A comparison of the physical and chemical differences between cancellous and cortical bovine bone mineral at two agesLiisa T Kuhn
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Children s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA
Calcif Tissue Int 83:146-54. 2008..Based on the larger proportion of newly formed bone in cancellous bone relative to cortical bone, the major differences between the cancellous and cortical mineral crystals must be ascribed to differences in average age of the crystals...
