abstract = "Structure of the lyophilised colonies of the freshwater bryozoan Hyalinella
punctata (Hancock, 1850) and their mineral element composition were studied by
X ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and inductively coupled
plasma (ICP) spectrometry for the first time ever. The X ray measurements showed
amorphous structure of the bryozoan, while SEM indicated porous connected
structure without regular structural motifs. Considerable presence of phosphorus
(7949.69 μg/ml), sulphur (6204.7 μg/ml) and calcium (6139.58 μg/ml), as well as
low heavy metal content was found by ICP. The obtained results jointly indicate
the potential of the investigated animal species as a base for bioscaffolds and
nanocomposites",
