Figure 7

Calcium content as measured in the microsphere-based scaffolds over weeks 0, 3, and 6. Calcium content in the acellular constructs (TCP and GRADIENT groups) was subtracted from the calcium content in the corresponding cellular constructs. The calcium contents of the TCP and GRADIENT constructs at week 0 are not reported because of insufficient sample size (n < 3). (A) Total calcium content in micrograms per construct. (B) Normalized calcium content in micrograms per micrograms DNA. All values are expressed as the average ± SD (n = 3–5), p < 0.05. @Statistically significant change over week 0 value, #statistically significant change over its value at previous time point, *statistically significant change over the PLGA group at same time point, $statistically significant change over the TCP and GRADIENT groups at same time point, &statistically significant change over the TCP group at same time point, ^statistically significant change over the GRADIENT group at same time point, and %statistically significant change over the CS group at same time point.
