Hydrogen-bearing species in the bone mineral environment were investigated using solid-state NMR spectroscopy of powdered bone, deproteinated bone, and B-type carbonated apatite. Using magic-angle spinning and cross-polarization techniques three types of structurally-bound water were observed in these materials. Two of these water types occupy vacancies within the apatitic mineral crystal in synthetic carbonated apatite and deproteinated bone and serve to stabilize these defect-containing crystals. The third water was observed at the mineral surface in unmodified bone but not in deproteinated bone, suggesting a role for this water in mediating mineral-organic matrix interactions. Direct evidence of monohydrogen phosphate in a 1H NMR spectrum of unmodified bone is presented for the first time. We obtained clear evidence for the presence of hydroxide ion in deproteinated bone by 1H MAS NMR. A 1H-31P heteronuclear correlation experiment provided unambiguous evidence for hydroxide ion in unmodified bone as well. Hydroxide ion in both unmodified and deproteinated bone mineral was found to participate in hydrogen bonding with neighboring water molecules and ions. In unmodified bone mineral hydroxide ion was found, through a 1H-31P heteronuclear correlation experiment, to be confined to a small portion of the mineral crystal, probably the internal portion.
A variation of the cross polarization (CP) experiment is discussed. The method requires two scans where the difference signal is equivalent to the I spin magnetization that is transferred to the S spins. The acquired signal is equivalent to F1 sum projection of a two-dimensional (2D) heteronuclear correlation experiment and is obtained by just two scans without the need to increment the indirect time domain t1. Any polarization transfer method and any kind of spin manipulations during the t1 incrementation period of a 2D NMR experiment can be applied. The method allows fast measurements of the CP transfer, particularly if various S spins signal overlap and is good for spectral editing of I spin signals with contact to S spins. Various examples for biomaterials are presented. Most importantly, this novel approach is ideal for detailed investigations of organicmineral interfaces in bone, here demonstrated for O-phospho-L-serine as simple model compound.
A solid-state NMR comparison of the mineral structure in bone from diseases joints in the horse
(2007)
In this work, subchondral cortical bone material is investigated from the joints of five horses, three of which presented with no clinical signs or radiographic signs of osteoarthritis and two of which suffered osteoarthritis joint disease, as judged by clinical and radiographic assessment and histological findings. The horse is a good model for osteoarthritis in humans, so the aim of this study is to use nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) for a detailed investigation of the bone structure in bone material affected by osteoarthritis. In particular, we report on the assessment of the mineral structure of these samples as viewed by solid-state NMR.
