[Distribution of mineral salts in structures of the compact substance of human bone].

Mineral distribution has been studied in osteoni and intermediate spaces of the compact substance in fibular and occipital human bones. The material has been taken from 34 corpses. Total mineral content was estimated by the contact microroentgenography technique. Calcium, phosphorus and magnium content and distribution were studied by means of X-ray spectral microanalysis. The results obtained characterized bone morphological structure depending on the degree of their miniralization. Peculiarities in calcium and phosphorus distribution along radius osteoni were studied. Quantitative data were obtained on their content in the bone morphological structures. In spite of uneven distribution of some elements in the bone samples, constant molar Ca/P ratio was noted.
