Average fluctuations (in percent) according to contact and non-contact areas relative to the fluctuations of the contact area for collagen I in plateau i at the midpoint of each plateau phase (* shows significance with p≤0.05 with respect to collagen, contact area plateau i), as well as the fluctuations at the same timepoints during control experiments where buffer exchange occurred using only normoosmotic buffer.
