Abstract
Osteochondral (OC) lesions can occur in the knee and ankle. Such lesions induce a fracture in the cartilage protecting the bone joints. Cartilage tissue shows limited self-regeneration ability, hence the tissue is avascular and lack of vascular innervation, while the bone is a unique organ with the capacity to self-repair of small defects. In this present study, we have prepared a scaffold using demineralized bone powder (DBP) extracted from Gallus gallus var domesticus (GD), and Gellan gum (GG) for OC tissue regeneration. They were characterized for their chemical, physical, mechanical and biological properties using different available techniques, in vitro bioactivity was performed in simulated body fluid for 14 days confirming the formation of bone-like apatite. The in vitro biocompatibility was analyzed using chondrocyte cells and osteogenic and chondrogenic marker gene expression using RT-PCR, in vivo experiments performed by implanting scaffold in rabbit and characterized by histology and immunofluorescent stainings. The obtained results indicated that the prepared pores scaffold was biocompatible, and promote OC regeneration and integration of newly formed tissues with the host tissues in a rabbit. The prepared 1% DBP/GG scaffold can be used as a potential and promising alternate material for OC regeneration.

Abstract
Dissolution of cortical bone mineral under demineralization in 0.1 M HCl and 0.1 M EDTA solutions is studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The bone specimens (in the form of planar oriented pieces) were cut from a diaphysial fragment of a mature mammal bone so that a cross-section surface and a longitudinal section surface could be analyzed individually. This permitted to compare the dissolution behavior of bone apatite of different morphologies: crystals having the c-axis of the hexagonal unit-cell generally parallel to the long axis of the bone (major morphology) and those having the c-axis almost perpendicular to the bone axis (minor morphology). For these two types of morphology, the crystallite sizes in two mutually perpendicular directions (namely, [002] and [310]) were estimated by Scherrer formula in the initial and the stepwise-demineralized specimens. The data obtained reveal that the crystals belonging to the minor morphology dissolve faster than the crystals of the major morphological type, despite the fact that the crystallites of the minor morphology seem to be only a little smaller than those of the major morphology; the apatite crystallites irrespective of the morphology type are elongated in the c-axis direction. We hypothesize that the revealed difference in solubility may be caused by diverse chemical modifications of apatite of these two morphological types, since the solubility of apatite is strictly regulated by anionic and cationic substitutions in the lattice. The anisotropy effect in solubility of bone mineral seems to be functionally predetermined and this should be a crucial factor in the resorption and remodeling behavior of a bone. Some challenges arising at XRD examination of partially decalcified cortical bone blocks are discussed, as well as the limitations of estimation of bone crystallite size by XRD line-broadening analysis.

Abstract
It is now accepted that bone strength is a complex property determined mainly by three factors: quantity, quality and turnover of the bone itself. Most of the patients who experience fractures due to fragility could never develop affectations related to bone mass density (i.e. osteoporosis). In this work, the effect of secondary bone strength affectations are analyzed by simulating the degradation of one or more principal components (organic and inorganic) while they are inspected with a nondestructive optical technique. From the results obtained, a strong correlation among the hydroxyapatite, collagen and water is found that determines the bone strength.

Abstract
We evaluated the degradation of cortical bone tissue by hydrochloric acid (HCl) since intentional bone decalcification in a forensic context has not been studied on a histomorphological level. We used 70 pig metatarsal bones split into subsamples and immersed in one of three concentrations of acidic solutions (0.5M, 1M, 2M HCl) for two and four hours. We analyzed the cortical thicknesses on transversal cross-sections, thicknesses of the three histomorphologically distinct zones present in acid-immersed bones, and number and area of crystals present in one of the zones. Furthermore, we analyzed the ratio of calcium to phosphorus (Ca:P). We observed a division of the cortical bone cross section into three distinctive zones: demineralized matrix (DM) in the periosteal part of bone, middle contact zone (CZ), and mineralized matrix (MM) in the endosteal part of bone. With increasing acid concentration and time of immersion (from 0.5M HCl for 2h to 2M HCl for 4h), the thickness of DM increased by 67%, the thickness of CZ increased by 56%, and the thickness of MM decreased by 32%. The Ca:P ratio in the contact zone of acid-treated samples did not change significantly with changing acid concentration and time of immersion. The Ca:P ratio of the CZ decreased by 10% when compared to the Ca:P ratio of MM in acid-treated samples. Moreover, we observed crystals on the outer periosteal border of the DM zone, in the CZ, and in the MM Haversian/Volkmann's canals. The size and number of the crystals in the CZ of acid-treated bones increased with acid concentration and time of acid immersion. Moreover, we also observed significant differences in all analyzed properties between anatomical regions. Due to varying reactions to acid immersion among anatomical regions, bone micro-degradation should be observed separately for each region.

Abstract
Chicken bone is not adequately utilized despite its high nutritional value and protein content. Although not a common raw material, chicken bone can be used in many different ways besides manufacturing of collagen products. In this study, a multi-step procedure was optimized to isolate chicken bone collagen for higher yield and quality for manufacture of collagen products. The chemical composition of chicken bone was 2.9% nitrogen corresponding to about 15.6% protein, 9.5% fat, 14.7% mineral and 57.5% moisture. The lowest amount of protein loss was aimed along with the separation of the highest amount of visible impurities, non-collagen proteins, minerals and fats. Treatments under optimum conditions removed 57.1% of fats and 87.5% of minerals with respect to their initial concentrations. Meanwhile, 18.6% of protein and 14.9% of hydroxyproline were lost, suggesting that a selective separation of non-collagen components and isolation of collagen were achieved. A significant part of impurities were selectively removed and over 80% of the original collagen was preserved during the treatments.

