Spectroscopic Assessment of Normal Cortical Bone: Differences in Relation to Bone Site and Sex
Bone is a highly complex, composite tissue and its properties normally vary with age, type, and disorders. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy techniques were used to study the effect of bone sites and sex to mineral and matrix content and composition. Th...
