Effect of PLIUS at 30 and 100 mW/cm2 on SO4 incorporation over 24 h normalised to corresponding untreated controls (100%) for chondrocytes over an 8-day culture period in monolayer. PLIUS was applied for 20 min each day from day 3. Data for PLIUS treated chondrocytes in monolayer has been plotted as a percentage of that measured for corresponding untreated controls. Values represent mean ± standard deviation for 12 replicate specimens from two separate experiments. There were no statistically significant differences between PLIUS-treated constructs and corresponding controls
