Figure 4.
Normal stress as a function of compressive strain for fibrin-collagen, fibrin, and collagen networks. Fibrin matrix was formed from two-fold diluted human platelet-poor plasma (fibrinogen concentration 2–3.5 mg/mL) and the final collagen concentration was 1.5 mg/mL. Each curve is an average over three constructs prepared and measured under the same conditions (M±SD).
