Biochemical and biomechanical properties of constructs from phase II. Collagen/WW (a) was greater with increasing TGF-β1 treatment, though GAG/WW (b) was not affected by TGF-β1 supplementation. Instantaneous (c), relaxed (d), and Young’s moduli (e) were higher with continuous and intermittent TGF-β1 supplementation than without GF treatment, and intermittent treatment led to increased biomechanical properties relative to no GF treatment. Letters denote significance within each cell ratio. Groups denoted by different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05).
