| Research Abstract |
In this study, to propose a novel bone quality evaluation as diagnosis of posteoporosis, the mechanical analysis of nano-composite bone structure of apatite/collagen phases was carried out.At first, the microscopic mechanical behaviors of both mineral particles of apatite and collagen matrix in bone are observed by wide-angle X-ray scattering caused by the lattice structure of apatite crystals and small-angle X-ray scattering caused by the periodic structure of collagen molecules, respectively. In combination with micro-compressive device, both strains of mineral and collagen phases were measured simultanously. Based on these knowledges on bone micro-structure, to evaluate the possibility of Raman spectroscopy as novel bone quality assessment, the mechanical behaviors of mineral and collagen phases in bone tissue were measured by using Raman microscope. And, the effects of mechanical properties and ageing of bone were evaluated.
