Figure 3.

The mechanical properties of composite biomaterials containing modified chitosan (MCh) as the third network: (A) Stress-strain profiles; (B) The linear dependence of stress-strain profiles used to evaluate the compression elastic moduli; (C) Maximum sustained compression (light grey) and compressive nominal stress (dark grey), p = 0.048; (D) The values of compressive elastic modulus, p = 0.331. All values are presented as the average of at least three measurements ± standard deviations.
