Pigs were absent in the New World, and the finding of a single pig bone in an undated midden makes a most unlikely explanation for the epidemic.
I didn't see any pig bones or carcasses, I don't know if they're eaten by the other pigs when they pass on or if they decompose.
This paper examined a novel application of pig bone waste for the synthesis of HAp via heat treatment between 600 and 1000 °C.
in a pot of morselized pig bone graft.
In a laboratory study on impacted pig bone, Marck Van Liefland (2006) reported that "high-frequency impaction achieved high compaction at low load".
Because the in vitro result does not always represent in vivo outcome owing to the complicated in vivo environment, the second aim was to further compare the bone regeneration capacity between PCL/PBMSCs and PCL/HA/PBMSCs tissue-engineered construct in a pig temporal bone defect model.
In each pig, four groups were compared: cancellous bone autograft, freeze-dried irradiated cancellous pig bone, 3D AMSC, and an empty cage.
Twenty pig bone segments were dissected and embedded in resin.
In this paper, model bones with mechanical characteristics similar to those of human bone and pig bone, were endmilled.
Pig bone marrow was aspirated according to the above-mentioned procedure described for BMMC isolation.
