Abstract:
In this work, chondroitin sulfate (CS) was extracted from chicken leg bone soup using the heat-resin static adsorption extraction (HSAE) method. The HSAE method was optimized as follows: resin dosage, 10%; adsorption time, 4.3 h; eluent concentration, 2 M; eluent time, 1.3 h, under which the yield of CS1 from the bone soup reached 0.14% and the recovery rate was 67.35%. CS2, as reference, was obtained from the ends of chicken leg bone using enzymatic method. CS1 and CS2, together with other glycosaminoglycans, were confirmed using agarose-gel electrophoresis. The average molecular weight of CS1 and CS2 was 35.81 kDa and 37.18 kDa, respectively. The structures of CS1 and CS2 were compared using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography, and no significant difference was observed. Overall, the HSAE method was proposed to be a promising approach for the coproduction of CS and bone soup.

Muscles that Move the Leg
Anterior Compartment
The quadriceps femoris, the most visible muscle of the anterior compartment, is integral for leg extension and thigh flexion. It is formed by merging four distinct muscles — the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius, and rectus femoris. The quadriceps tendon, a shared tendon of the four quadriceps muscles, is affixed...
