Mussel byssus-inspired dual-functionalization of zirconia dental implants for improved bone integration
Published 2024-04-01“…Here, we fabricated a dual-functional coating that incorporates strontium ions, aimed at enhancing osteogenic activity, along with an integrin-targeting sequence to improve cell adhesion by mussel byssus-inspired surface chemistry. The results indicated that although the integrin-targeting sequence at the interface solely enhances osteoblast adhesion without directly increasing osteogenic activity, its synergistic interaction with the continuously released strontium ions from the coating, as compared to the release of strontium ions alone, significantly enhances the overall osteogenic effect. …”

Four-stranded coiled-coil elastic protein in the byssus of the giant clam, Tridacna maxima
Published 2013“…An elastic protein with a secondary structure distinct from all well-known load-bearing proteins is found in the byssus of the giant clam, Tridacna maxima. The byssus consists of a bundle of hundreds of individual threads, each measuring about about 100 μm in diameter, which exhibit a tendon-like mechanical response. …”

Byssus of the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis (Linnaeus) as a biomonitoring material for Zn
Published 2005“…Higher R-values were found between the byssus–easily or freely, leachable and exchangeable, byssus–acid-reducible, byssus–oxidizable-organic and byssus–nonresistant fractions of the sediment, and the byssus–Zn concentration in the total sediment when compared to those found between the soft tissue and the same geochemical fractions. …”
