Abstract

The nucleation and growth of crystallites from a model saliva solution in the presence of amino acids (in concentrations corresponding to the physiological level and exceeding the norm by a factor of 5) have been studied. It is found that additives may either decrease or increase the crystallization rate, depending on the nature of amino acid, its concentration, and the initial supersaturation of the solution.
