Notes:
Summary Human teeth were used to obtain cementum. Collagen could not be significantly solubilized from the cementum by salt and acetic acid extraction or by pepsin digestion. CNBr digestion (86%) of cementum and subsequent carboxymethyl cellulose chromatography suggests that human cementum consists of type I collagen only as identified by amino acid and hexose analyses.
