Abstract
To elucidate age-related change of mineral contents in human bones, the mineral content and density of human calcanei were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Calcanei were removed from 27 subjects (17 men and 10 women) who died in the age range from 40–98 yr old.
Both the inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry indicated that there were agedependent decreases of the mineral contents and density in the men’s calcaneus in the age range from 40–98 yr, but not in the women’s calcaneus in the age range from 42–87 yr. It was also found that the calcanean masses of the men and women remained constant within the same age range until 98 yr.
