A combined atomic force microscopy and nanoindentation technique to investigate the elastic properties of bone structural units
To our knowledge, this study applied for the first time a recently developed combination of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and nanoindentation on trabecular and compact bone tissue. The major aim was to check the advantage of the available AFM-mode over the conventionally used optical microscope. Fir...
