Fig 3. Analysis of the fibrotic lesion.

Fig 3

(A) Representative IR spectra of the fibrous scar six months after injury, of grey matter and of reference collagen. (B) Spectroscopic images showing the intensity of the band 1242 cm-1 in pseudo color. They depict the distribution of collagen in control and alginate-implanted samples one and six months post-injury. Scale bar: 0.5 mm. (C) Fibrous scar thickness of control and alginate-implanted samples at one and six months post-injury, n = 5–7, two-tailed t-test, *: p < 0.05.
