Fig. 5

Bent and fractured collagen fibrils were directly observed in two randomly selected microregions (A and B). SAED patterns with obvious diffraction spots indicated the features of HA crystals, bent and fractured short fibrils with multiple orientations, and the oblique phenomenon of HA crystals was visible.
