ULTIMATE TENSILE STRENGTH AND RUPTURE PRESSURE OF PORCINE INTESTINE. SOLDERED INTESTINES (GREY COLUMNS) WERE LASER SOLDERED USING 5% GNR-COLLAGEN NANOCOMPOSITES AS 1.83 OR 2.33 W/CM2 FOR 4 MINUTES AND ARE COMPARED TO RUPTURED INTESTINE (WHITE COLUMN) AND INTACT INTESTINE (BLACK COLUMN). ALSO, THE RED LINE INDICATES THE RUPTURE PRESSURE OF INTESTINE IN THESE CONDITIONS.
