Freshwater crayfish found to have substance covering teeth astonishingly similar to human enamel
A team of Israeli and German scientists from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) and the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces have found an enamel-like layer in the mandibles of freshwater crayfish, according to an article in Nature Communications titled “Enamel-like Apatite Crown Covering Amorphous Mineral in a Crayfish Mandible.” Dr. Shmuel Bentov from BGU’s Avram and Stella Goldstein-Goren Department of Biotechnology Engineering discovered that this species of crayfish protect their teeth against wear in a very specific and surprising manner: they produce a highly mineralized protective coating based on calcium phosphate, which is strikingly similar to the enamel of vertebrates. The “enamel” in the crayfish tooth serves as a protective layer for the softer under layer that is made, similar to the rest of the exoskeleton, from amorphous calcium carbonate.
