FORENSIC TOXICOLOGY IN UNCONVENTIONAL BIOLOGICAL MATRICES: THEEMERGING ARCHAEOTOXICOLOGICAL FIELD APPLIED TO BONE REMAINS ANDBRAIN TISSUE IN ANCIENT POPULATIONS
La tossicologia forense è una branca specializzata della tossicologia che svolge un ruolo cruciale nelle scienze forensi, rilevando e interpretando la presenza di sostanze esogene all'interno di matrici biologiche a fini medico-legali. La tossicologia forense include analisi sia qualitative che …

From Bones to Bytes
The digital acquisition of animal bone remains opens up new possibilities for reproducible computational analyses in archaeozoology. This thesis combines computer science, morphometrics, and archaeozoology in a unified framework spanning tabular osteometric data, landmark-based morphology, and …

Soft Tissue Composition, Cardiometabolic Risk, and Bone Development in Young Girls
… on the effects of obesity during childhood on bone development. Obesity and skeletal fragility have been previously thought to be two distinct conditions rarely found occurring in the same individual, as excess adiposity is thought to enhance bone strength due to the increase in mechanical …

Numerical simulation of implant-bone interaction following cementless joint replacement
… bond between the prosthesis and the surrounding bone remains a considerable problem. As a result, cementless implants have been developed. These components rely on the ingrowth of bone into a porous coating, which covers a portion of the component surface, to achieve the required mechanical …

Design and Optimization of Angiogenic, Antibacterial Si-Zn-Hydroxyapatite for Use as Filler Particles in Polycaprolactone Nanocomposites
… and mechanical resilience of native bone remains a central challenge in tissue engineering. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a widely used osteoconductive ceramic, but clinical outcomes can be limited by relatively low levels of bioactivity, inherent brittleness, slow in vivo resorption, and …
