Study compares calcium phosphate mineralization on polydopamine and zein coated titanium dioxide nanoparticles using quartz crystal microbalance measurements.
Polydopamine-coated nanoparticles accumulated about 37% more mineral mass than zein-coated ones, indicating faster nucleation and sustained crystal growth. The findings show how the surface chemistry ...
The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...
Materials that encourage mineralization, mimicking the process in the human body, are becoming increasingly important in medicine and technology. This process, which occurs at the interface between ...
Among the various bioorganic coatings (eco-friendly surface coverings made from renewable biological sources) currently being investigated, zein and polydopamine (PDA) are among the more popular ...
