Mechanical strength of 8-week old cell sheet before and after decellularization. (A) Frequency sweeps of cell sheets and ECM sheet after decellularization. The elastic modulus (G') and viscous modulus (Gā€) remained constant over all frequencies. (B) Comparison of the average modulus at frequency 1 Hz. The ECM scaffold maintained elastic modulus, but had significant lower viscous modulus than the cell sheet.
