Abstract:
Successful sample collection is an obligatory step in the biomedical research. It is well known that choosing right pre-processing sample collection techniques can improve effectiveness of result to a far extent. We experimentally compared two techniques of sample collection namely group A: Non-anatomical de-muscling and group B: Anatomical dissective de-muscling. Each group comprising of 10 animals undergone critical size (15mm) defects (CSD) in the radius, forming a defective long bone rabbit model. We found that a technique employing an anatomical dissective sample collection has faster sample excavation time without much requirement for post-excavation de-muscling. Based on the results obtained, this study concludes that the anatomical dissective approach of sample collection is a better collection method comparing with that of non-anatomical dissective sample collection. Other comparative diagnostic and biomechanical testing is the future arena of research on sample collection and evaluation.
