Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a simple solubility screen based on a limited set of precipitants has been extensively used in the comparison of various protein preparations and in the crystallization of macromolecular complexes.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A growth mechanism for the coiled carbon fibers called the quasi-VLS mechanism is proposed in this article, which involves the surface diffusion of carbon species on the Ni compound seed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a model of enamel formation in the presence of 1 ppm F − at 37°C and at pH 6.5 was presented, which strongly supported the idea that enamel crystals take a thin and long ribbon-like morphology when the initially formed OCP acts as a template for the subsequent growth of apatite.
