Mechanical strengthening observed during layering of engineered collagen matrices (collagen concentration 0.625 mg/mL). A, D: Ultimate tensile strength of uncrosslinked (A) and crosslinked (D) engineered collagen matrices as a function of layering. B, E: Non-linear decrease in thickness per layer of uncrosslinked (B) and crosslinked (E) engineered collagen matrices as a function of layering. C, F: Non-linear increase in density of engineered collagen matrices of uncrosslinked (A) and crosslinked (D) engineered collagen matrices as a function of layering.
