Figure 3

Whole blood clotting. Scaffolds were incubated with heparinized whole blood. Free RBC, outside of the clot, were lysed and absorbance measured. SB50 showed the rapid clotting (lowest free RBC absorbance). Data normalized to PBS: phosphate buffered saline addition, negative control. HB: heparinized blood showed slowest clotting time. CitB: citrate clotted with Ca2+, positive control. Nomenclature for all samples in Table 1. Similar Greek letter indicates no statistically significant difference (*p < 0.05).
