Calcite crystallization on gelatin films containing polyelectrolytes

The promotion of oriented calcie crystallization by various polyelectrolytes, in particular their relative efficiency, has been investigated. Gelatin containing polyelectrolytes was found to overcome the compatibility problem between an inert matrix and the water‐soluble polyelectrolytes as sociated...

Description
Summary:The promotion of oriented calcie crystallization by various polyelectrolytes, in particular their relative efficiency, has been investigated. Gelatin containing polyelectrolytes was found to overcome the compatibility problem between an inert matrix and the water‐soluble polyelectrolytes as sociated with biomineralization (the Figure shows calctie crystals grown on such a substrate).
