Molecular modulation of calcium oxalate crystallization by osteopontin and citrate.

TL;DR: Molecular-scale views of COM modulation by two urinary constituents, the protein osteopontin and citrate, a common therapeutic agent are reported and it is shown that each controls growth habit and kinetics by pinning step motion on different faces through specific interactions in which both size and structure determine the effectiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of molecular charge and hydrophilicity in regulating the kinetics of crystal growth.

TL;DR: The mechanism of growth enhancement is interpreted to be a catalytic process whereby biomolecules reduce the magnitude of the diffusive barrier by perturbations that displace water molecules, resulting in a decrease in the energy barrier for attachment of solutes to the solid phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid growth of large-scale (40–55 cm) KH2PO4 crystals

TL;DR: KH2PO4 single crystals up to 45 cm in size have been grown by the rapid growth technique on the point seed in glass crystallizers of 1000 L in volume at growth rates of 10-20 mm/day in both the [0 0 1] and [1 0 0] directions as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rethinking Classical Crystal Growth Models through Molecular Scale Insights: Consequences of Kink-Limited Kinetics

TL;DR: The terrace-ledge-kink model of crystal growth is widely used to interpret mineral formation in biological and geological systems as discussed by the authors, but it is not suitable for calcite step-edge structures.
