Abstract
Human bone mineral was studied using solid-state 31P NMR with cross-polarization (CP) from protons. The CP efficiency was determined for trabecular and cortical bone tissue from human adults and compared with synthetic mineral standards. The study shows the similarity between carbonatoapatite of type B and bone mineral as shown by their CP behaviour. The method can be used for the characterization of synthetic apatite-based implant materials.
