Özet
In this study, it was aimed to reveal the physical and chemical characterization of thebone structures during body development periods (prepubertal period, periodbetween adolescence and adulthood) and after (young adult period and old adultperiod) in male and female guinea pigs. In this study, 40 guinea pigs (20 male,20 female) were used. Morphometric measurements, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analy-sis for mineral levels, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis for surface area, andporosity analysis were applied to the bones. The male guinea pigs had greater valuesthan females in the other three categories, with the exception of the second group,when the females have higher values in morphometric measurements. Ca levels roseup to the third group, as did P levels in the males, peaking in the third group anddeclining in the fourth. As with phosphorus, there was a progressive rise in femalesfrom the first to the fourth group. Fe, Zn, and Sr elements had the greatest values inboth genders in the first group. In all four groups, the females had greater Zn levelsthan males. The highest Ca/P ratio was found in the third male group and the fourthfemale group. This study revealed that adolescence, adulthood, and gender are effec-tive in the physical and chemical characterization of bone structure in guinea pigs.
