The use of histological examination methods to distinguish between the burnt remains of human and non-human bones
Distinguishing between burnt human and non-human bone fragments using macroscopic methods has proved challenging and it was seen in the literature review that the previous research did not all come to the same conclusions. The aim of the research was to determine if, using histological methods, it …

A study of the comparative methods for the rare earth determination in bones and the rare earth content in human bones
… have been enumerated. The rare earth elements in human bone have been identified by means of emission spectroscopy. Yttrium in human bone has been determined quantitatively by mean of emission spectroscopy. Any chemical determination of the rare earth elements in human bone presents extreme …

A study of the methods of determination of the rare earth elements in a substance with a high concentration of calcium and phosphates and the application to human bones
A method for determining the rare elements in bones and similar materials includes [eight] steps.

The tin church
Human bones are discovered on the farm Hebron near Swaziland where two old women, Catherine and Maria, live. Their memories are stirred and disturbed by the discovery. Two young girls weave a close bond of friendship on the farm. Their childhood promises made in the tin church on the hill above …

A comparative microscopic study of human and non-human long bone histology.
Identification of human or nonhuman skeletal remains is important in assisting the police and law enforcement officers for the investigation of forensic cases. Identification of bone can be difficult, especially in fragmented remains. It has been reported that 25 to 30% of medicolegal cases, which …

A study of bone chemistry in forensic applications
… accurately estimating the post-burial time of bones. Bones were buried in diverse soil environments for 18 months and subsequently examined using various analytical techniques. Pig rib bones were used as an analogue for human bones. The burial environments varied in factors including soil type, …

Evaluation of hydroxyapatite (HA) from waste eggshell strengthened with ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) by using injection molding process
… met in order to implant certain material inside human body. Therefore, this research followed the standard of stoichiometric which has been set by US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) , due to its similarity with the mineral constituents of human bones and teeth which is Ca/P=1.67. HA was …

Feasibility of waste-derived hydroxyapatite mixed with ultra high molecular weight polyethylene composites for fused deposition modeling process
… commercial HAp. Ca/P ratio was so important to human body because Ca influence growth of human bones and P play a role in immune system activation. This research has used waste eggshell has been used to synthesize HAp by using hydrothermal synthesis. The Ca/P ratio was investigated by using …

Validation of Subject Specific Computed Tomography-based Finite Element Models of the Human Proximal Tibia using Full-field Experimental Displacement Measurements from Digital Volume Correlation
… low DVC displacement measurement error in long human bones, and 2) apply different density-modulus relationships and material models from the literature to QCT-FE models of the proximal tibia and identify those approaches which best predicted experimentally measured internal bone displacements …

The use of histological methods to distinguish between burned remains of human and non-human bone
… to identify if bone tissue is animal or human in nature. This process is complicated when bone is highly fragmented or burned. Previous research has established the ability to differentiate human from non-human bone histologically, however, further research is necessary to determine if …

Porous calcium phosphate granules for biomedical applications
… a chemical composition similar to the mineral of human bones, i.e. apatite. For this reason they are biocompatible and they can interact in a bioactive way with bone tissue. In the present work a specific form of bone graft, in the form of calcium phosphate granules, has been developed by using …

Molekulargenetische Verwandtschaftsanalysen am prähistorischen Skelettkollektiv der Lichtensteinhöhle
Die Prähistorische Anthropologie befasst sich mit den Lebensbedingungen und Lebensweisen der Menschen vergangener Zeiträume. Im Fokus der anthropologischen Forschung liegt dabei die Aufklärung verwandtschaftlicher Beziehungen, da komplexe Sozialstrukturen Einblicke in kulturhistorische …
