Design strategies in mineralized biological materials
Abstract
Organisms have been producing mineralized skeletons for the past 550 million years. They have evolved many different strategies for improving these materials at almost all hierarchical levels from Ångstroms to millimetres. Key components of biological materials are the macromolecules, which are intimately involved in controlling nucleation, growth, shaping and adapting mechanical properties of the mineral phase to function. One interesting tendency that we have noted is that organisms have developed several strategies to produce materials that have more isotropic properties. Much can still be learned from studying the principles of structure–function relations of biological materials. Some of this information may also provide new ideas for improved design of synthetic materials.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
