abstract：:Size measurements of dispersed rat bone crystals show that with age a greater proportion exceeds 400 A in length. The surface fractures of more heavily mineralized bones tend to be smooth and stepped, whereas those of less mineralized bones are fibrous. These observations combined with information reported elsewhere o...
