“…Transmission electron microscopy and small angle x-ray scattering on bone makes it evident that intraand inter-fibrilar associations of OH-Ap-nanocrystallites form a series of parallel and spiral wound mineralized plates [5,10,18,37]. These plates are usually described as coplanar assemblies of NOH-Ap submerged into the saturated aqueous solution containing Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , OH − , [PO 4 ] 3− , [CO 3 ] 2− , and other ions [7,10,18,37].…”
