Differences in compact bone tissue microscopic structure between adult humans (Homo sapiens) and Assam macaques (Macaca assamensis)

© 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. This study investigated the osteon structure of adult humans and Assam macaques, which served as a nonhuman primate model, to find an adequate key for species identification. Samples of compact bone from humans (n = 5) and Assam macaques (n = 5) - including humerus (n =...

This study investigated the osteon structure of adult humans and Assam macaques, which served as a nonhuman primate model, to find an adequate key for species identification. Samples of compact bone from humans (n = 5) and Assam macaques (n = 5) - including humerus (n = 20), radius (n = 20), ulna (n = 20), femur (n = 20), tibia (n = 20) and fibula (n = 20) - were processed using conventional histological techniques. 100 secondary osteons from each sample were evaluated under light microscopy. Parameter measurements included: diameter, perimeter and area of Haversian canal and osteon; distance between centers of Haversian canals; and ratio between diameter of Haversian canal and osteon. Four parameters, including diameters and areas of Haversian canal and osteon, demonstrated significantly higher (P < 0.05) values in humans than in Assam macaques. Therefore, compact bone microstructure could thus be used as a potential tool to differentiate human and nonhuman primates. 2018-01-24T04:39:21Z 2018-01-24T04:39:21Z 2015-09-01 Journal 18726283 03790738 2-s2.0-84939575162 10.1016/j.forsciint.2015.06.018 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=84939575162&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/44204
