Figure 2.

Degradation profile by % weight loss analysis of the three experimental membranes (Derma Fina, Evolution Standard and Duo-Teck) over immersion periods up to 21 days in: (a) PBS, (b) trypsin and (c) collagenase from Clostridium histolyticum. Values shown are mean and standard deviation (n = 3). Significant differences between membranes within the same immersion solution are noted by low-case letters. Differences between different immersion solutions within the same membrane are pointed out with capital letters. Multiple comparisons were performed by Student-Newman-Keuls p < 0.05).
