Biomineralization integrates complex biologically assisted physico-chemical processes leading to an extraordinary diversity of calcareous biomineral crystalline architectures, in intriguing contrast with the consistent presence of a submicrometric granular structure.
While the repeated observation of amorphous calcium carbonate is interpreted as a precursor to the crystalline phase, the...
