Abalone shell, nacre

Fig. 2. Nacre of red abalone shell Halitotis refescens), imaged here by transmission electron microscopy (left), has a bricks-and-mortar structure. The bricks are CaCOs (aragonite) platelets, and the mortar is a composite of macromolecules, including structural proteins and polysaccharides, that form a thin film around the platelets. The three-dimensional structure is depicted on the right [23]... Fig. 2.
