Transmitted light microscopes

Application number: EN - 911

The method with the highest informative value for determining the age of red deer is the dental cement zone method. The layers of the molars is light (summer) and dark (winter) can be seen well under a microscope. If you add a year to the result, then you know how old the game was when it was shot. Thus, the microscopic examination is a simple but effective test method. Invalid search result.

Additional information

A point of reference for determining the age of red deer can be the microscopic examination of the molars, the back teeth. The method with the highest significance is the dental cement zone method. Since dental cement and replacement dentin are deposited in layers with a certain annual periodicity, one can use these layers to diagnose the age of a wild animal with some accuracy. These layers in light (summer) and dark (winter) can be seen well under a microscope. If you add a year to the result (milk teeth), then you know how old the game was when it was shot
