Description

This folder contains the z-stacks of confocal images of microdamage formation in individual trabeculae, tested in pure fatigue tensile mode. The images are related to Figure 3 of the paper "Microdamage formation in individual bovine trabeculae during fatigue testing" (Frank et al., 2020). Pre-staining of initial microcracks is shown in red with Alizarin Red S and staining after mechanical testing in green with Calcein. The sample tested for 1500 cycles indicates no damage. The sample tested for 2100 cycles shows one linear microcrack. The sample tested for 3000 cycles illustrates advanced microdamage formation.
