If you know me, I have probably told you how E.coli 🦠 can accumulate hydroxyapatite. In this preprint, I show that Zinc is colocalized with the mineral accumulation www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-7... Thanks to @cmbidan.bsky.social and all the other co-authors and to @mpici.bsky.social

Accumulation of zinc during E. coli biofilm mineralization: within or surrounding the hydroxyapatite?
