Rectangular coordinate plot of the orientation distribution function, N(θ) sin(θ) of phosphate ν1 for wild-type and oim∕oim groups. The average orientation angles are 22±3 deg for the wild-type group and 28±3 deg for the oim∕oim group. Note that the carbonated apatite is preferentially aligned along the backbone axis of collagen (x direction).
