Author: Jürgen Engel Full Title: A Critical Survey Of Biomineralization: Control, Mechanisms, Functions Ad Material Properties Publisher: Springer; 1st ed. 2017 edition (December 3, 2016) Year: 2017 ISBN-13: 9783319477114 (978-3-319-47711-4), 9783319477107 (978-3-319-47710-7) ISBN-10: 3319477110, 3319477102 Pages: 64 Language: English Genre: Biomedical Engineering File type: PDF (True) Quality: 10/10 Price: 53.49 € This monograph provides a comprehensive and up-to-date approach on biomineralization. The topical focus of the book lies on the question of how matrix proteins and cells catalyze and regulate mineralization in organisms. Recent advances in the understanding of biomineralization help to better understand biomaterials, in particular their mechanical properties. The target audience primarily comprises practitioners and research experts in the field, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students. ------------- Our members see more. Join us!
