Figure 7. NRVM Force Generation influenced by Maturation Time after Plating.

Figure 7

(a, b) Balance of surface stress within NRVM plated on flat and topography substrata, respectively. (c) Compiled maximum surface stress found in NRVM plated on micropost or flat substrata and compared one and three days after plating. (d, e) Balance of surface tension within NRVM plated on flat and topography substrata, respectively. (f) Compiled maximum surface tension found in NRVM plated on micropost or flat substrata and compared one and three days after plating. (c, f) N=15 cells per condition with 3 contraction samples per cell from at least three experiments reported per condition. Statistical Significance: * p<0.05.