Abstract
Fish scale, separated during fish mechanical processing, can serve as an additional source of proteins, especially of collagen proteins. To obtain high purity native collagen, it is required to carry out deproteinization and demineralization of fish scales. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the optimal conditions for demineralization of Cyprinus carpio haematopterus scale without loss of collagen content in HCl solution. Here, the demineralization of Cyprinus carpio haematopterus scale was optimized by response surface methodology. The optimum conditions were as follows: extraction time of 95 min, concentration of HCl of 1.0 M, and ratio of material to solution of 1:11. Under these conditions, the experimental yield of demineralization of scales was 92.7 ± 1.32 %, which was well consistent with the value predicted by the model.

Abstract
The mechanical properties of demineralized bovine cortical femur bone were investigated by cyclic loading-unloading compression in three anatomical directions (longitudinal, radial, transverse) within the physiological strain range. The loading responses in the radial and transverse directions were nearly linear up to 2% strain, while the response in longitudinal direction was strongly non-linear in that range. The unloading responses were non-linear for each anatomical direction, giving rise to overall loading-unloading hysteresis and cyclic dissipation of energy. The mechanical properties were observed to be anisotropic: the radial direction was found to be the most energy dissipative, while the longitudinal direction appeared to be the stiffest bone direction. The cyclic loading mostly affects the bone stiffness in the radial and transverse directions, while the longitudinal direction was found to be the least affected. These anisotropic properties can be attributed to the differences in collagen fibers alignment and different microstructural architecture in three different anatomical bone directions.

Abstract
The mechanical properties and microstructure of young and mature bovine femur bone were investigated by optical microscopy and compression testing in the longitudinal and transverse directions for untreated, deproteinized and demineralized cases. Optical microscopy revealed that mature bone has a more established and less porous microstructure compared to young bone. Mature bone was found to be stronger in both directions for the untreated and deproteinized cases. Mature untreated bone was also found to be stiffer and less tough compared to young bone in both directions. These results are related to the increase in mineralization of mature bone and significant microstructural differences. Young bone was found to be stronger in both directions for the demineralized case, which is attributed to alterations in the collagen network with age.

Abstract
The hierarchical heterogeneous architecture of bone imposes significant challenges to structural and dynamic studies conducted by traditional biophysical techniques. High-resolution solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectroscopy is capable of providing detailed atomic-level structural insights into such traditionally challenging materials. However, the relatively long data-collection time necessary to achieve a reliable signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) remains a major limitation for the widespread application of SSNMR on bone and related biomaterials. In this study, we attempt to overcome this limitation by employing the paramagnetic relaxation properties of copper(II) ions to shorten the (1)H intrinsic spin-lattice (T(1)) relaxation times measured in natural-abundance (13)C cross-polarization (CP) magic-angle-spinning (MAS) NMR experiments on bone tissues for the purpose of accelerating the data acquisition time in SSNMR. To this end, high-resolution solid-state (13)C CPMAS experiments were conducted on type I collagen (bovine tendon), bovine cortical bone, and demineralized bovine cortical bone, each in powdered form, to measure the (1)H T(1) values in the absence and in the presence of 30 mM Cu(II)(NH(4))(2)EDTA. Our results show that the (1)H T(1) values were successfully reduced by a factor of 2.2, 2.9, and 3.2 for bovine cortical bone, type I collagen, and demineralized bone, respectively, without reducing the spectral resolution and thus enabling faster data acquisition. In addition, paramagnetic quenching of particular (13)C NMR resonances on exposure to Cu(2+) ions in the absence of mineral was also observed, potentially suggesting the relative proximity of three main amino acids in the protein backbone (glycine, proline, and alanine) to the bone mineral surface.

Abstract
A theoretical experimentally based multi-scale model of the elastic response of cortical bone is presented. It portrays the hierarchical structure of bone as a composite with interpenetrating biopolymers (collagen and non-collagenous proteins) and minerals (hydroxyapatite), together with void spaces (porosity). The model involves a bottom-up approach and employs micromechanics and classical lamination theories of composite materials. Experiments on cortical bone samples from bovine femur include completely demineralized and deproteinized bones as well as untreated bone samples. Porosity and microstructure are characterized using optical and scanning electron microscopy, and micro-computed tomography. Compression testing is used to measure longitudinal and transverse elastic moduli of all three bone types. The characterization of structure and properties of these three bone states provides a deeper understanding of the contributions of the individual components of bone to its elastic response and allows fine tuning of modeling assumptions. Very good agreement is found between theoretical modeling and compression testing results, confirming the validity of the interpretation of bone as an interpenetrating composite material.

Abstract
The mechanical properties of fully demineralized, fully deproteinized and untreated cortical bovine femur bone were investigated by compression testing in three anatomical directions (longitudinal, radial and transverse). The weighted sum of the stress-strain curves of the treated bones was far lower than that of the untreated bone, indicating a strong molecular and/or mechanical interaction between the collagen matrix and the mineral phase. Demineralization and deproteinization of the bone demonstrated that contiguous, stand-alone structures result, showing that bone can be considered an interpenetrating composite material. Structural features of the samples from all groups were studied by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Anisotropic mechanical properties were observed: the radial direction was found to be the strongest for untreated bone, while the longitudinal one was found to be the strongest for deproteinized and demineralized bones. A possible explanation for this phenomenon is the difference in bone microstructure in the radial and longitudinal directions.
