Table 1.

Hydrogel maximal moduli and gelation kinetics.

Hydrogel Storage modulus, Mean ± SD [G’, Pa] Loss modulus, Mean ± SD [G”, Pa] Gelation rate, Mean ± SD [Pa/min] Time to 50% gelation, Mean ± SD [t50, min] Time to 95% gelation, Mean ± SD [t95, min]
S8 258 ± 17A 37 ± 2A 51 ± 9A 2.05 ± 0.51A 4.02 ± 0.67A
B8 499 ± 10B 60 ± 3B 96 ± 5B 1.36 ± 0.12A 3.48 ± 0.50A
B10 608 ± 9C 66 ± 4B 118 ± 16B 1.44 ± 0.25A 3.65 ± 0.70A
S/F 305 ± 28D 44 ± 14B 65 ± 4A 1.56 ± 0.14A 3.97 ± 0.26A

Mean ± standard error of the mean (SD), N = 3. For each parameter significance was evaluated by a One-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey post-hoc test. Conditions not linked by the same letter(s) are statistically different (p < 0.05). S8 – spinal cord ECM hydrogel 8 mg/mL, B8 – bone ECM hydrogel 8 mg/mL, B10 – bone ECM hydrogel 10 mg/mL, S/F- spinal cord ECM hydrogel 8 mg/ml/fibrin at a 75/25 ratio.
