Research Abstract |
The process that some minerals actively precipitated by biology are called as biomineralization. Foraminifera is one of the key calcifyer in marine environment. This study try to clarify the biomineraliczation process of foraminifera by cell biology. Intra cellular distributions of calcium pH, magnesium ,mito and golgi complex are visualized by fluorescent dyes. Mineralogy of crystals can be decided even during on-going calcification process.
