The organic macromolecules are a vital component of the mineral, being involved in nucleation and growth control, and definition of mechanical properties.
In this dynamical process the time delay between infrasonic pulses should reflect the gas nucleation interval of 1-2 s of basaltic magma.
In this work a sapphire substrate was used and it is believed that ordered nucleation occurred.
An example of such a system is the nucleation of calcite crystals on carboxylic acid terminated alkyl thiols, which produces highly oriented crystals.
Under some conditions cofilin severs actin filaments, providing new plus ends for nucleation of actin filament growth.
