A simple, inexpensive method has been developed for measuring the position of the back, projected onto the sagittal plane, during flexion. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were attached to the skin overlying the T6, L1, L3 and L5 vertebrae. They started

The instantaneous displacement and creep of the caudal end-plate were measured during compression of six segments of cadaveric lumbar spine. Each segment consisted of a disc attached to the two adjacent vertebrae. It was subjected to an applied load

A computer-based image analysis system has been developed as a research tool in total hip replacement. The system has been programmed to take multiple measurements from coronal plane radiographs. Poor quality radiographic images can be enhanced and s

Gelatin gels were prepared which incorporated triammonium orthophosphate solution at pH 8.5—9.5. Hydroxyapatite was precipitated within these gels by covering their surfaces with calcium nitrate solution. When the hydroxyapatite within the surface

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) was precipitated from solutions containing dissolved proteins at a range of concentrations, and the precipitates examined by scanning electron microscopy. In the absence of protein, HAP formed granular aggregates; however, as pro

Thirty ligamenta flava were dissected from pig lumbar spines with their attachments to the bone of the laminae still intact. These specimens were tested to failure, in tension, at strain rates of 0.03 and 0.2 s-1. Video recordings were made of the sp

Setting times, volume after setting, injectability and hardness (at 37 degrees C in contact with Ringer's solution) were determined for cements made of mixtures of calcium sulphate hemihydrate (CS) and hydroxyapatite (HA) with a range of compositions

Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) hydrogels have been used, or suggested for use, in a wide range of biomedical applications. In many of these applications, the mechanical properties of the gel are important for its proper functioning. These

The influence of water on the physical properties of a hydrogel is important for understanding natural tissues and in designing synthetic materials to replace them. In this study, poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) was used as a model system
