The role of confined collagen geometry in decreasing nucleation energy barriers to intrafibrillar mineralization
Nucleation in highly confined gaps shows distinctly different behavior from nucleation in extrafibrillar spaces. Here, using in situ X-ray scattering and classical nucleation theory, the authors show how confined geometry reduces energy barriers to intrafibrillar mineralization of collagen.
