Laboratory techniques presented here will help researchers investigating the mechanisms by which certain genes affect bone mass and strength. These reproducible methods cover such topics as the isolation and culture of bone cells, the preparation of bone tissue for histological testing, and the use

A collection of the latest laboratory techniques for the study of bone and bone tissue. Described in step-by-step detail, these readily reproducible methods cover such topics as the isolation and culture of bone cells, the preparation of bone tissue for histological and ultrastructural analysis, methods for the measurement of bone strength and for mechanical studies, and how to use digital imaging techniques in the analysis of bone.
