Conclusion
Summary of the data obtained in the present study indicates that the method used for bone deproteinization permits investigation of the mineral bone component with retained structure of the hydroxyapatite crystals. The continuous mineral component is a composite, spatially organized structure with amorphous and crystalline segments. The rather high rigidity of this component indicates that the elastic properties of bone tissue are largely a factor of the mineral component. The strength and specific deformation energy of the mineral bone component are significantly enhanced due to effective distribution and transmission of micro stresses by the organic component in the bone biocomposite itself.
