This is necessary in order to obtain soft sections of the bone using the microtome . Every thin section cut can be processed like any other soft tissue of the body. Calcium ions found in the bones are responsible for its rigid posture, people suffering from diseases like osteomalacia and rickets have an unusually low amounts of calcium ions in their bones thereby rendering their bones flexible and most times unable to carry their body weight. There are two categories of decalcifying agents namely, chelating agents and acids. The acids are further divided into weak picric, acetic and formic acid and strong acids nitric and hydrochloric acid . The acids make up a solution of calcium ions while the chelating agents take up the calcium ions. Most frequently used chelating agent is EDTA Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. Acids have some effects on the stainability of the tissue. Decalcification is a lengthy procedure, as bone pieces have to be left in the decalcifying agent for several days or even weeks, depending on the size of the bone. Traditional methods of handling hard tissues, i.e. bone and teeth, usually present a problem to both the pathologist and histotechnologist. Many of the grossing and cutting in techniques in current usage for these tissues dictate the use of gross sectioning procedures with a high speed saw and or long periods in a decalcifying solution ... also Bone seeker DEFAULTSORT BoneDecalcification Category Anatomical pathology Pathology stub some of the methods for decalcification are presented below A 5 to 10 nitric acid solution you can make it by adding 5 to 10 cc of pure nitric acid with distilled water.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 Bone hemostasis is the process of controlling the bleeding from bone . Bone is a living vascular organ anatomy organ containing channels for blood and bone marrow . When a bone is cut during surgery bleeding can be a difficult problem to control, especially in the highly vascular bones of the Vertebral column spine and Human sternum sternum . Bleeding from soft tissue is normally stopped using a cautery that creates heat, causing blood vessels to collapse and become sealed. Since the blood in living bone flows through channels in the bone that do not collapse, a cautery is not effective in preventing bone bleeding. Blocking the holes in the bone typically stops bone bleeding. This can be done by mechanically blocking the holes tamponade effect , or by inducing a blood clot to form. In the past the easiest and most common way to stop bone bleeding was to apply bone wax , which is made from beeswax . The bone wax is smeared across the bleeding edge of the bone, blocking the holes and causing immediate hemostasis. Because of the complications associated with the use of bone wax, newer water soluble hemostatic agents, such as those made from alkylene oxide copolymer s have been developed.

Cortical bone facilitates bone s main functions to support the whole body, protect organs, provide levers for movement, and store and release chemical elements, mainly calcium. As its name implies, cortical bone forms the cortex anatomy cortex , or outer shell, of most bones. Again, as its name implies, compact bone is much denser than cancellous bone , which is the other type of osseous tissue. Furthermore, it is harder, stronger and stiffer than cancellous bone. Cortical bone contributes about 80 of the weight of a human skeleton. The primary anatomical and functional unit of cortical bone is the osteon. References Frank H.

They are one of five types of bones Long bone long , Short bone short , Flat bone flat , Irregular bone irregular and Sesamoid bone sesamoid . Long bones, especially the femur and tibia , are subjected to most of the load during daily activities and they are crucial for skeletal mobility. They grow primarily by elongation of the diaphysis , with an epiphysis at the ends of the growing bone . The ends of epiphyses are covered with a hyaline cartilage articular cartilage . The longitudinal growth of long bones is a result of endochondral ossification at the epiphyseal plate . Bone growth in length is stimulated by the production of growth hormone GH , a secretion of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland . The long bones include the femur s, tibia s, and fibula s of the legs, the humerus humeri , Radius bone radii , and ulna s of the arms, metacarpals and metatarsals of the hands and feet, and the Phalanx bones phalanges of the fingers and toes. The long bones of the human leg comprise nearly half of adult height. The other primary skeletal component of height is the Vertebra spine and human skull skull . The outside of the bone consists of a layer of connective tissue called the periosteum . Additionally, the outer shell of the long bone is compact bone , then a deeper layer of cancellous bone spongy bone which contains red bone marrow . The interior part of the long bone is the medullary cavity with the inner core of the bone cavity being composed of in adults of yellow marrow.
