The role of prenucleation clusters in surface-induced calcium phosphate crystallization - stage 5

Parent item: The role of prenucleation clusters in surface-induced calcium phosphate crystallization ACP formation is thought to proceed through prenucleation clusters. However, the role of such nanometre-sized clusters as building blocks2 for ACP has been debated for many years. Here we demonstrate that the surface-induced formation of apatite from simulated body fluid17, 18 starts with the aggregation of prenucleation clusters leading to the nucleation of ACP before the development of oriented apatite crystals. The data consists of separate sets for the five stages in this process. Datasets consist of original (mrc) data, the aligned (ali) data, reconstruction (rec) data, each of which may also be visualized with a video presentation.

父研究项目：《预成核团簇在表面诱导磷酸钙结晶中的作用》。无定形磷酸钙（amorphous calcium phosphate，ACP）的形成过程被认为经由预成核团簇介导。然而，这类纳米级团簇作为无定形磷酸钙构筑单元²的功能，多年来一直存在学术争议。本研究证实，从模拟体液^17,18中经表面诱导生成磷灰石的过程，在形成定向磷灰石晶体之前，首先通过预成核团簇的聚集引发无定形磷酸钙的成核。本数据集包含该过程五个阶段的独立数据集组。数据集涵盖原始（mrc）数据、配准（ali）数据与重构（rec）数据，上述各类数据均可通过视频演示实现可视化展示。
