HA16

Bone16o
Within the primary bone matrix, notice the osteocytes in their lacunae. There are just a few Haversian systems (HA16, center) because the bone is not so thick that they are necessary. The staining is not uniform because at this stage the collagen fibers are not well organized in this immature or woven bone.
