Postnatal development of the thoracic Iimb bones İn New Zealand rabbİt

Abstract

In this research, osteologic development of the bones of thoracic limb on the 72 New Zealand rabbit was investigated within a period of birth through 198th postnatal day. The bonesof thoracic limb were stained by use of alizarin red-s and
alcian blue double staining method. Measuring of the bones were obtained by using a 150 mm calipers. The results were displayed by
photography and graphics. Likewise, numerical data obtained were analysed and evaluated by use of computer with X" and T test.
The data revealed that lenght of the bones in right legs was significantly higher than that of the left legs (p<0,09), thus, primary and
secondary ossification centers in the bones of thoracic limbs were obtained in detai!. Beginning of the ossification in all the bones of
thoracic limbs except the carpal bones and os coracoides was determined before parturation. The ossification rate was found to be
very high within the first IS weeks. Later, it was shown that ossification decreased gradually for 13 weeks period. Ceasing of the ossification in the thoracic limb was determined after 28 weeks of the postnatal development. In the last period, the cartilage tissue was
seen in the joint cartilages, both end of the clavicula, and cartilages of the scapula.

Yeni Zelanda tavşanında ön ekstremitelerin postnatal osteolojik gelişimi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada toplam 72 adet erkek Yeni Zelanda tavşanı'nın ön ekstremiteleri üzerinde, doğumdan 198. güne kadar osteolojik gelişim incelenmiştir. Ön ekstremite kemikleri, double staining yöntemiyle, alizarin red-S ve alcian blue kullanılarak boyanmıştır. 150 mm'lik kumpas yardımıyla ölçüler alınmıştır. Elde edilen boyama ve ölçüm sonuçları, fotoğraf ve grafiklerle gösterilmiş, rakamsal bulgular anlamlarıyla birlikte sunulmuştur. Rakamsal veriler üzerinde bilgisayar ortamında Ki-kare testi, T testi ve çoklu varyans analizi uygulanmıştır. Tavşanın ön ekstremite kemiklerinde ölçülerin dönemlere, sağ ve sol bacaklara göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ölçüde farklılaştığı (p
