An Experimental Study Of Mechanical Properties Of Non Enzymatically Glycated Bovine Femur Cortical Bone

The aim of this study is to investigate the deterioration in mechanical integrity of the collagen network in bovine bone with aging, which are related to fracture toughness. Age-related changes in collagen molecular structures formed by non-enzymatic glycation were examined and indentation fracture...
