X-Ray Diffractometer Investigations of Bones from Domestic and Wild Animals
It is shown that by means of an X-ray diffractometer that in bone diaphyses of dog ( Canis familiaris L. ), wolf ( Canis lupus L. ), ox ( Bos taurus L. ), aurochs ( Bos primigenius Boj. ), domestic pig ( Sus domesticus L. ), and wild boar (Sus scrofa L.), the hydroxyapatite crystals are in all proba...
