Figure 7.
Scaffold-to-scaffold (A) and scaffold-to-meniscus (B) constructs were formed and cultured for ≤9 weeks in vitro. In both cases, mechanical strength of the interface increased with time (F, G), and new matrix was deposited at the interface (Scaffold-to-scaffold: C, D; Meniscus-to-scaffold: E, H) (hematoxylin-eosin [C,E] and picosirius red staining [D,H,] original magnification ×10). (Abbreviations: S, scaffold; M, meniscus.)
