Vesicle-and Collagen-Mediated Calcification in the Turkey Leg Tendon
Abstract
The distribution, organization, and orientation of apatitic mineral associated with vesicles and collagen in normal calcifying turkey leg tendon have been examined to determine inorganic-organic interactions in this vertebrate tissue. The study utilized selected area electron diffraction and bright or dark field transmission electron microscopy of thin sections (approximately 70 nm) treated by anhydrous means. Bright field microscopy revealed …
