Picrosirius red staining and quantification of collagen area between mesh fibers using polarized light microscopy. (A–E) Collagen fibers between the mesh fibers of each device after 180 days. The color hue of the fibers represents the relative collagen thicknesses (in order of thinnest to thickest): green, yellow, orange, and red. (F) Quantification of the total area and proportion of collagen (defined by color hue) in each mesh after 180 days. Significant differences (p < 0.05) are denoted (*). Scale bar represents 50 μm. (For interpretation of the references to color in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the web version of this article.)
