Cartilage Degeneration, Subchondral Mineral and Meniscal Mineral Densities in Hartley and Strain 13 Guinea Pigs.

Consistent with the results obtained with X-ray densitometry, the meniscal calcium content in female Hartley guinea pigs (= 1.3172 mg/meniscus) and female strain 13 guinea pigs (= 1.3347 mg/meniscus) were similar, and both were lower than the meniscal calcium content in the male Hartley guinea pigs (= 1.511 mg/meniscus) although these differences did not reach statistical significance due to large variations in each individual calcium measurement.
