Raman-based mineral-to-matrix ratio at periosteal, middle and endosteal intracortical locations of (a) young, (b) lean, (c) obese and (d) bypass femora. 10 point scans were made per cortical location. Per.S: Periosteal area, Mid.C: Mid-cortical area; End.S: Endosteal area. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001 when comparing the obese, lean and bypass groups. n = 6/group.
