Architecture of crossed-lamellar bivalve shells: the southern giant clam (Tridacna derasa, Röding, 1798)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Royal Society Open Science"
DOI: 10.1098/rsos.170622
Abstract: Tridacna derasa shells show a crossed lamellar microstructure consisting of three hierarchical lamellar structural orders. The mineral part is intimately intergrown with 0.9 wt% organics, namely polysaccharides, glycosylated and unglycosylated proteins and lipids, identified by… read more here.
