摘要: The remarkable mechanical properties of bone are due to its hierarchical structure which is optimized at all levels hierarchy. At the lowest level, a nanocomposite collagen and mineral particles. quality this material crucial for performance as whole. In chapter we review composition nanoscale, report several examples on how may be affected by disease or treatment strategies. Keywords: bone; hydroxyapatite; collagen; osteoporosis; osteogenesis imperfecta; fluorosis; bone density distribution; small-angle X-ray scattering
