Values are mean ± SD; *line width at half-maximum for images of FTIR imaging parameters: mineral-to-matrix (M/M), carbonate-to-mineral (C/P), crystallinity (XST), collagen maturity (CM), and acid phosphate substitution (HPO4); comparisons are untreated (saline) versus treatment, same sex, same genotype, p values shown if chi square showed significance and Kruskal-Wallis with Bonferroni correction had p < 0.05; FTIR = Fourier transform infrared; FWHM = full width half maximum; WT = wild-type; ALN = alendronate.
