We also wanted to compare inorganic and organic components in the bones with BMD as determined by QCT. In this preliminary pilot study, we applied chemical analysis, ICP-OES, ICP-MS, XRD, TGA and FTIR-ATR to analyse 14 bovine bone samples. The results of these physico-chemical methods ...
There have been multiple studies applying XRD, TGA and FTIR to bone research starting in the 1950s, especially in the field of bone structure and regenerative medicine (among others: [41–48]). Certainly, as described above, many studies applied these techniques or other forms of spectrometry ...
