Ribose‐related differences in bound water fraction and secondary structure of collagen I of bone. After 4 weeks of incubation, the bound water fraction was lower for 0.5 M ribose than for 0.0 M and 0.1 M ribose groups (A). This difference coincided with a lower Amide I subpeak ratio for the 0.5 M ribose than for the 0.0 M ribose group (B). Compared with the control group, the hydroxyproline‐to‐proline ratio was higher with incubation in PBS with ribose (C), while there was not ribose‐related difference in the mineral‐to‐matrix ratio (D). a p < 0.05 for group versus 0.0 ribose and b p < 0.05 for group versus 0.5 M ribose from Dunn's multiple comparison test.
