Figure 4. Biomechanical properties of decellularization pancreas.

Figure 4

(A) Representative deflection plot from AFM evaluation of native and decellularized pancreas shows a steeper slope than force curve of decellularized pancreas from native pancreas, indicating higher Young’s modulus. (B) Bar graph representatives of AFM force curve shows on average 3 times higher stiffness in the decellularized pancreas than native pancreas.
