Mechanical characterization protocol of GF and GF-tissue composites. a) The testing apparatus was assembled to compress the GF with homemade compression platens. b) A typical stress-strain curve for GF displays elastic behavior between 0–14% compressive strain. c) The testing method designed to measure the quasi-static and viscoelastic compressive properties of GF with and without cell culture (not drawn to scale).
