The biomechanical characteristics of 1.2 mm diameter allogeneic cortical bone pins harvested from the canine tibia were evaluated and compared to 1.1 mm diameter stainless steel pins and 1.3 mm diameter polydioxanone (PDS) pins using impact testing and four-point bending. The biomechanical performance of allogeneic cortical bone pins using impact testing was uniform with no significant differen...

Background: Bone tissue engineering requires materials that are biocompatible, mechanically suited for bone function, integrated with the host skeleton, and support osteoinduction of the implanted cells for new bone formation. The aim of this study was to compare the osteogenic potential of xenograft with hydroxyapatite/β- tricalcium phosphate (HA/β-TCP) scaffold. Methods: New Zealand rabbits (...

objective(s): adipose derived stem cells (adscs) can be engineered to express bone specific markers. the aim of this study is to evaluate repairing tibia in animal model with differentiated osteoblasts from autologous adscs in alginate scaffold. materials and methods: in this study, 6 canine’s adscs were encapsulated in alginate and differentiated into osteoblasts. alkaline phosphatase assay (a...

background: in this experimental study, the radiographic and biomechanical characteristics of osteoperforated rabbit tibia during bone repair period were investigated. materials and methods: using dental drills, 2 mm holes were drilled at the mid-shaft of right tibia in 12 new zealand white rabbits. the left tibia was intact and selected as the control. x-rays of the left and right tibias were ...

*Corresponding Author Kemei Peng [email protected] The Ostrich tibia belongs to the long bone, which has a complex structure comprising to different types of bone cell, a calcified extracellular matrix and two crisscross pipelines. Few present report concerning on the histological structure of Ostrich tibia had been carried out. This experiment was carried out to investigate the Tibia Morpholo...

BACKGROUND: Exogenous phytase enhances the utilization of plant phytate phosphorus in poultry. OBJECTIVES: In the present study the effects of exogenous phytase was investigated on tibia bone characteristics of white quail. METHODS: In a 2x2 factorial arrangement, eighty, 11-day old unsexed chicks were randomly divided into 4 treatments of 20 replicates. All birds received one of four experimen...

BACKGROUND Bone-grafting procedures are common in head and neck surgery. Donor site morbidity is an important factor in deciding the site for harvest of cancellous bone. The tibia has been recommended as a harvest site. Use of the proximal tibia as a donor site is associated with few complications. Our present study used proximal tibia bone grafts to reconstruct maxillofacial defects and augmen...

of the Caucasian population. The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphometry of the proximal tibia in thestandard resected surface of total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods: In this descriptive study, the anthropometric data of the proximal tibia were measured in 132 knees (80 malesand 52 females) using magnetic resonance imaging in 2015. The collected data include...
