Femoral Bone Mineral Assessment

The femora were thawed, cleaned of soft connective tissue, placed in a pDEXA scanner (Sabre XL; Norland Stratec, Pforzheim, Germany), and scanned using a pixel size of 0.1 × 0.1 mm2. The bone mineral content (BMC) and the area bone mineral density (aBMD) of the whole bone were determined with the software provided with the scanner. Quality assurance was performed by scans of the two solid-state phantoms provided with the scanner. The coefficient of variation (CV) of mice femoral aBMD is 2.4% in our laboratory.

After euthanization the right femora was exarticulated at the hip and the knee joint and stored in Ringer's solution at −20°C. The femora were thawed, dissected free of soft connective tissue, and placed in a standardized way in a peripheral DXA scanner (Sabre XL, Norland Stratec, Pforzheim, Germany) and scanned with a pixel size of 0.1 mm ×0.1 mm at a velocity of 2 mm/s. The areal bone mineral density (aBMD) was determined using the software provided with the scanner.

The length of the femora was measured with a digital sliding caliper, and the femora were then placed in a DEXA scanner (Sabre XL, Norland Stratec), and scanned with an isotropic pixel size of 0.1 mm. Bone mineral content (BMC) and areal bone mineral density (aBMD) were determined for the whole femur. Quality assurance was performed by scans of the two solid-state phantoms provided with the scanner.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
