FIG. 5.
Collagen organization of C-ACL and explanted graft-repaired tissues. Mean gray scale values were not significantly different between tissue types (A). Representative images of Picrosirius Red staining used for semiquantitative analysis of collagen birefringence from fresh (C, D) and frozen (E, F) BLB graft repaired tissues compared with C-ACL (B). 10× magnification Scale bar = 200 μm.
