| Abstract (English): | Coralline red algae assimilate HCO3- to precipitate CaCO3 in their tissues in the form of calcite or aragonite. A characterization of the biomolecular content and the crystalline structure of the biomineral of coralline red algae from the Pacific coast of Mexico was performed by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron (SEM) and tunneling microscopy (STM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The preliminary conclusion drawn from the results is that this type of calcite-aragonite biomineral has a very low organic content occluded within the crystals. FTIR bands at 2945 and 2889 cm-1 indicate that the most likely organic molecules are carbohydrates; moreover, peptide bond bands (amide I ∼1640 and amide II ∼1540 cm-1) were not detected, suggesting that proteins are not related to mineral synthesis or their stabilization. This could be explained if the biomineral is synthesized by a biologically controlled extracellular mineralization process. The XRD study showed two main mineral phases, calcite and aragonite, with very similar structural parameters to the inorganic mineral counterparts. The crystallite shapes, seen by STM, were found as plates and needles with different sizes, between 20 and 100 nm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | Las algas rojas coralinas asimilan HCO3- para precipitar CaCO3 en sus tejidos en forma de calcita o aragonita. Se realizó una caracterización del contenido biomolecular así como de la estructura cristalina del biomineral en algas rojas coralinas de las costas del Pacífico mexicano mediante difracción de rayos X (XRD) en polvos, microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB) y de túnel (STM), y espectroscopía infrarroja con transformada de Fourier (FTIR). Con los resultados se llegó a la conclusión preliminar de que este tipo de calcita-aragonita tiene un muy bajo contenido de materia orgánica ocluida dentro de los cristales. Las bandas de FTIR a 2945 y 2889 cm-1 encontradas indican que las moléculas orgánicas más probables son los hidratos de carbono; además, no se detectaron bandas de enlace peptídico (amida I ∼1640 y amida II ∼1540 cm-1), lo que sugiere que las proteínas no están relacionadas con la síntesis mineral o con su estabilización. Esto se podría explicar si el biomineral fuera sintetizado por un proceso extracelular de mineralización controlado biológicamente. El análisis de XRD mostró dos fases minerales principales, calcita y aragonita, muy similares en sus parámetros estructurales a sus contrapartes minerales inorgánicas pero con modificaciones en la estructura molecular. Las formas y tamaños de los cristales, vistos mediante STM, son típicamente en placas y agujas de diferentes tamaños, entre 20 y 100 nm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
