This work explores the mechanisms underlying the crystallization of citrate-functionalized amorphous calcium phosphate (cit-ACP) in two relevant media, combining in situ and ex situ characterization techniques. Results demonstrate that citrate desorption from cit-ACP triggers the surface-mediated transformation to nanocrystalline apatite (Ap). Our findings shed light on the key role of citrate, an important component of bone organic matrix, and the medium composition in controlling the rate of transformation and the morphology of the resulting Ap phase.
