Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Isolation of bone collagen for radiocarbon dating is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process that sometimes results in unacceptably low protein recovery. Reports preliminary studies where micro-computed tomography (microCT), a nondestructive technique that uses X-rays to produce high-resolution three-dimensional images of mineralized materials such as bone, is seen to offer promise as a suitable prescreening option for bones of questionable preservation. The bone volume fraction calculated by the scanner software was found to correlate well with collagen recovery in 4 analyzed bones from Etton, United Kingdom. | ||
