Mechanical properties and matrix cross-linking in explanted scaffolds. Biaxial stress strain analysis showing tension vs. stretch plots, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showing thermal denaturation temperatures (Td) of collagen scaffolds (top panel) and elastin scaffolds (bottom panel) after subdermal implantation in control rats and in diabetic rats. *indicates statistical significance.
