Informed Consent: For this type of study, informed consent is not required.
Human and Animal Rights: Nasal septal cartilage was obtained postmortem from a healthy male bull slaughtered for routine meat production purposes. No procedures were performed on a living animal, and no animal was killed specifically for this research; therefore, this work did not constitute a regulated animal experiment and did not require institutional animal ethics committee approval. Tissue procurement and handling were performed in a licensed facility under routine veterinary oversight and in accordance with institutional biosafety policies, consistent with the welfare principles reflected in the National Research Council’s Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.
