On-site smart biomimetic mineralization of starch-templated CaP prenucleation clusters triggered by α-amylase

Pregelatinized hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate-reinforced calcium sulfate bone cement for bleeding bone treatment

“…This finding implies that starch could guide the crystal growth of CSC as a template, and similar phenomena were also observed in the mixture of starch and calcium phosphate. 34,35 The degradation behavior of CSCPG20 was also investigated, showing a gradual weight loss of 8.27% ± 0.94% after 5 days and 31.25% ± 1.59% after 30 days in SBF (Fig. 4c).…”

Guidelines derived from biomineralized tissues for design and construction of high-performance biomimetic materials: from weak to strong

“…Natural templates such as teeth and bone are often used to mediate the mineralization process to form BMT-like structures, for example, teeth, 554,594–596 demineralized bone, 597 wood, 555 cartilage, 598 and fish scales. 599 Liu et al 554 reported the preparation of continuously structured inorganic materials by cross-linking ionic oligomers.…”

Preparation of calcium phosphate ion clusters through atomization method for biomimetic mineralization of enamel

“…Thus, biomimetic mineralization of enamel is an ideal strategy to achieve perfect restoration. One of the mainstream approaches is to use calcium phosphate ion clusters (CPICs) to treat the enamel defect surface, followed by remineralization in artificial saliva or a saliva‐like environment 8–13 . However, the instability of CPICs due to their high surface area and energy, 14 and their tendency to aggregate, 15,16 make it challenging to prepare stable CPICs within 10 nm 17 …”

“…One of the mainstream approaches is to use calcium phosphate ion clusters (CPICs) to treat the enamel defect surface, followed by remineralization in artificial saliva or a saliva-like environment. [8][9][10][11][12][13] However, the instability of CPICs due to their high surface area and energy, 14 and their tendency to aggregate, 15,16 make it challenging to prepare stable CPICs within 10 nm. 17 Researchers have attempted to stabilize CPICs by adding stabilizers, including inorganic and organic additives, synthetic polymers, and biological molecules.…”
