralisation process. To investi...
