The role of Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans in the conversion of calcium phosphate from amorphous to crystalline state.

Two previously unknown modes of biomineralization observed in the presence of Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans are presented. Following the addition of NaHCO3 and the formation of an amorphous calcium phosphate precipitate in a DSMZ medium inoculated with C. hydrogenoformans, two distinct crystalli...
