was clear from the data obtained by polarized light microscope (Figs. 4G and H) that the Haversian system is found as an individual canal system, the boundaries, which are marked by an occasional very faint line representing what has been called the cement line by Cook et al. [47]. Osteocytes, found in cavities (lacunae) within the matrix, were noticed. Dark precipitate in the form of a thick black line may indicate the presence of calcium phosphate in…
