Tuesday publication post! In this new publication from #McMasterUniversity in Canada, Liza-Anastasia DiCecco, JingZhang, Travis Casagrande and Kathryn Grandfield have looked at new methods to observe mineralization events at biomaterial interfaces using the #PoseidonAX system!
Liquid-transmission electron microscopy (liquid-TEM) opens up new possibilities for observing mineralization events at biomaterial interfaces, an area with vast potential yet largely unexplored. In this paper, a novel method to visualize calcium phosphate (CaP) nucleation and assembly on titanium (Ti) surfaces.
By combining nanofabrication of Ti lamellae with focused ion beam (FIB) techniques and in situ liquid-TEM, the authors captured multiphasic CaP particles nucleating, adhering, and forming assemblies at the Ti interface in real-time.
This approach offers groundbreaking insights into the nanoscale interactions between biomaterials and liquids.
