normal and pathological mineralization in vertebrates but also with the interesting problems involved in the formation of in tracellular deposits of calcium oxalate in plants. Here cal cium carbonate and silica may also be involved in the mineral ization processes. Calcium carbonate is an important component in the formation of mollusc and avian shells. The observation that both calcite and aragonite may be formed in biogenic cal cium carbonate raises important questions as to what factors control the formation of the final mineral phase. There is little doubt that thermodynamically less stable phases may be kinetically stabilized for long periods of time by other mole cules present in vivo. In normal mineralization, calcium salts may initially be deposited both within the cells and extracel lularly. In the latter case, the role of matrix vesicles and the ways in which the matrix components might control mineral ization were especially emphasized. There is clearly a need for more structural and functional information involving cells, matrix components, and their associated crystals. The develop ment of further techniques involving mutants, chromofluors, and fixatives for preservation of tissue and the ions present in vivo was recommended. In dealing with abnormal and pathological mineralization, the Workshop concentrated on urolithiasis, gout and pseudo-gout, and the formation of dental caries. Discussions based on the influence of media of low pH on mineral surfaces highlighted some of the factors of importance in controlling crystal dis solution.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. "Biological Mineralization and Demineralization: Report of the Dahlem Workshop on Biological Mineralization and Demineralization Berlin 1981, October 18-23" stands as a significant contribution to the field, edited by G. H. Nancollas. Part of the esteemed series Life Sciences Research Report number 23, this hardcover First Edition is in Very Good condition, offering a valuable addition to any scientific library.The covers of the book are well-maintained, showing minimal wear, while the binding remains square and tight, ensuring the structural integrity of the volume. Although minor abrasions are present on the front paste-down and front flyleaf, they do not detract from the overall quality of the book.Notably, light foxing is observed on the top edge of the book, a common result of shelf storage. However, the interior pages remain clean and unmarked, preserving the readability and scholarly value of the content.This report encapsulates the discussions and findings of the Dahlem Workshop on Biological Mineralization and Demineralization, providing valuable insights into this specialized field of study.Additionally, the book explores the crucial role of aquatic systems in the complex processes of energy and matter exchange between the geosphere and the atmosphere. It highlights the impacts of reactions in cloud water droplets and pollution-induced weathering reactions on environmental changes, emphasizing the importance of understanding processes over monitoring state variables.For shipment, the book will be meticulously packaged to safeguard it from potential damage during transit. A USPS electronic tracking number will also be provided free of charge for added convenience and peace of mind.
