The phrase "ability of the bone" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing the characteristics or functions of bones, particularly in medical or biological discussions.
Example: "The ability of the bone to regenerate after a fracture is a remarkable aspect of human anatomy."
Alternatives: "capacity of the bone" or "function of the bone".
Bone fracture occurs when the bone strength (i.e. the ability of the bone to resist a force) is less than the force applied to the bone.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the physical properties of synthetic hydroxyapatite (sHA) and hydroxyapatite from eggshells (eHA) by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) and to compare the regenerative ability of the bone using sHA and eHA in a rabbit calvarial defect model.
The distance of the fracture from the end of the bone is also considered when evaluating the remodeling ability of the bone.
Malaria infection results in destruction of both infected and non-infected red blood cells and depresses the ability of the bone marrow to produce new red blood cells.
Another avenue of research is to use recombinant growth factors to promote and enhance the natural ability of the bone to repair the tendon [15].
Although not statistically significant, this suggests that deletion of PECAM-1 from either the host vasculature or donor HSC results in a delay in the ability of the bone marrow cells to cross endothelium as measured by their increased adherence to the bone marrow lumen.
An extract of leukaemic bone marrow cells significantly suppressed colony forming ability of the normal bone marrow cells, whereas an extract of normal bone marrow cells did not suppress it except in two cases.
2 A better clinical measure of overall bone strength that more accurately reflects the ability of that bone to resist fracture and hence fracture risk reflect an unmet need and is urgently required.
The pterygoid plates can bend only to a limited extent with pressure, and this confining effect of the pterygoid plates of the sphenoid minimizes the ability of the palatine bones to separate at the midsagittal plane [18].
The authors concluded that bone wax impaired the ability of cancellous bone to clear the infection [ 22].
The ability of cortical bone to resist the damage induced during cyclic loading may be altered by the reduced remodeling and increased tissue age resulting from long-term bisphosphonate treatment.
