Metabolic assessment of the engineered tissues. All the measurement was performed within 3 days after media collection. There was no significant difference in metabolic rate of each group. Six samples from the each group were used for the measurement
| Lactate produced/Glucose consumed (mol/mol) | Lactate dehydrogenase (10−3U/hr/construct) | Glucose consumption (μmol/hr/construct) | |
