Relationship between the heterogeneity in mechanical properties, bone density and composition parameters of cortical bone to design and develop bone scaffolds and implants: Analysis of bone microstructure

Bone is heterogeneous and anisotropic because its mechanical characteristics vary by anatomic location and loading direction. Previous research established a correlation between bone density, mineral, organic content, and porosity and mechanical qualities. Medical and bioengineering researchers can learn about bone heterogeneity and anisotropy by analysing bone density and later composition parameters across the bone diaphysis in both longitudinal and transverse orientations. This research examines bone density and composition parameters in bovine femoral cortical bone from higher, middle, and lower diaphysis regions and longitudinal and transverse orientations. At three homogeneous diaphysis sites, these properties did not alter in longitudinal or transverse orientations. At the upper and lower diaphysis locations, mineral and organic content were statistically different in both longitudinal and transverse orientations, contributing to anisotropy. At the middle location, all measured parameters were not statistically different. Transverse bone density and water heterogeneity were greater, while longitudinal values were higher for the other metrics. Upper and lower sites had increased bone variability due to %water, although mineral content was more homogenous. The longitudinal and transverse organic content and apparent density heterogeneity was greater at the middle position. At the later site, bone density and mineral content were more homogenous longitudinally and transversely. Lamellar bone microstructure with canalicular/vascular network, cavities, and holes contributed to bone materials' %water content. Collagen fibres contributed to bone material's organic composition, whereas intrafibrillar and extra fibrillar minerals contributed to its mineral content.
