Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSimultaneous Presence of Growth and Remodeling in the Bone Adaptation TheorySeyyed Amir Hooshiar Ahmedi, Gholamreza Rouhi, Hamidreza Katouzian, Seyyed Ali Hooshiar AhmediMechanical forces acting on bone during growth affect their final shape and strength. Mechanoregulation of bone growth is maybe recognized in embryogenesis, and also in the adaptation of the adult skeleton to changes in mechanical loading. By combining equations describing bone remodeling and growth with an iterative finite element analysis, a computational model to simulate the simultaneous effects of bone … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,166 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroanatomy and Histochemistry of the Salt Glands of the Kentish Plover, Charadrius alexandrines (Aves, Charadriidae)Bashir M. JarrarProblem statement: Histological and histochemical investigations on the salt glands of birds are very limited. The present study was performed to characterize the microanatomy and histochemistry of the salt glands of the Kentish plover (Charadrius alexandrines). Approach: Salt glands of the bird under study were fixed, dehydrated, cleared, impregnated and blocked out by paraffin wax. Paraffin sections were utilized in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,923 accessesView PDF Cite
