Tensile properties of (1) PADM firm and (2) pliable over time. (A) Ultimate tensile stress and (B) Young’s modulus. Tensile properties were measured using an Instron 5680 fitted with a 1-kN load cell and pneumatic grips. On average, there was an initial decrease until day 25 of implantation followed by a significant increase between days 25 and 30 in both ultimate tensile stress and Young’s modulus.
PADM: porcine-derived acellular dermal matrix.
