Karakteristik Atom Mineral pada Osteoporosis dengan Arsitektur Porosis dan Nonporosis

There was variance result in increased bone mineral density (BMD) due to calcium intake which indicates involvement of another mineral atomic in bone structure development. Bone mineral atomic quantity is the level or concentration of mineral atomic in bone structure. Aim of this study was to compare mineral atomic characteristic in architecture (scanning electron microscope/SEM) porotic and non porotic figure. Ten osteoporosis patients with porotic SEM and seven non porotic SEM patients were involved in this study. Bone which was obtained from fracture surgery was analyzed for microstructure by SEM and for bone atomic mineral characteristic by X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Analysis of SEM and XRF were done in Physics Laboratory State University of Malang. This study was done from August 2010 to January 2011. t-test was done to analyse the difference of atomic mineral level. Scanning electron microscope result showed the difference in porosity and trabecular integrity between porotic and non porotic SEM. Analysis of XRF showed atomic composition was higher in porotic SEM such as P, S, Fe, Ni, Cr, Pb and Si. Conversely atomic composition such as Cu, Zn, Ca, and Mo, was higher in non porotic SEM. There was no significant difference between each groups (p>0.05). In conclusion, the development of porocity in osteoporosis is not depend on bone mineral atomic quantity
